About Monad Foundation

The Monad Foundation is a team of dedicated ecosystem and community builders who are on a mission to massively grow the impact of decentralized tech. We believe that the Monad blockchain--the performant and parallel EVM Layer 1--will help decentralized apps eat the world.

The Role

The Monad Foundation is looking for a Technical Program Manager to own and orchestrate the delivery of complex and cross-functional initiatives. This role drives organizational clarity, ensures alignment across priorities, and coordinates program movement from inception to launch. The ideal candidate combines strong technical depth with exceptional organizational and communication skills, enabling fast, coordinated delivery in a rapidly evolving blockchain environment.

What You Will Do

• Collaborate with leadership to identify key priorities, and shepherd and spearhead the delivery of special projects and initiatives.
• Establish and track metrics that offer insight into progress, completion, and measures of success.
• Develop a deep understanding of the Monad Foundation organizational structure to manage project timelines, resources, and team dependencies to ensure on-time delivery of critical launches.
• Work cross-functionally and drive internal alignment across the organization, developing understanding and alignment across business (ecosystem, business development, founder community), operational (events, design, recruiting), and technical (engineering, quant, security) teams to realize critical roadmap deliverables.
• Facilitate requisite communication and coordination.
• Manage meetings and discussions.
• Escalate blockers and drive decision-making and resolutions.

Who You Are

• 7+ years of experience in technical program management, project management, or a similar cross-collaborative role at a technology start-up.

• Possess technical competency, strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to make data-driven decisions.
• Experience in leadership and/or management with technical teams and diverse stakeholders.

Why Work with Us

Monad’s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto.
• The right team. You’ll be part of an exceptional and highly-motivated team
• Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low ego, and high-quality output. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture.
