Trading Lead

The Monad Foundation is a team of dedicated ecosystem and community builders who are on a mission to massively grow the impact of decentralized tech. We believe that the Monad blockchain--the performant and parallel EVM Layer 1--will help decentralized apps eat the world.

The Monad network was built for high frequency: 10,000 TPS, sub-second finality, full EVM compatibility. Trading is the use case that tests that claim hardest, and you’ll be the person who brings the best trading teams to build on it.

You’ll sit in the room when a perps team, a DEX, or a trading terminal decides which chain to deploy on. You’ll own the relationship from first call through launch and beyond, and you’ll be a public voice for trading on the Monad network on podcasts, panels, and in long-form content.

This is a senior individual contributor role with end to end ownership. You’ll work across ecosystem, defi, marketing, and events at Monad Foundation, and alongside core contributors on technical onboarding. Monad Foundation is a core contributor to the Monad protocol, and this role supports builders on the network as one of many ecosystem participants.

Bring leading trading applications to the Monad network: perps and spot DEXs, aggregators, trading terminals, and bots. You’ll run the conversations where a trading team decides which chain to build on.

Build and own a pipeline of top trading startups from first contact through launch on the Monad network, working closely
