About the role
- Now, Morpho is scaling its team to establish itself as the open credit network, not just of DeFi, but of the world.
- Even when capital is available, it sits fragmented across disconnected networks and hidden behind intermediaries.
- The result is a system that fails most of the people it should serve.
Responsibilities
- Shape partner solutions early: work with Business Development to understand partner needs, translate requirements into clear technical approaches, identify constraints, de-risk integrations, and define success criteria.
- Design end-to-end architectures with partners: lead the design of integrations with key partners across APIs, smart contracts, oracles, and custody solutions, and architect around Morpho's core stack including wallets/custody, KYC and access controls, compliance, liquidation tooling, monitoring, and operations.
- Run architecture workshops to align on user journeys, liquidity strategies, and go-to-market with partners.
- Drive delivery and execution: produce clear, actionable deliverables (architecture diagrams, specs, integration playbooks), coordinate across internal teams (protocol, product, infra, legal, risk, growth) to unblock launches, and work closely with partner engineering teams to bring solutions to production.
- Fully autonomous on technical questions, able to support growth without needing to involve others from the integration team.
- Smoothly onboards integrators and reassures partners.
- A key partner and reference point for the Integration, Growth teams and Morpho partners.
- Significant experience working with external partners (solutions architecture, integration engineering, or technical pre-sales), ideally in high-stakes or enterprise environments.
- Strong architecture skills: able to design and reason about end-to-end systems spanning smart contracts, APIs/SDKs, custody/wallet infrastructure, and compliance constraints.
- Excellent written communication: able to produce clear specs, integration guides, and partner-facing documentation.
Requirements
- anyone can question work and decisions must be justified.
Nice to have
- Experience designing or implementing integrations across multiple systems (APIs, smart contracts, custody providers, etc.), ideally in production environments.
- Experience integrating with exchanges, wallets, custody providers, fintechs, or institutional asset managers (security reviews, audits, SLAs, compliance constraints).
- Strong intuition for liquidity and go-to-market mechanics (liquidity provisioning, market makers, incentives) that impact integration success.
Skills
- 7+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of owning complex systems and delivering cross-functionally.
- Experience defining scalable integration processes (handoffs, templates, playbooks) and improving documentation as a product.
- Humble.
- READY TO SHAPE THE FUTURE OF FINANCE?
