(Nasdaq: GLXY) is a global leader in digital assets and data center infrastructure, growing the economy that runs on code. Galaxy delivers the onchain infrastructure that connects institutions to digital assets, including trading, advisory, asset management, staking, self-custody, and tokenization. Galaxy also develops and operates data center infrastructure to power AI and HPC workloads. Anchored by its Helios campus in Texas, Galaxy is building a multi-gigawatt pipeline of more than 5.7 GW of potential capacity, positioning it among the largest and fastest-growing data center developers in North America.\nThe Company is headquartered in New York City, with offices across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.\nAdditional information about Galaxy's businesses and products is available on www.galaxy.com.\nWhat We Value:\nWe are a diverse team of free thinkers, and fast movers united to help investors and creators energize the global economy. We are looking for individuals who thrive in a culture of builders and overachievers and embrace high performance, transparent feedback, and a mission-first approach. Our culture shapes our way of working and gets us where we want to be.\nSeek Excellence.\nBe Selective To Be Effective.\nBe Highly Aligned, Loosely Coupled.\nDisagree Transparently.\nEncourage Independent Decision-Making.\nBuild Dream Teams.\nWho You Are:\nThe Member of Technical Staff, Forward Deployed Lead is the de facto CEO of their pod within Galaxy Edge - a small, senior team focused on one client engagement or one innovation bet. In this role, you will own product direction, technical standards, client relationships, and account growth, working alongside a dedicated Delivery Lead who handles timelines and execution. You will rotate between our two verticals - Forward Deployed Product & Engineering and R&D & Innovation - carrying hard-won market and technical context across the boundary. You will partner closely with Tier-1 financial institution stakeholders from engineers to C-suite executives, translating their needs in custody, settlement, tokenization, and trading into buildable roadmaps. This is a deliberately hybrid role requiring a hands-on startup CTO mindset combined with the commercial instinct to grow accounts and turn delivered trust into the next engagement.\nWhat You’ll Do:\nOwn product and technical direction: translate institutional needs - custody, settlement, tokenization, trading, and regulatory context - into a buildable roadmap; set the technical bar, make hard design calls, and stay in the code when it matters\nDrive commercial and account growth: run your account like a business, identify expansion opportunities, advise senior client stakeholders (CTO, COO, Head of Digital Assets), and convert delivered trust into the next engagement\nLead client and executive relationships: run discovery from engineers to the C-suite, define success in their terms (adoption, risk, cost, time-to-value), and navigate complex regulated organizations to alignment\nRotate into R&D and Innovation: lead 0-to-1 product creation on frontier blockchain and AI, and codify learnings into reusable components and playbooks that feed back into client delivery\nServe as the voice of the customer back into Galaxy’s product organization, translating delivered insights into what the firm builds next\nEmbrace and champion the thoughtful adoption of AI to improve team performance and business outcomes.\nLeverage AI tools (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms, data copilots) to improve productivity, decision-making, and output quality in your day-to-day work.\nWhat We’re Looking For:\nProven track record of owning outcomes end to end in ambiguous, high-stakes settings\nReal technical depth - you’ve shipped production software and can lead engineers credibly\nCommercial instinct - you’ve turned delivered work into expanded scope or revenue\nExecutive presence - fluent from a whiteboard to a C-suite briefing\nFounder-grade agency and low ego - you find a path when none is obvious and care about the outcome, not the credit\nTypically 6+ years across forward-deployed/solutions engineering, technical PM, and client-facing delivery; shape of ownership matters more than years\nWillingness to travel approximately 25-40% of the time\nBonus Points: \nExperience in digital assets or blockchain infrastructure\nPrior delivery experience into Tier-1 financial institutions\nHands-on production LLM or AI agent experience\nTechnical founder or quota-carrying solutions architect background\nFluency in custody, settlement, payments rails, tokenization, or trading systems\nWhat We Offer:\nCompetitive base salary and discretionary bonus\nHybrid/Flexible Working Arrangements \nFlexible Time Off (paid)\n3% 401(k) company contribution\nCompany-paid health and protective benefits for employees, partners, and other dependents\nGenerous paid Parental Leave\nCompetitive family planning benefits for US employees \nOpportunities to learn about the Crypto industry\nSmart, entrepreneurial, and fun colleagues\nFree daily snacks and weekly breakfasts/lunches \nEmployee Resource Groups\nFree coaching and counseling sessions through Headspace\nApply now and join us as we grow the economy that runs on code. \nThe base salary ranges included below will be commensurate with candidate experience, expertise and local market. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including candidate experience and expertise. At Galaxy, we maintain a total compensation philosophy which consists of a competitive base salary, annual bonus, and equity incentives.\nBase Salary Range\n$215,000—$285,000 USD\nGalaxy respects diversity and seeks to provide equal employment opportunities to all employees and job applicants for employment without regard to actual or perceived age, race, color, creed, religion, sex or gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, lactation and related medical conditions), gender identity or gender expression (including transgender status), sexual orientation, marital or partnership or caregiver status, ancestry, national origin, citizenship status, disability, military or veteran status, protected medical condition as defined by applicable state or local law, genetic information or predisposing genetic characteristic, or other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local laws and ordinances.\nWe will endeavor to make a reasonable accommodation to the known limitations of a qualified applicant with a disability unless the accommodation would impose an undue hardship on the operation of our business.
