Responsibilities
Own TVL growth across token demand, staking, and vault deposits — and set, track, and report the growth and financial metrics that govern it
Lead capital formation end-to-end — raise the Series A from crypto-native investors and secure the seed liquidity and incentive capital needed to bootstrap and retain TVL
Own the FISC token economy and capital-markets strategy — tokenomics, emissions, points and incentive programs, liquidity mining, and bribe-market deployment
Convert and deepen the curator and risk pipeline — turn warm relationships into live, endorsed integrations. Curator trust is the protocol's #1 conversion unlock
Build the capital stack beyond the raise — crypto hedge funds, LPs, and ecosystem partners now; institutional and TradFi allocators as the platform matures
Be the public face of Bitcoin Dollar and FISC — conferences, podcasts, Twitter Spaces, and forums — carrying a credible, transparent narrative
Drive the trust-infrastructure agenda — real-time Proof of Reserves, DeFiLlama and aggregator listings, public risk assessments, and curator endorsements — and forge integrations (Pendle, Morpho, Aave, cross-chain) that extend sBTCD composability and distribution
Lead a small, senior team — hire selectively, set the operating cadence, manage runway and burn, and steward the long-term roadmap toward the multi-asset "Dollar" family, FISC seasons, and DAO governance
Qualification
Required
Personally drove measurable TVL or AUM growth at a DeFi protocol with specific, defensible numbers
Deep crypto-capital-markets fluency — tokenomics and incentive design, lending markets, vaults, leverage, PT/YT and bribe markets, liquidity provisioning, and on-chain analytics
Credible, existing curator and risk-firm relationships, with a proven ability to convert skeptics into live integrations
Demonstrated fundraising — you've raised from crypto VCs and/or allocated as an investor, and can run a Series A
A strong public presence — comfortable as the named face of a protocol on stage, on podcasts, and on X — able to explain novel yield and rebalancing mechanics to a sophisticated, skeptical audience
A player-coach who thrives hands-on in a sub-20-person senior team and builds the playbook rather than managing a large org
High integrity and conviction, genuine comfort with token-weighted comp and early-stage ambiguity, and sound regulatory awareness as the public executive of a Cayman non-profit foundation and token issuer
Preferred
Direct working relationships with curators like Re7, Block Analitica, Gauntlet, Steakhouse, or Veda
Prior founder or CEO experience at a DeFi protocol
Stablecoin, yield, or RWA protocol depth
Network into Pendle, Morpho, Aave, or Sky ecosystems
