Role Summary

Lead execution across crypto custody, blockchain integration, and tokenization programs while owning and operationalizing an AI-centric development life cycle. The posting describes this as a role accountable not only for delivery outcomes, but also for how work gets executed in a highly regulated, high-risk domain.

Key Responsibilities

  • Coordinate delivery across crypto custody engineering, blockchain platform teams, crypto security, platform SRE, and enterprise stakeholders across risk, security, legal, compliance, and operations.
  • Translate strategic objectives into executable, sequenced delivery plans and manage dependencies across engineering and non-engineering stakeholders.
  • Serve as the steward of an AI-centric development life cycle by enabling AI-assisted planning and decomposition, AI-augmented design and documentation, and agent-assisted dependency tracking and risk surfacing.
  • Maintain technical fluency across crypto custody architectures, blockchain integration and tokenization dependencies, and security, disaster recovery, and incident-readiness requirements.
  • Drive risk, readiness, and governance management by surfacing technical and delivery risks early, aligning on go-live criteria, cutover and rollback plans, and operational readiness checkpoints.
  • Establish an operating cadence and produce executive-ready updates focused on outcomes, risks, mitigations, and decisions required.


Source-Supported Qualification Themes

  • 8+ years of experience in technical program or project management in complex platform environments.
  • Proven experience leading execution across high-risk, regulated, or security-sensitive systems.
  • Strong ability to operate in ambiguity while maintaining delivery discipline.
  • Demonstrated comfort working with senior engineers, architects, and executives.
