About RealFi:

RealFi is building the next generation of stablecoin infrastructure — a productive, yield-bearing stablecoin (USDr) backed by diversified, institutional-grade private credit.

While first launching on Cardano, RealFi is designed as a cross-chain yield layer, expanding to EVM ecosystems and later Solana

, integrating directly with leading DeFi protocols, exchanges, and liquidity venues.

Our mission is to transform stablecoins from idle digital dollars into productive economic infrastructure — safely, transparently, and at scale.

Job Purpose

The Marketing Lead is responsible for defining, owning, and scaling RealFi's market narrative, positioning, and credibility from pre-launch through long-term growth. This role serves as the strategic steward of the company's external perception, ensuring RealFi is understood, trusted, and valued across all key stakeholders.

This is a senior marketing position focused on building durable trust, defining category leadership, strengthening capital market confidence, and establishing long-term brand equity. It is not a tactical growth or community-only role, but a mandate to shape how RealFi is positioned within the broader DeFi and financial ecosystem.

The Marketing Lead will drive how RealFi is perceived by DeFi power users, institutional investors, exchanges and ecosystem partners, as well as regulators, analysts, and the wider market, ensuring clarity, credibility, and consistency at every stage of the company's evolution.
