About the Role:

Sui Foundation is looking for an Ecosystem Development Manager to be on the front lines of expanding the Sui blockchain ecosystem. This role is all about being plugged into the Web3 space—spotting early-stage builders, networking with founders, and helping projects get off the ground on Sui. You’ll be engaging directly with developers, sourcing new projects from across the industry, and making sure high-potential teams see Sui as the best place to build. Whether it's at hacker houses, Discord servers, or Web3 meetups, you'll be out there making connections and bringing in the next wave of innovation.

What You’ll Do:

• Scout and source top builders – Identify promising teams, founders, and projects and bring them to Sui

• Live in the trenches – build strong relationships with the broader community online and in-person at events and conferences

• Support and connect – Help onboard projects, provide guidance on how to best leverage the Sui ecosystem, and introduce builders to key resources.

• Bridge communities – Act as a connector between developers, investors, accelerators, and internal teams to drive ecosystem growth.

• Bring fresh ideas – Work closely with the broader ecosystem team to experiment with new ways to attract and support builders.

What We’re Looking For:

• 5+ years of work experience

• Experience in web3, whether through work, contributions to projects, or deep involvement in the community.

• A strong personal network in crypto—builders, founders, investors, or communities.

• Comfortable moving fast, working independently, and finding opportunities that others might miss.

• Experience with ecosystem growth, BD, partnerships, or developer relations is a plus.

Why Join Us?

This is a unique opportunity to be at the center of a growing blockchain ecosystem. You’ll have the freedom to build relationships, work with top-tier teams, and play a key role in shaping the future of Web3 on Sui. If you’re someone who thrives on finding and supporting builders in the space, we’d love to hear from you.
