Job Description

Who We Are and What We are Doing:
Ethena Labs is actively building and deploying a suite of groundbreaking digital dollar products aiming to upgrade money into the internet era.

Our flagship product, USDe, is a synthetic dollar backed by digital assets, and takes the novel approach of using a delta-neutral hedged basis strategy to maintain its peg. This product scaled from zero to $15b in 18 months.

Expanding on this, iUSDe is designed specifically for traditional financial institutions, incorporating necessary compliance features to enable them to access the crypto-native rewards our protocol generates, in an institutional-friendly manner.

Ethena has also developed USDtb: a fiat backed GENIUS compliant stablecoin in partnership with BlackRock which has scaled to ~$2b.

These products are also offered in a whitelabel stablecoin offering where any application, chain, wallet or exchange can launch their own stablecoin on Ethena's back-end infrastructure.

Through these offerings, Ethena Labs is not just creating new financial products; we are building the foundational infrastructure for a more open, efficient, and interconnected global financial system.

Open job offerings will be focused on two new major product lines coming to market in the next few months.

Join us!!

The Role 

As a Business Development Associate at Ethena Labs, you will play a critical role in expanding the adoption of USDe, USDtb, and other core Ethena product lines via partnerships, integrations, and relationship building. You will work with the Commercial team and related functions to efficiently establish relationships, onboard, then close integrations that will bring Ethena products to new users and pools of capital. 

This role is ideal for someone who has strong verbal and written communication skills, is a creative problem solver, and has deep domain expertise in stablecoins and decentralized finance. The candidate should also have an extensive network across the industry across other operators, along with investors and traders.
