Job description

About Daylight

Daylight is the decentralized energy company. We're building a protocol that converts distributed solar and storage systems into yield-bearing infrastructure. These assets are deployed behind the meter in American homes and businesses, generating electricity revenues that flow onchain as a single, liquid yield token. Our ambition is to build the economic engine for energy abundance, where capital fuels power, and power fuels everything.

Our team brings together energy and crypto veterans who believe in a future where communities power themselves. Backed by a16z, Framework, and other industry-leading investors, we're building the infrastructure to make that vision a reality. Learn more at www.godaylight.com

The Role

We're hiring a DeFi Strategist to lead DayFi's business development and play a foundational role in the evolution of our energy-based yield products. You will be responsible for growing our strategic integrations across DeFi, deepening relationships with protocols and stablecoin issuers, and shaping product design and go-to-market strategy to ensure DayFi becomes a core building block in the emerging RWA DeFi stack.

You'll work closely with the protocol and capital formation teams, helping to align liquidity incentives, refine composability features, and grow network effects across both sides of the market.

This role is in-person in our New York City office.

Responsibilities
  • Own and scale DayFi's DeFi-native business development function, driving integrations with Layer 1s and Layer 2s, stablecoins, lending markets, interest rate derivatives, structured products, and bridges
  • Shape and refine the design of DayFi's yield products to improve liquidity, increase retention, and scale TVL
  • Provide strategic input into the roadmap of core DeFi integrations to increase composability, utility, and adoption
  • Work closely with partners to structure joint incentive programs, coordinate co-marketing, and accelerate TVL growth
  • Work with the engineering and product teams at Daylight to provide seamless DeFi UX for mints, redemptions, and other engagements
  • Work with the marketing team at Daylight to communicate the value proposition of our novel yield products to DeFi market participants
What we're looking for| Must Haves
  • Deep familiarity with the DeFi ecosystem, including RWAs, stablecoins, money markets (e.g., Aave, Morpho), and structured yield platforms (e.g., Pendle), and strong opinions on why certain products have worked and others have not
  • Demonstrated understanding of advanced DeFi strategies such as looping and fixed-rate interest products
  • A strong rolodex of protocol teams and DeFi power users, specifically in the stablecoin, RWA, lending, infrastructure, and market making spaces
  • Prior experience in business development or product strategy at a RWA protocol, lending protocol, stablecoin issuer, Layer 1, or Layer 2
  • Comfortable thinking in smart contract logic and understanding the implications of EVM-level design decisions on go-to-market and integrations
  • Strong strategic thinking and communication skills-you can move between technical discussions and ecosystem storytelling with ease
| Nice to Haves
  • Prior exposure to RWA tokenization or experience structuring compliant DeFi products
  • Experience working with or across power markets
What we offer
  • Competitive salary and equity package
  • Opportunity to shape a category-defining product from the ground up
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Wellhub membership
  • Monthly wellness stipend

Daylight values diversity and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates. We're building technology that serves everyone, and we believe diverse perspectives make our team and our product stronger.
