About the company

Hi, we're Ondo Finance. Our mission is to provide institutional-grade, blockchain-enabled investment products and services. We have both a technology arm that develops decentralized finance technology, and an asset management arm that creates and manages tokenized funds. We were the first company to tokenize exposure to US Treasuries (and have since expanded into several other assets). We are also focused on incubating protocols that can support both tokenized real-world assets and traditional crypto.

Founded by folks from Goldman Sachs’s Digital Assets Team, we’re backed by some of the best investors in the world including Founders Fund, Coinbase Ventures, Pantera Capital, Tiger Global, and more. We are currently the leaders in the space in terms of AUM and are well capitalized to continue to grow the firm. We're fully remote with team members across the US.

About the role

Ondo Finance is seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer to join our team at the intersection of product, engineering, and business development. This is a high-impact, customer-facing role responsible for enabling successful integrations of Ondo’s products and protocols with external developers, clients, and partners.

You’ll act as a technical advisor, problem solver, and solutions architect—embedding with key partners, building proof-of-concepts and internal tooling, and helping external teams go from zero to one with our systems. This hybrid role combines elements of developer relations, solutions engineering, and product management.

You’ll partner closely with BD, Product, Engineering, and our executive team to shape both the technical integration experience and the long-term roadmap.

Key responsibilities

Serve as the front-line technical partner for customers, helping them integrate and scale with Ondo’s onchain products and infrastructure.
Write light code (e.g. Bash, Python, JavaScript) and smart contract interface snippets to support onboarding, proof-of-concepts, and integrations.
Create technical content, including documentation, tutorials, example repositories, and internal tools to improve onboarding and DevX.
Collaborate with Product and Engineering to improve SDKs, APIs, and other integration surfaces based on real-world usage and customer feedback.
Work with Business Development to scope technical solutions for potential customers and unblock existing relationships.
Act as the internal voice of the customer to help prioritize features and shape product roadmap.
Establish scalable processes, playbooks, and metrics for supporting a growing partner ecosystem.

Who you are

A cross-functional builder with experience in engineering, technical product roles, or developer success—especially in startup environments.
Capable of writing light code, debugging integrations, and communicating technical concepts clearly to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders.
Strong communicator with an ability to explain complex systems and create clear documentation and onboarding materials.
Deeply curious and product-minded—you think about the full user journey and how to remove friction at every step.
Comfortable operating autonomously and partnering directly with customers in high-stakes technical engagements.
Familiarity with DeFi, crypto protocols, or financial APIs is a strong plus—but not strictly required.

What we offer

Competitive compensation including salary, future token rights, and/or equity—designed to reward outstanding talent and contributions.
Full benefits (medical, vision, and dental) and a flexible vacation policy (PTO), recognizing work-life integration.
A small, remote-first team distributed globally—this is a chance to shape our culture and contribute at a pivotal moment in the company’s trajectory.
Work alongside A+ colleagues, including alumni from Goldman Sachs, Blackrock, Two Sigma, Bridgewater, SpaceX, AWS, Meta, Google, McKinsey, Circle, and Uniswap.
Backed by best-in-class investors, including Pantera Capital, Founders Fund, and Coinbase Ventures.
