About Us

Babylon is building native use cases for Bitcoin.  

Bitcoin is an incredible store of value, but it’s historically been difficult to unlock its broader economic productivity.  Our products address this - our flagship protocol, trustless Bitcoin staking, has attracted almost $6B native BTC TVL, and our new invention trustless Bitcoin vault allows native BTC to participate in DeFi protocols on any chain.

We're a fast-growing team of world-class researchers, engineers, and GTM operators.  Our culture is open, collaborative, and fast-moving, and we're serious about empowering individuals to shape the future of the project and the broader ecosystem.

About the Job

The trustless Bitcoin vault invention opens a huge range of DeFi opportunities for native Bitcoin: lending, stablecoin issuance, and derivative-based DEXes. We’re looking for a Head of DeFi Product: someone who will lead product strategy and execution to grow this technology across crypto.

This is a highly cross-functional role that will work closely with Babylon’s engineering, research, business development, and community teams as well as our external ecosystem partners. This person will play a pivotal role in setting our long-term roadmap and ensuring our products are deeply valuable to developers, validators, users, and other blockchain ecosystems.

Responsibilities

• Define the vault product design and roadmap
• Collaborate closely with engineering, research, and BD teams to ship high-impact  features across the Babylon protocol and tech stack
• Own the product lifecycle from ideation through development, launch, feedback, and  iteration
• Engage with external stakeholders and partners to validate product decisions and surface  new opportunities
• Foster a deep understanding of the user needs across ecosystems—Bitcoin holders,  blockchain and dApp developers, validators, and more

About You

• Deep knowledge of DeFi products
• Strategic thinker with deep empathy for  users and a bias toward execution
• Equally comfortable thinking big and zooming into the  technical weeds.
• Self-driven, creative, collaborative, and thrive in ambiguity and fast paced environments.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in DeFi product design and management
• Hands-on experience in the product design in lending, stablecoin, and derivatives DEX is  a strong plus
• Proven track record of driving DeFi product strategy and execution from zero to one in  high-velocity environments
• Strong technical fluency—able to engage deeply with engineering and research teams
• Excellent organizational and communication skills
