Head of Digital Asset Operating Platform – Blockchain-Enabled Operations

Job Description:

The Role We are seeking a visionary executive leader to architect, build, and scale the operating platform that will power the future of digital asset investments and on-chain finance — spanning tokenized funds and financial assets, digital asset portfolios, on-chain investments and financial activities, and blockchain-native financial products.

This role will lead the design and implementation and ongoing operation of the end-to-end infrastructure for the digital assets fund and portfolio investment services ecosystem, including accounting and valuation, portfolio and fund administration, and transfer agency, integrating blockchain infrastructure with institutional-grade controls, data architecture, and governance across both on-chain and off-chain environments.

Ensure audit readiness and regulatory compliance aligned with applicable regulatory agencies and authorities, including SEC, CFTC and equivalent global standards.

Establish data-governance, reporting, and control frameworks to ensure transparency, accuracy, and traceability across funds and portfolios.

Champion tokenization frameworks for different asset classes and product structures, including money-market funds, private credit, private equity, ETFs, and structured finance, and interoperability across blockchains.

Cross-Functional Leadership & Stakeholder Management Operate effectively within a large, matrixed organization, aligning functions across technology, operations, investment management, finance, risk, and compliance.
