Speed and efficiency are motivators for our success and our employees live by our company values: High Integrity, Future Forward, Multistakeholder, Mindful, and Driven by Excellence. We have built a flexible work environment where new ideas are encouraged and everyone is a stakeholder.

What you'll be responsible for:

Circle is looking for a Business Development Director to lead ecosystem development and business partnerships for Arc, specifically focused on "Earn" use cases. Example use cases include yield from borrow / lend vaults, money market fund yield, and more. This is a foundational role on a small, high-performing team building a new onchain ecosystem within a category-defining organization in finance. You'll be responsible for driving strategy, sourcing and executing critical deals, and shaping product direction in close collaboration with senior leadership.

A major component of the role is owning distribution partner development end-to-end with fintechs, neobanks, wallets, and centralized exchanges (CEXs): running structured discovery to identify the right launch partners and constraints, designing the segment-specific GTM motion and deal structures, sourcing and closing partnerships, and then driving integration and post-launch performance to ensure partnerships are working and scaling.

This role is ideal for a fintech-native business leader who speaks the language of consumer finance product teams and can bring instant credibility with partners - with strong product instincts, a bias toward action, and the ability to influence cross-functional teams while executing independently.

What you'll work on:

• Building and owning the distribution partner strategy and pipeline for Earn across neobanks, fintech apps, wallets, and CEXs.

• Defining target segments, partner tiers (launch vs. scale), product offering, and a repeatable partner motion (discovery business case term sheet integration launch scale).

• Establishing success metrics and forecasting tied to partner launches (e.g., funded accounts, USDC balances, Earn adoption, retention impact, and revenue).

• Leading partner discovery and translating insights into GTM + product requirements. This includes determining desired outcomes for partners, preferences on liquidity management, creating ownership boundaries, and synthesizing partner feedback.

• Designing deal structures that partners can actually ship: Creating scalable commercial and operational deal frameworks tailored to fintech distribution.

• Sourcing, negotiating, and closing strategic partnerships: Owning end-to-end deal execution: identifying priority partners, secure executive sponsorship, leading diligence, negotiating terms, and close agreements. Navigating high-stakes conversations with founders and C-level stakeholders at fintechs, wallets, and exchanges.

• Driving integration and launch execution (and ensure it works post-launch).

• Operating as an owner in a zero-to-one environment: Operating with high agency: prioritizing ruthlessly, testing hypotheses quickly, and iterating based on partner signal and data. Representing the project externally at key ecosystem forums, conferences, and partner events.

What you'll bring to Circle:

Core Requirements:

• 10+ years in business development, strategic partnerships, product partnerships, or ecosystem roles.

• Significant experience in fintech / neobank / consumer finance / wallet / exchange environments, with demonstrated credibility selling into (and partnering with) fintech product, commercial, and risk stakeholders.

• Proven track record sourcing, structuring, negotiating, and launching complex partnerships that include technical integration and ongoing performance management.

• Strong GTM design capability: can translate discovery into packaging, positioning, and a repeatable partner motion.

• Cross-functional leadership: comfortable driving execution with Product, Engineering, Legal/Compliance, Risk, Finance, and Marketing.

• Excellent communicator and negotiator-comfortable having direct, constructive conversations at the C-suite level.

• High-agency operator who executes independently and thrives in a fast-moving, ambiguous, zero-to-one environment

• Familiarity with crypto rails, stablecoins, and grasps new concepts quickly.

• Cares deeply about their work.

• Willingness to travel up to 30%.

• Familiarity with generative AI models (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) and prompt development.

Preferred Requirements:

• Experience launching or scaling a savings / yield / interest / wealth / lending product in a fintech context.

• Exposure to onchain yield options and partner considerations (e.g., lending markets, curated vaults, tokenized treasury-like products, private credit products), including how rate environments impact messaging and adoption.

• Prior startup experience, particularly in early-stage environments.

• Experience/familiarity with Slack, Apple MacOS and GSuite.

• This position is eligible for day-one PERM sponsorship for qualified candidates
