Intro

MXON is the first live Minter on the M0 Protocol, operating the infrastructure that transforms real-world collateral like U.S. Treasuries into onchain monetary building blocks, $M, the programmable, composable foundation for builders to create application-specific digital dollars through M0’s $M Extensions. Incubated and funded by the M0 project, MXON plays a critical role in bringing institutional-grade assets into the programmable money era.

About the Role

This is a hands-on operations role with a strong emphasis on governance, risk, and compliance.

We’re looking for someone who combines the discipline of traditional finance with the agility of digital assets, and who thrives on bringing structure to dynamic environments.
