• Participate in governance, long‑term strategy, and hiring key staff as the company scales.
• Contribute to fundraising, pitch materials, and partnerships from a technical perspective.
• Serve as a public‑facing voice for YieldLoop’s innovation and technology roadmap.

LOOP LAB Integration

• Experience with DeFi, fintech infrastructure, or smart‑contract auditing preferred.
• Ability to work in a lean, early‑stage startup environment with high autonomy and shared responsibility.
• Visionary yet practical — capable of building and scaling production‑ready systems.
• Entrepreneurial mindset and readiness to commit to a co‑founder role with equity ownership.

Compensation

• Initial compensation via founder equity , transitioning to salary post‑funding.
• Includes shared decision‑making authority and governance participation.
