Ecosystem Associate, APAC
Monad Labs is the team building Monad, the performant and parallel EVM Layer-1 blockchain. We are a team of systems engineers and community builders who are on a mission to help crypto eat the world. After recently raising $225M in series A funding led by Paradigm, we are growing our team.
The Role
The Ecosystem Growth team accelerates the growth of the Monad ecosystem by supporting committed teams that are building ambitious products on Monad.
As an Ecosystem Growth Associate, you’ll conceptualize, implement, and manage growth initiatives for early- to mid-stage builders across all verticals (DeFi, gaming, NFTs, etc) to become thriving ecosystem projects. You will use both creativity and data-driven evidence to identify which strategies and support verticals to prioritize. You will manage, maintain, and improve internal and externally-facing systems and processes. You are ready and willing to tackle any challenge, no problem too small. You are someone who is self-sufficient, organized, and ambitious with existing experience in L1/L2 ecosystem development.
This role is crucial to Monad’s success, and offers a unique opportunity to impart massive impact on the trajectory of the Monad ecosystem.
