Morpho is experiencing exponential adoption, with over billion in deposits on the network and used by institutional clients including Bitwise, Galaxy, and Anchorage Digital and the largest crypto exchanges, such as Coinbase, Binance, and Kraken. Now, Morpho is scaling its team of contributors to establish itself as the open credit network, not just of DeFi, but of the world. ## Why Morpho Exists Everyone has the potential to build something great for the world. But fulfilling that ambition almost always requires more: people willing to trust you with their capital. Yet access to capital still depends on where you live, who you know, and which institutions are willing to trust you. 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. Borrowers overpay. Lenders earn less than they should. Many are shut out entirely, not because they are unworthy of credit, but because today's infrastructure was never built to connect them. Morpho exists to solve this. Full article [here](https://morpho.org/blog/why-morpho-exists/). Location Paris or remote (from -5h GMT up to +2h GMT to ensure sufficient overlap with the rest of the team). ## Role Morpho's Midnight launch brought fixed-rate, fixed-term lending onchain, and with it a set of credit markets that were never viable before. This role decides which of those markets Morpho pursues, what each one demands, and how to get there. It exists because the opportunity is far larger than the team can chase at once, so the sequencing has to be right. ## Responsibilities - Own Morpho's strategy for expanding into new credit markets, building the framework that sizes and sequences each opportunity so the team goes after the ones that will gain real traction. - Size net new markets including custodied Bitcoin, tokenized equities, undercollateralized credit and credit card receivables, using market data and competitive dynamics to decide where Morpho moves first. - Build and run the process that surfaces what institutions actually need across a range of use cases and industries, so Morpho knows which problems to solve to unlock each loan type. - Work with protocol, engineering, solutions, partnerships, marketing and legal to decide where Morpho builds and where it partners, then ship multiple zero-to-one loan categories. - Design and run proof of concepts with new counterparty types, then use the results to scale a proven model across the rest of that market. - Map the regulatory, compliance and registration requirements attached to each new market and factor them into which opportunities Morpho takes on, and in what order. What Success Looks Like First 30 days Ramped on the lending stack and what Midnight makes possible. Has met markets, solutions, partnerships and protocol, and mapped the credit opportunities already in play. First 3 months You drove delivery of a proof of concept for a new loan market, and helped the team size the broader landscape of where to move next. First 6 months You've shipped experiments across several categories and developed internal consensus on our strategy to expand morpho into new markets. Must Have Experience & Skills: - Proven track record taking products from zero to one in greenfield markets. - Experience in crypto, traditional finance, or fintech, with a working grasp of how credit markets function. - Experience shipping products with regulatory or compliance requirements. - Excellent written and verbal communication across technical and non-technical audiences. - Ability to create clarity and drive decisions in highly ambiguous environments - Fast synthesis, with the ability to ramp on unfamiliar industries and markets quickly. - Team-first mindset, low ego. ## Perks & Benefits We design benefits around deep work and growth, so you can do the best work of your career. Expect fair, top-tier compensation, real flexibility, time together in Paris, great health coverage, and support to keep learning. ## Equal Opportunity We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and hire based on talent, potential, and values alignment. ## About Morpho ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Morpho is an open, decentralized credit network that provides enterprise-grade infrastructure for businesses to build, embed, and scale onchain lending and borrowing products. - **Entity Type**: Private (Venture-backed; last round: Series A+ led by Ribbit Capital) - **Headquarters**: Paris, France - **Founded**: 2021 - **Founders**: Paul Frambot (Co-founder & CEO), Merlin Egalite (Co-founder) ## Core Business - **Primary Industry**: Decentralized Finance (DeFi) / Onchain Lending Infrastructure - **Target Customers**: B2B — exchanges (e.g., Coinbase, Crypto.com), fintechs, banks, regulated institutions, and risk curators building lending/borrowing products. - **Mission Statement**: "Power human ambition with open access to capital." ## Products & Services - **Morpho Blue** *(Protocol/Infrastructure)*: A permissionless, immutable lending protocol with isolated markets (1 loan asset + 1 collateral asset per market). Serves as the foundation of the lending ecosystem. - **Morpho Vaults** *(Platform)*: Curated lending vaults that allow independent risk experts to build businesses around differentiated risk profiles, auto-allocating deposits across Morpho Markets. - **Morpho Optimizer** *(Optimization Layer)*: An optimization layer (now superseded by Morpho Blue) that initially improved interest rates for users on top of Aave and Compound. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not disclosed (privately held). - **Key Metric — Total Deposits**: Over $13B in deposits (as of early 2026), up from $5B during 2025.
