Requirements and responsibilities
About MorphoMorpho is a leading Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending protocol that raised million from Ribbit Capital, a16z crypto, Coinbase Ventures, Variant, Brevan Howard, Pantera, Blocktower, and 50 others to build an open lending network giving anyone, anywhere, access to the best possible terms. Morpho is experiencing explosive growth, with over billion in deposits on the network, solidifying itself as the new standard for DeFi lending. Now, Morpho is scaling its team of contributors to establish itself as a cornerstone, not just of DeFi, but of a new internet-native financial system.Our MissionMorpho's mission is to power human ambition with open access to capital. Human ambition has no borders, but the capital to fuel it does. Today's financial system is closed and fragmented. No one sees all opportunities, most overpay, and some are excluded entirely. We believe capital should flow efficiently to where it's needed most - giving anyone, anywhere, access to the best possible terms.LocationHong Kong or Singapore. This role covers Morpho's APAC desk during Asian market hours and requires being close to the capital allocators you will serve across Greater China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Japan. Remote work is supported within APAC time zones (GMT+8 to GMT+9).How we workWe move fast on hard problems in a nascent market with no set playbook: navigating uncertainty is part of the job. You'll be challenged: anyone can question work and decisions must be justified. We keep a high bar and match it with high support: we help each other unblock and share context openly, with low ego. More about our values: morpho.org/jobs.RoleThe mission of this role is to eliminate Morpho's 24/7 coverage gap by planting the DeFi Desk in APAC: owning the region's largest crypto capital allocators end-to-end, structuring bespoke deals through Morpho Blue and Midnight, and running the desk independently during Asian market hours.ResponsibilitiesOwn end-to-end strategic relationships with APAC's largest capital allocators (HNW individuals, family offices, prop desks, DATs, and CEXes) through Attio with personalized, high-touch outreach calibrated to each relationship, to grow Morpho's active loan book in the region.Build the APAC lender and borrower book by identifying, qualifying, and onboarding net-new participants across Greater China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Japan through a dedicated pipeline strategy operated from Attio.Source, scope, and structure bespoke deals (fixed-rate loans, multi-collateral facilities, gated curator vaults, structured obligations) by coordinating directly with Curators to create and close custom opportunities for APAC allocators.Hold the desk during APAC market hours by monitoring book health through volatility events, coordinating with Curators to source borrows for incoming supply, and routing them to the right vaults without escalating to New York.Run bilingual education in the market (Mandarin-language webinars, explainers, and differentiation sheets) to build Morpho's brand among crypto institutional allocators in Mandarin-speaking markets.Be the voice of APAC inside Morpho by feeding structured product requirements, oracle and custody needs, and region-specific signals back to Product, Protocol, and Curator teams to help shape Midnight's APAC go-to-market.What Success Looks LikeFirst 30 daysOnboard with the APAC Lead and the NY desk.
