- Experience defining and managing mint/burn controls, funds-flow rules, transaction limits, and operational safeguards for digital money products.
- Experience partnering with engineering to navigate architecture decisions and technical trade-offs.
- Demonstrated ability to balance long-term platform investments with near-term delivery needs.
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, particularly with engineering, security, compliance, legal, and analytics.
- Strong judgment balancing regulatory rigor, system reliability, and product velocity in ambiguous and high-stakes environments.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to simplify technical complexity for diverse stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications
