About T-RIZE

T-RIZE Group is building the next-generation capital markets infrastructure—merging institutional-grade tokenization, privacy-preserving federated AI, and public-permissioned blockchain architecture. Backed by a Research Chair in Tokenization and over $2B in signed MOUs and executed client contracts, we’re onboarding global real estate, private credit, and infrastructure assets into a compliant, scalable Web3-native ecosystem.

Our platform supports fully collateralized digital securities, programmable yield instruments, and smart contracts capable of enabling convertible on-chain financing structures—from institutional-grade SAFTs to tokenized real estate-backed convertibles.

Role Overview

We are seeking a Chief Business Officer (CBO) with a sharp institutional mind, a Web3-native edge, and a track record of executing complex capital raises across real estate, tokenization, infrastructure finance, and decentralized capital markets.

You will lead all aspects of capital strategy—from high-touch roadshows with global VCs and sovereign funds to structuring hybrid tokenized products for crypto-native capital allocators. Your leadership will guide the onboarding of $B+ worth of tokenized deals across regions, and position T-RIZE as the dominant player in programmable RWAs and digitally distributed capital formation.

Key Responsibilities
  1. Institutional & Web3 Capital Formation
    • Lead dual-track capital strategies, combining traditional equity and convertible note structures with tokenized instruments (SAFT, SAFE, token warrants).
    • Raise across both institutional (LPs, sovereign wealth funds, asset managers) and Web3-native channels (crypto VCs, DAOs, launchpads).
    • Champion innovative financing instruments, including:
    • Tokenized convertible bonds backed by real estate cash flow or infrastructure revenue.
    • Programmable collateralization structures (e.g., dynamic LTV token baskets).
    • DeFi-compatible compliance wrappers for institutional investors (Reg D, Reg S, MiFID II).
  2. Strategic Origination: Real Estate, Infra & Tokenized Credit
    • Drive strategic expansion across:
    • Real estate tokenization (residential, commercial, REIT-like structures).
    • Tokenized project finance in construction and infrastructure (e.g., hotels, airports, utilities).
    • Digitally distributed credit, including invoice financing, bridge loans, and ESG instruments.
    • Structure deals with both collateralized and equity-like characteristics.
    • Serve as the point of entry for real asset owners, fund managers, developers, and credit originators.
  3. Regulatory Alignment & Compliance-Centric Onboarding
    • Oversee onboarding aligned with FINRA, SEC, MiCA, and FCA regulatory frameworks.
    • Collaborate with compliance and legal to ensure multi-jurisdictional readiness.
    • Lead design of onboarding architecture compatible with tokenized securities, digital KYC, and institutional-grade custody (Fireblocks, Texture Capital, etc.).
  4. Ecosystem & Strategic Partnerships
    • Build relationships with:
    • Top-tier VCs (Sequoia, a16z, Circle Ventures, etc.).
    • Exchanges and launchpads (Base, etc.).
    • Broker-Dealers and Fund Admins supporting Security Token Offerings (STOs).
    • Partner with DAOs, DeFi platforms, and traditional GP/LP networks to unlock co-investment opportunities.
    • Structure revenue-sharing and listing agreements with distributors, custodians, and digital banks.
  5. Market Presence & Thought Leadership
    • Represent T-RIZE at:
    • Institutional forums (Milken, IIF, World Economic Forum).
    • Crypto-native events (Token2049, Permissionless, ETHGlobal).
    • Blended capital summits (IMF/World Bank events, Sovereign Investor Forums).
    • Contribute to the intellectual leadership around:
    • On-chain collateralized convertibles,
    • Programmable securities issuance,
    • DePIN and ESG-compliant tokenized infrastructure.
Qualifications
  • 15+ years in capital markets, real estate finance, investment banking, or Web3 capital formation with a track record of raising over $100M+.
  • Strong expertise in structuring:
  • Convertible debt, tokenized real-world instruments, or credit-enhanced products.
  • Deep network of allocators across both Web3 (crypto-native funds, DAOs) and TradFi (PE firms, sovereign funds, pension managers).
  • Strong regulatory fluency across US, EU, MENA, and APAC frameworks for digital securities and token issuance.
  • Strategic mindset with an ability to move between compliance, deal structuring, go-to-market, and community capital.
  • Bonus: Experience with tokenomics design, token incentive structuring, or blockchain protocol ecosystems (e.g., Avalanche, Base, Ethereum L2s).
Why Join T-RIZE?
  • Patent-Pending Technology: Build with a proprietary tokenization engine built for programmable compliance and AI-driven deployment.
  • $2B+ Signed Commitments: High-volume, real-world asset deals already in onboarding and tokenization prep.
  • Advanced Infrastructure: Help deploy next-gen features—convertible instruments, AI-enhanced onboarding, and real-time capital flow automation.
  • Global Capital Edge: Interface directly with LPs, funds, and exchanges from New York to Dubai to Singapore.
  • Leadership Visibility: Work alongside the CEO and Research Chair to shape the capital architecture of the next era in finance.
  • Elite Incentives: Competitive salary, token upside, and performance-based bonuses tied to capital raised and vertical growth achieved.
