Lead ecosystem-level GTM, shape protocol narrative, and drive on-chain growth (TVL, active addresses, developer adoption). Scale developer programs (grants, hackathons), transition marketing to decentralized community governance, and measure ROI using on-chain and wallet-behavior analytics while owning cross-functional alignment with product, community, and BD.
The Role
This is a senior leadership role for a seasoned Web3 marketer ready to move beyond brand-building and own the full go-to-market function at the ecosystem level. The CMO will shape protocol narrative, drive on-chain growth, and transition the marketing org into a decentralized, community-led engine — with direct accountability for TVL, active addresses, and developer adoption.
Responsibilities
- Design and execute GTM strategies that align developer, validator, and end-user incentives to drive TVL and on-chain activity
- Own protocol positioning — establishing the project as the de facto standard in its niche by translating complex technical primitives into high-impact narratives for both institutional and retail audiences
- Evolve the marketing function from audience-building to ecosystem governance, enabling contributors and community members to act as decentralized brand evangelists
- Define and track marketing ROI through on-chain analytics and wallet-behavior data — moving beyond vanity metrics to measure active addresses, retention, and protocol stickiness
Requirements
- 7+ years in high-growth tech, with a minimum of 3 years leading marketing for a Layer 1, Layer 2, DeFi protocol, or major blockchain ecosystem
- Demonstrated success scaling a developer ecosystem, including ownership of grant programs, hackathons, and incentive design
- Strong technical fluency across EVM/non-EVM dynamics, cross-chain interoperability, and tokenomics — comfortable holding strategic conversations with CTOs and Lead Architects
- Proven ability to operate at the C-suite level with cross-functional ownership across product, community, and BD
Nice to Have
- Background in RWA, modular rollup infrastructure, or ZK-based systems
- Existing relationships within the institutional DeFi or Web3 VC community

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene
Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
