Job description

As a Solution Architect at Morpho, you'll be part of the Integration Team and work closely with our largest partners (exchanges, custodians, wallets, fintechs, and asset managers) to design and launch robust and compliant integrations. You'll act as the main technical counterpart, bridging partner teams with Morpho's engineering and product teams.

Responsibilities

Shape partner solutions early

Work with Business Development to understand partner needs

Translate requirements into clear technical approaches

Identify constraints, de-risk integrations, and define success criteria

Design end-to-end architectures with partners

Lead the design of integrations with key partners

Define system architecture across APIs, smart contracts, oracles, and custody solutions

Architect around Morpho's core stack: wallets/custody, KYC & access controls, compliance, liquidation tooling, monitoring, and operations

Run architecture workshops to align on user journeys, liquidity strategies, and go-to-market

Drive delivery and execution

Produce clear, actionable deliverables: architecture diagrams, specs, and integration playbooks

Coordinate across internal teams (protocol, product, infra, legal, risk, growth) to unblock launches

Work closely with partner engineering teams to bring solutions to production

Scale what works

Turn field learnings into better product, tooling, and documentation

Identify recurring patterns and contribute to reference architectures and best practices

Stay ahead and communicate clearly

Keep up with DeFi infrastructure, Ethereum, and regulatory developments

Communicate effectively across teams and time zones, keeping complex topics simple and actionable

What Success Looks Like

Within 1 month: Familiar with all of Morpho's codebase and able to answer technical questions from integrators. Has absorbed 80% of Morpho's context and is already making a tangible difference supporting the growth team.

Within 4 to 6 months (end of probation): Fully autonomous on technical questions, able to support growth without needing to involve others from the integration team. Smoothly onboards integrators and reassures partners. Knows where to find answers and has improved documentation and internal processes.

Within 12 months: A key partner and reference point for the growth team and Morpho partners, actively supporting their expansion.

Must-have Experience & Skills

5+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of owning complex systems and delivering cross-functionally

Significant experience working with external partners (solutions architecture, integration engineering, or technical pre-sales), ideally in high-stakes or enterprise environments

Experience in DeFi: deep understanding of at least one major DeFi protocol, or a solid grasp of lending and borrowing mechanisms

Strong architecture skills: able to design and reason about end-to-end systems spanning smart contracts, APIs/SDKs, custody/wallet infrastructure, and compliance constraints

Hands-on technical profile: working knowledge of Solidity; comfortable reading, reviewing, and debugging smart contracts and integration flows; proficient with modern programming languages and AI coding tools

Experience designing or implementing integrations across multiple systems (APIs, smart contracts, custody providers, etc.), ideally in production environments

Excellent written communication: able to produce clear specs, integration guides, and partner-facing documentation

High ownership and autonomy: able to take ambiguous partner projects from early scoping to production without constant oversight

Nice-to-have Experience & Skills

Experience integrating with exchanges, wallets, custody providers, fintechs, or institutional asset managers (security reviews, audits, SLAs, compliance constraints)

Familiarity with permissioned DeFi patterns (allowlists, wrappers/controllers, role separation, timelocks) and partner requirements around custody and control

Strong intuition for liquidity and go-to-market mechanics (liquidity provisioning, market makers, incentives) that impact integration success

Experience defining scalable integration processes (handoffs, templates, playbooks) and improving documentation as a product

We design benefits around deep work and growth, so you can do the best work of your career. Expect fair, top-tier compensation, real flexibility, time together in Paris, great health coverage, and support to keep learning.
