Gauntlet median: 70 days open

The posting

Gauntlet-curated vaults power earn products for some of the largest fintechs, exchanges, and wallets in crypto. This role owns growing that book. You will originate and close high-value Earn partnerships that route deposits into Gauntlet's vault products (Aera and Gauntlet-curated Morpho and Kamino vaults), working with Tier-1 and Tier-2 fintechs, exchanges, wallets, and DeFi protocols. You'll ramp on a mix of existing pipeline and self-sourced opportunities, with a mandate to originate greenfield partnerships where Gauntlet can be first to market. This is a senior individual contributor role with a path to team lead as the Growth team scales.

About Gauntlet

Gauntlet builds the financial systems of the future. While much of on-chain finance is focused on point solutions, we operate across the entire stack to offer best-in-class vault products. Today, we serve over $1.5B in client TVL across some of the largest fintechs/neobanks, protocols, exchanges, and capital allocators in crypto, and, increasingly, traditional asset management. Our team brings together traditional finance and crypto-native expertise to deliver durable, sophisticated products for institutional clients moving on-chain.

What you'll do;

  • Own the full deal cycle for high-value Earn opportunities: discovery, qualification, structuring, negotiation, close, and post-close activation.
  • Run rigorous discovery and qualification before anything gets proposed. Structure and negotiate terms that command favorable economics, and walk away from deals that don't.
  • Originate greenfield partnerships in segments and markets where Gauntlet can be the first mover.
  • Own outcomes past the signature. Drive activation so signed partners become live programs.
  • Work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Finance to position and validate Gauntlet within target verticals.
  • Keep the pipeline honest: stage hygiene, forecasting, and accurate CRM.
  • Represent Gauntlet at industry conferences and events, traveling as needed.

What success looks like;

What you bring;

  • 5+ years of work experience, including 3+ years in partnerships, BD, or sales at a fintech company or financial institution, with demonstrated end-to-end ownership of complex, multi-stakeholder deals.
  • A track record of structuring and negotiating partnership economics, not just sourcing introductions.
  • Comfort self-sourcing via outbound and converting first-mover opportunities.
  • Working knowledge of crypto/DeFi, with the ability to explain onchain yield to non-crypto-native audiences.
  • Ability to work autonomously and nimbly.
  • Willingness to travel to conferences and industry events as needed.
  • A strong network of fintechs, exchanges, wallets, or institutions that are likely to integrate onchain yield.
  • An active DeFi user who can describe what they use and why.
  • Languages relevant to emerging fintech markets (Spanish, Portuguese, or similar).

Benefits & Perks;

  • Remote first - work from anywhere in the US & CAN!
  • Regular in-person company retreats and cross-country "office visit" perk
  • 100% paid medical, dental, and vision premiums for employees
  • $1,000 WFH stipend
  • Monthly reimbursement for home internet, phone, and cellular data
  • Unlimited vacation
  • 100% paid parental leave of 12 weeks
  • Fertility benefits
  • Opportunity for incentive compensation

The national pay range for this role is [$130,000 - $150,000] base plus additional On Target Earnings potential by level and equity in the company. Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for a company of our size and industry, and are one part of many compensation, benefits, and other reward opportunities we provide. Individual pay rate decisions are based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skill set, and balancing internal equity relative to peers at the company.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
