Growth Manager - Asia

Ellipsis Labs is a profitable, venture-backed New York startup building performant DeFi protocols on high-throughput decentralized infrastructure. Our long-term mission is to build a more efficient, transparent, and fair financial system.

Our flagship product, Phoenix Perpetuals, brings professional-grade perpetual futures to Solana. Phoenix has processed over $4 billion in trading volume and is growing 20% month over month, adding to the more than $300 billion our products have facilitated to date. Behind Phoenix is a lean, high-caliber team with experience at top trading firms, blockchain companies, and tech companies.

Ellipsis Labs is seeking a Growth Manager to build and activate our presence across Asian crypto markets. Our go-to-market today is largely driven by social media, and we need boots on the ground to develop the local relationships, market intelligence, and trust that a remote presence can't replicate. This is an early and high-ownership role: you will be the company's primary bridge to one of the most important trading ecosystems in the world.

In this role, you will:

• Map the Asian crypto trading landscape, including understanding who the key retail traders, whale accounts, and market makers are, where they're active, and what they care about

• Build and cultivate relationships with high-value traders and ecosystem participants across Asia

• Develop and execute a strategy for winning a meaningful segment of Asian traders onto Phoenix, with a focus on retail-whale accounts

• Represent Ellipsis Labs at industry events and in direct community settings, including with KOLs and key trading communities

• Surface market intelligence back to the team: competitive dynamics, trader preferences, emerging platforms, and shifts in sentiment

• Work closely with the broader team to refine our regional strategy over time

Qualifications

Required

• Deep roots in crypto, with experience that spans multiple market cycles

• Strong existing network in the Asian trading ecosystem, with relationships you can activate immediately

• Background at or alongside a centralized exchange, trading firm, or DeFi protocol: you understand how exchanges work and have credibility with the people who use them

• Fluency in Mandarin and/or Cantonese, and strong English communication skills

• High agency and sound judgment. This role operates with significant independence and limited supervision

Preferred

• Existing relationships with whale traders, market makers, or institutional accounts in the region

• Experience with on-chain trading products, perpetuals, or DeFi protocols

• Comfort traveling within the region and to the US 8 weeks/year to work alongside the team in person
