Crypto Technical Project Manager

About the role

The Technical Project Manager (TPM) will lead execution across the Crypto Custody, Blockchain Integration, and Tokenization program while owning and operationalizing the AI-centric Development Life Cycle (AI-DLC) across the program.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end execution of the Crypto Custody, Blockchain, and Tokenization roadmap.
• Coordinate delivery across:
• Crypto Custody engineering
• Blockchain platform teams
• Crypto Security and Platform SRE
• Enterprise Risk, Security, Legal, Compliance, and Operations
• Manage dependencies across engineering and non-engineering stakeholders with clarity and urgency.
• Translate strategic objectives into executable, sequenced delivery plans.
• Serve as the steward and enabler of AI-DLC for the Crypto program.
• Ensure teams operate with:
• AI-assisted planning and decomposition
• AI-augmented design, documentation, and reviews
• Agent-assisted dependency tracking and risk surfacing
• Embed expectations that GenAI is the default delivery accelerator, not an exception.
• Partner with engineering leadership to:
• Reduce manual overhead
• Shorten feedback loops
• Improve execution predictability
• Actively identify where AI can further simplify, accelerate, or de-risk delivery workflows.
• Maintain sufficient technical depth to understand:
• Crypto custody architectures and workflows
• Blockchain integration and tokenization dependencies
• Security, DR, and incident-readiness requirements
• Proactively surface and manage:
• Technical and delivery risks
• Security and regulatory readiness gaps
• Dependency and sequencing issues
• Drive clarity on:

• Outcomes and progress
• Risks and mitigations
• Decisions required

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in technical program or project management in complex platform environments.
• Proven experience leading execution across high-risk, regulated, or security-sensitive systems.
• Strong ability to operate in ambiguity while maintaining delivery discipline.
• Demonstrated comfort working with senior engineers, architects, and executives.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Strongly Preferred

• Experience with AI-assisted or AI-led delivery models.
• Prior exposure to crypto custody, blockchain, or financial services platforms.
• Experience coordinating with security, risk, or regulatory stakeholders.
• Strong systems thinking—connecting technology, process, risk, and outcomes.
• Comfort influencing without authority.

What Success Looks Like

• Crypto platforms deliver with speed and confidence, without last-minute surprises.
• AI-DLC is consistently applied, not selectively adopted.
• Engineering teams spend more time building and less time coordinating.
• Risks are surfaced early and managed deliberately.
• Leadership trusts both the delivery outcomes and the delivery system.

Benefits

• 401(k) with company match and Employee stock purchase plan
• Paid time for vacation, volunteering, and 28-day sabbatical after every 5 years of service for eligible positions
