• Lead multiple engineering teams delivering custody, transaction authorization, key management, wallet infrastructure, and blockchain integration capabilities.
• Own the architecture, technical strategy, and roadmap for a distributed MPC custody platform, including disaster recovery, governance, transaction policies, and security controls.
• Partner with Product, Security, Business Development, and executive leadership to prioritize engineering investments based on customer, regulatory, security, and business requirements.
• Support multiple product deployment models, including managed‑platform and licensed‑software environments.
• Establish engineering practices that meet demanding security, compliance, resilience, and governance requirements as the platform progresses toward regulated financial‑institution status.
• Lead engineering response to production incidents, outages, security events, and sensitive key‑management scenarios, ensuring effective resolution and continuous improvement.
• Hire, mentor, and develop engineering managers and senior engineers while establishing a strong leadership culture across the organization.
• Drive the effective adoption of AI‑assisted engineering practices to improve productivity, development quality, and delivery across engineering teams.
• Ensure technical decisions balance scalability, resilience, security, compliance, and long‑term maintainability.

Requirements

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, including at least 5 years leading teams responsible for production‑scale, secure distributed systems.
• Proven experience owning large‑scale, security‑critical platforms from architectural design through production delivery and ongoing operation.
• Deep expertise in modern cryptography and secure key‑management technologies, particularly MPC, threshold signatures, Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), and Hardware Security Modules (HSMs).
• Strong experience designing and operating cloud‑native systems, including Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, observability, and resilient infrastructure.
• Strong understanding of security and compliance frameworks relevant to regulated financial services, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, and AML/KYC, with awareness of regulatory environments such as SEC, CFTC, OCC, and MiCA.
• Experience with digital asset infrastructure spanning areas such as custody, trading, staking, treasury management, and blockchain settlement.
• Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical organizations while maintaining a high engineering and security bar.
• Excellent communication skills, with the credibility to work effectively with executives, institutional customers, auditors, regulators, and other senior stakeholders.
• Experience scaling an engineering organization toward a chartered or licensed financial entity is a strong advantage.
• Background delivering both managed‑service and licensed‑software products is desirable.
