We are seeking an exceptionally driven and visionary Director of Crypto Operations to spearhead the comprehensive operational scaling, development and product evolution of our cryptocurrency ecosystem.

You will be the primary architect of our US crypto operational infrastructure, ensuring that our digital asset solutions are robust, compliant, and seamlessly integrated.

Responsibilities

• Manage all US operations, ensuring that every trade and movement of assets is accounted for with precision.
• Serve as the central link between the engineering, legal, and finance teams. You must be able to translate complex operational needs into technical requirements and vice versa.
• Lead projects globally to scale Webull’s crypto footprint, ensuring that US operations align with our international expansion efforts, including those in Canada, Brazil and beyond.
• Have comfortability with software development and able to communicate as such. You will be deeply involved with the technology teams to ensure the product architecture supports scalable operations.
• Establish robust risk management protocols and ensure all products adhere to the highest standards of regulatory compliance and security.
• Own the entire product journey from "napkin sketch" to post-trade settlement. This includes ideation, technical scoping, and overseeing the build in constant collaboration with the technology teams.
• Manage the "back-end" of the product launch, ensuring that settlements, reconciliations, and books and records are architected correctly from day one.
• Work in lockstep with the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) and Product Teams to help ship meaningful products quickly while maintaining institutional-grade operational integrity.
• Possess a deep understanding of blockchain fundamentals, smart contracts, and decentralized ecosystems (DeFi/DAOs). Must demonstrate a strategic grasp of cryptographic security and the architectural transition from centralized platforms to decentralized, transparent models.
