**Posted:** 2026-02-23

> Leads strategy and growth for Monad's DeFi ecosystem, owning protocol TVL expansion, RWA integrations, cross-protocol synergies, and onboarding institutional capital. Requires DeFi collaboration experience, RWA expertise, and deep knowledge of lending, AMMs, and yield mechanisms.

## Job Description

## What You Will Do

- Own protocol growth end-to-end. Build tailored growth plans with DeFi protocols on Monad - collaborating on liquidity incentive and co-incentive campaign structures, identifying missing integrations, and tracking TVL and volume against targets. Accountable for their success.
- Build the RWA x DeFi flywheel. Source and manage relationships with tokenized asset issuers and connect them with the right lending protocols, yield vaults, and stablecoin infrastructure on Monad. Design the looping strategies and collateral structures that make RWAs composable and yield-generating onchain.
- Connect the dots across the ecosystem. Identify cross-protocol opportunities that create compounding value - pairing a lending market with a DEX for deeper liquidity loops, or connecting a yield vault with an RWA issuer to expand TVL.
- Bring institutional capital onchain. Work with institutional LPs, asset managers, and capital allocators to identify opportunities to deploy into RWA-backed DeFi products on Monad.

## Who You Are

- Track record of DeFi collaborations and/or ecosystem growth working with a Layer 1, Layer 2, or major protocol affiliated org. Track record of growing TVL and user activity.
- RWA protocols and/or tokenization platforms experience. Understand how tokenized assets move from issuance into productive DeFi yield - collateral structures, redemption mechanics, oracle dependencies.
- Expertise in the inner workings of **lending markets**, **AMMs**, **yield vaults**, and **liquidity incentives**. Diagnose why a protocol isn't growing and propose concrete solutions.
- Institutional relationships. Worked with asset managers, family offices, or similar, and know how to get capital comfortable with DeFi-native infrastructure.
- High autonomy. Hold yourself accountable to metrics, and treat protocol success as your own.
