Job Description
About Morpho
Morpho is a leading Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending protocol that raised $70 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 -5h 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 own Morpho’s infrastructure platform end-to-end so the engineering org can ship faster, operate safely at institutional reliability standards, and scale across chains and regions without reliability or indexing bottlenecks.
Responsibilities
- Architect and scale production infrastructure with pragmatic patterns and automation to achieve high availability and predictable performance under $10B+ deposits.
- Build self-service infrastructure with developer tooling and paved paths to reduce deployment time, unblock engineers, and increase deploy frequency.
- Design and evolve high-performance data and indexing systems with scalable architectures to process billions of on-chain events with sub-minute latency.
- Establish GitOps-based deployment practices with progressive rollouts and safe rollback mechanisms to reduce MTTR and increase operational confidence.
