Developers and companies around the world build on it, and the SDF team is expanding to support the rapidly growing and changing Stellar ecosystem.

In this business development role, you will engage with a wide variety of organizations important to growing Stellar’s DeFi ecosystem.

• Foster strong relationships within Web3 to support the launch and growth of Stellar-based DeFi (i.e. security firms, bridges, exchanges, oracles).
• Work closely with product and engineering to develop new business opportunities.
• Serve as an internal leader to drive initiatives and advocate for ecosystem partners.
• Work with the ecosystem and marketing teams to support the launch and execution of new programs and initiatives for our global partners.
• Develop innovative strategies to support the Stellar ecosystem and their businesses.
• Represent SDF at conferences and events around the world.

You have:

• 5+ years of relevant crypto, web3, and/or DeFi experience with at least 1 year working in (or closely with) the decentralized finance space.
• Existing relationships with wallets, protocols, and exchanges
• DeFi knowledge: you’re an adaptable self-starter and self-learner in crypto, DeFi, and the Stellar network.
• Significant experience working with internal and external stakeholders to execute projects and/or business negotiations.
• Demonstrated ability to execute complex projects through successful completion.
• Exceptional oral and written communication skills in English.
