Job Description
About Morpho
Morpho is a leading Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending protocol that recently secured $50 million from Ribbit Capital, a16z crypto, Coinbase Ventures, Variant, Brevan Howard, Pantera, Blocktower, and 50 others to build an open lending network giving anyone, anywhere, access to the best possible terms. Morpho is experiencing explosive growth, with over $10 billion in deposits on the network, solidifying itself as the new standard for DeFi lending. Now, Morpho is scaling its team of contributors to establish itself as a cornerstone, not just of DeFi, but of a new internet-native financial system.
Our Mission
Morpho’s mission is to power human ambition with open access to capital. Human ambition has no borders, but the capital to fuel it does. Today’s financial system is closed and fragmented. No one sees all opportunities, most overpay, and some are excluded entirely. We believe capital should flow efficiently to where it’s needed most — giving anyone, anywhere, access to the best possible terms.
Location
Paris or remote (from GMT up to +2h GMT to ensure sufficient overlap with the rest of the team).
How we work
We move fast on hard problems in a nascent market with no set playbook : navigating uncertainty is part of the job. You’ll be challenged: anyone can question work and decisions must be justified. We keep a high bar and match it with high support: we help each other unblock and share context openly, with low ego. More about our values: morpho.org/jobs.
Role
The mission of this role is to scale Morpho's curator ecosystem by building trusted relationships with independent risk curators, ensuring they have the operational support and market intelligence needed to create safe, competitive vaults as the protocol grows.
Responsibilities
• Maintain close communication with independent risk curators to keep them informed about market activity, emerging opportunities, and ecosystem updates, building trust and preventing friction.
• Support curators in operational excellence by providing vault setup guidance, configuration best practices, and smooth onboarding into the Morpho ecosystem to improve their effectiveness.
• Monitor active markets for health signals including liquidity depth, utilization patterns, and rate behavior to surface relevant trends and potential issues proactively.
• Review vault configurations and market setups to identify optimization opportunities and flag areas where curators may want to revisit parameters for safety or competitiveness.
• Provide context on market safety considerations to help curators make informed, independent decisions about risk management and vault strategy.
• Track emerging lending strategies and trade structures across DeFi to identify new borrower demand patterns and liquidity shifts that affect Morpho's ecosystem.
• Act as a trusted operational partner by resolving misunderstandings quickly, facilitating clear information flow, and helping curators respond effectively during critical situations.
What Success Looks Like
In your first 30 days, you will build a strong understanding of the Morpho ecosystem, the role of independent risk curators, and the lifecycle of vault and market creation. You'll map out active curators and their current needs, establish communication channels with key stakeholders, and begin independently reviewing market health metrics.
By Month 4–6, you will have become a trusted operational partner to multiple curators, offering timely insights and ecosystem context. You'll own a regular market-monitoring workflow that surfaces trends and risks to both curators and internal teams. You'll have helped curators improve their configurations and processes based on best-practice recommendations, and you'll demonstrate the ability to identify and explain new lending strategies emerging across DeFi.
By Month 12, you will have built durable, productive relationships with the majority of active curators and helped raise their overall operational maturity through proactive guidance. Your presence will lead to demonstrably healthier markets through clearer information flow, better alignment, faster issue detection, and improved curator responsiveness. You'll play a meaningful role in scaling the curator ecosystem as vaults and markets continue to grow.
