• Treasury management: Support the development of an asset allocation model for the Lido DAO Treasury and support treasury management efforts of the Lido Labs and Lido Ecosystem Foundations.

• Liquidity modeling: Model stETH liquidity across on-chain AMMs, RFQ/MM venues, and centralized exchanges; quantify slippage, depth, and execution quality; stress test scenarios.

• Market structure & LP management: Support negotiation of centralized-exchange liquidity provision agreements; monitor and report KPIs.

• On-chain liquidity operations: Implement/support liquidity management across L2s/L1 and other EVM chains (bridging, rebalancing, routing).

• Mechanism & tooling design: Prototype and evaluate improved mechanisms for liquidity provision (e.g., a liquidity buffer for the Lido Core protocol with dynamic fee structure) and collaborate with engineering to ship production-grade tools.

• Risk, monitoring & reporting: Build automated risk metrics, alerting, and weekly/monthly reports for stakeholders; communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
