Treasury Lead

About the Starknet Foundation

The Starknet Foundation is the steward of Starknet, a permissionless validity rollup designed to scale the world's most important blockchains without compromise. Having pioneered ZK-STARK technology to scale Ethereum, we are now entering a new era as the first network to settle simultaneously on both Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Joining the Starknet Foundation now places you at the epicenter of this pivotal phase and offers a rare, ground-floor opportunity to shape how BTCFi evolves. This is a unique chance to build the first unified execution layer that turns the world's most secure assets into productive capital, and it requires exceptional talent. We're looking for people who think in systems, operate well in ambiguity, and are motivated by long-term impact over short-term wins. If you care about building durable foundations (technical, organizational, or ecosystem-level) and want your work to meaningfully shape how decentralized systems scale, this is the place to do it.

About the Role

We're looking for a Treasury Lead with deep experience across traditional finance and Web3 to own our treasury operations end-to-end. You'll be responsible for managing the Foundation's token treasury and fiat assets, ensuring long-term financial sustainability, and building the infrastructure and processes that keep us operating at scale. This is a high-ownership role at the intersection of institutional finance and decentralized systems and reports directly into our VP of Finance & Operations.

• Manage the Foundation’s custody architecture and oversee liquidity movements across operational, strategic, and ecosystem obligations

• Build scalable treasury infrastructure, reporting systems, and operational processes that improve efficiency, visibility, and control

• Partner closely with Data and Finance teams to develop treasury analytics, forecasting models, and ecosystem-level insights

• Work cross-functionally with Growth, Product, GTM, and Operations teams to understand capital requirements and optimize treasury deployment

• Prepare treasury reporting, risk analysis, and strategic recommendations for executive leadership and the Board

• Support strategic initiatives relating to ecosystem liquidity, market structure, and on-chain financial infrastructure
