Role

Who you are

  • 3 years of experience in interacting with various innovative new decentralized blockchain applications, including Uniswap, Blur, Opensea, Orca, Aave, and Compound
  • 2 years of experience working with various Layer 1 and Layer 2 protocols including Arbitrum, Optimism and Polygon
  • 1 year of experience with non-custodial wallets, including Ledger, Metamask, and Trezor
  • 1 year of experience working with blockchain explorers, including Etherscan, Solscan, Avascan, and Mempool

What the job involves

  • Fireblocks, Inc. seeks a Sales Director to maintain up-to-date information regarding the blockchain ecosystem (including tokenization, NFTs, Gaming, Layer 1’s, and DeFi) to source new business and interact with various founders and capital allocators
  • Provide prospective clients with detailed demonstrations of company software products along with all associated components, including API connectivity, staking, and private key management
  • Liaise with technical and business teams to ensure clients’ needs are supported
  • Review financial, pricing, and legal documentation related to the onboarding of new clients

Our take

The derivatives market has always been attractive for larger investors, but one of the biggest hurdles they needed to overcome has to do with capital efficiency, custody and security. Fireblocks allows for the trading of derivatives on any asset, using any form of collateral while receiving cross-margin benefits across counterparties. Essentially, it enables institutional traders to move digital assets without the operational or security headache.

By trying to make digital asset trading more secure, Fireblocks is banking on assets like cryptocurrencies becoming a new part of the mainstream trade of financial institutions. Cryptocurrencies are known for being notoriously unstable in their value but when traded properly, can be hugely profitable. Fireblocks believes that their cybersecurity services will make the industry seem safer and thereby make it more attractive to new participants.

In fact, Fireblocks are already on to something here. Now that cybersecurity standards have been boosted, a whole new crop of institutional entities has already set up shop in the crypto world. The more that follow suit, the more stable the market becomes - and the more potential clients Fireblocks can access. If Fireblocks can make digital assets both accessible and secure for mainstream traders, as they are doing through partnerships with the likes of CoinTrade, they have a huge potential market waiting to be tapped into.
