About The Role

: Canton Network is delivering what others promised but couldn’t: a blockchain for finance that actually works. As the only open layer 1 blockchain network with configurable privacy and controls sufficient for regulatory compliance, it is the venue where DeFi and TradFi are converging. In this role you’ll be responsible for ensuring that the product and technology suite as a whole provides a smooth customer experience and streamlined path to value for users and customers across the spectrum from DeFi to the world’s largest financial institutions.

You’ll work closely with BD, Sales, Developer Relations, and professional services to understand breaks in developer and customer experience in breadth. You’ll work directly with strategic customers that are reliant on product enhancements for their own projects. You’ll own the maintenance of Digital Asset’s reference and example applications to continuously validate the technology as a whole.

And you’ll work across professional services, Architecture, and the other Product, Design and and Engineering units to find pragmatic and actionable solutions, either in application patterns or product enhancements, that lead strategic customers to timely success, and steadily improve the builder experience with Canton Network as a whole. Success in this role requires the ability to connect the dots from the highly commercial to the highly technical to lead customers to success on Canton Network. As the successful candidate, you will bring the capital markets knowledge and understanding of the inner workings of financial institutions and their constraints to be able to work with them effectively towards real MVP financial products on Canton Network.

You will have the communication and sales skills to keep customers’ focus on the end goal and vision, to empathize with your counterparties, navigate sensitive conversations and manage risk at the interface between customer projects and Digital Asset’s technology. You’ll have the technical prowess and inclination to lead a team that’s at the leading edge of Canton application development and think through solution approaches with Canton’s core architects and engineers. And you’ll have the experience in managing project execution across units and functions to deliver holistic solutions to the market in a timely manner.

Responsibilities

: You work directly with strategic customers, either in tandem with BD, Sales and professional services, or on your own, to holistically understand their projects and use cases, their product dependencies, and work cross-functionally to come up with solutions and project plans that lead these customers to value on Canton Network in a timely manner.
