Solana Foundation - Head of Stablecoins
Requirements
• 7+ years of experience spanning some combination of business development, product strategy, growth, or protocol/ecosystem leadership — ideally in crypto or fintech • A founder's mindset: high agency, comfortable with ambiguity, able to context-switch between a partnership negotiation, an incentive model, and a product spec in the same day • Strong understanding of stablecoin mechanics, DeFi liquidity dynamics, and on-chain incentive design • Proven ability to build and maintain senior relationships with issuers, protocols, and institutional partners • Sharp analytical thinking — comfortable working with data, modeling scenarios, and making trade-offs • Excellent communicator who can translate complex on-chain dynamics into clear strategic narratives for both crypto-native and traditional audiences • Comfortable operating autonomously in a fast-moving, lean, globally distributed team • Direct experience at a stablecoin issuer, DeFi protocol, L1/L2, or crypto-native fund • Background in commercial strategies, tokenomics, or liquidity strategy • Existing relationships with major stablecoin issuers and key DeFi teams building on Solana or across chains • Experience in payments infrastructure or traditional capital markets
Responsibilities
• Define and own Solana Foundation's stablecoin growth strategy end-to-end — from issuer relationships to on-chain distribution and utility • Build and manage relationships with major stablecoin issuers, exchanges, custodians, market makers, and DeFi protocols to deepen stablecoin supply and usage on Solana • Design and oversee commercial strategies, and liquidity initiatives that attract and retain stablecoin capital on-chain • Work closely with product and engineering teams to identify infrastructure gaps, improve developer tooling, and enable new stablecoin use cases (payments, treasury, remittances, DeFi) • Collaborate with ecosystem teams across DeFi, payments, and institutional adoption to ensure stablecoin growth compounds across verticals • Track competitive dynamics across chains, analyze what's working, and adapt strategy quickly • Represent Solana Foundation in executive conversations, industry working groups, and at major conferences
