LATAM Ecosystem Lead

The Monad Foundation is a team of dedicated ecosystem and community builders who are on a mission to massively grow the impact of decentralized tech. We believe that the Monad blockchain--the performant and parallel EVM Layer 1--will help decentralized apps eat the world.

The Role

The Monad Foundation is on a mission to establish Monad as the leading blockchain in Latin America in mindshare and adoption among developers and retail users. We’re looking for a LATAM Ecosystem Lead to drive regional growth and empower the next generation of founders building on Monad.

You’ll be the champion for LATAM builders – identifying founder talent, creating initiatives for founder success and connecting the dots between regional use cases and ecosystem opportunities.

What You’ll Do

• Drive brand and mindshare growth for Monad across the region
• Own the strategy for making Monad the blockchain of choice for developers and early-stage startups
• Build deep connections within regional partners and communities
• Design and lead regional growth initiatives and programs that activate strong builders
• You will be the bridge between local builders and the global Monad ecosystem – surfacing talent, driving funding and growth in LATAM projects
• Drive expansion into key verticals – DeFi, consumer apps, payments, stablecoins
• Own goals and metrics for mindshare, adoption and on-chain startup revenue in the region
  
  

• 6+ years of experience in crypto, with a proven track record of scaling ecosystems in competitive markets
• Native in Spanish (or Portuguese) with strong English proficiency, you can navigate business conversations and build trust across cultures
• Strong connections with founder communities and important players in the region
• You are opinionated about what it takes to be a great founder, and are passionate about early-stage startups
• You understand what drives meaningful blockchain adoption, and bring the network and resourcefulness to deliver results
• You operate with a founder mentality – you own outcomes, move and execute fast
  
  

• Technical background and ability to engage credible with developers on technical topics
• Experience running ecosystem programs (accelerators, hackathons)
  
  

• Based in Mexico or Argentina, with the flexibility to travel frequently across the region.
  
  

• Challenging problems. You’ll work on extremely challenging problems with massive impact.
• Huge opportunity. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are slow and bandwidth-constrained. Monad’s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto.
• The right team. You’ll be part of an exceptional and highly-motivated team
• Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low ego, and high-quality output. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture.
