We’re looking for a deeply connected crypto-native operator to help grow our presence across the perpetual trading ecosystem.

This is not a traditional corporate BD role.

We want someone who already lives inside the trenches of Crypto Twitter, Telegram trading groups, perp communities, gambling circles, affiliate networks, and high-volume trader ecosystems — and knows how to turn relationships into growth, liquidity, and active users.

  • Drive:
    • User acquisition
    • Trading volume
    • Deposits
    • Community growth
    • Referral activity
    • Strategic ecosystem partnerships
  • Launch and manage:
    • Referral campaigns
    • Trading competitions
    • Incentive programs
    • Ambassador/KOL initiatives
    • Cross-community activations
  • Identify growth opportunities across the broader degen/trading ecosystem.
Who You Are

  • Deeply crypto-native
  • Already connected to relevant perp trading circles

Ideal Background

    • Affiliate ecosystems
  • Existing relationships with:
    • KOLs
    • Trading groups
    • Market makers
    • Whale communities
    • Growth affiliates
Bonus Points

  • You’ve previously helped scale a trading product

What Matters Most

We care more about:

  • network
  • execution
  • hustle
  • distribution ability
  • ecosystem knowledge
than polished resumes or corporate experience.

If you already know the right people and know how to activate them, we want to talk
