  • Partner with the leadership team to align strategy with business growth
  • Respond decisively during market shifts or protocol risks


What We’re Looking For:

  • A proven track record of personally managing multi-million-dollar DeFi portfolios with measurable P&L
  • Deep knowledge of AMMs (Uniswap, Curve, Balancer), lending (Aave), yield optimisation (Yearn)
  • Sharp grasp of DeFi risk mechanics: impermanent loss, liquidations, correlations
  • Comfortable with Python or JavaScript for dashboards/automation
  • A proactive, commercially minded operator who thrives in fast-moving environments
  • Adaptable and curious - quick to get under the hood of new chains and protocols

Why Blockchain Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Blockchain was once a niche technology, associated mostly with Bitcoin & cryptocurrency trading. In the UK today, it’s become a mainstream enabler of decentralised finance, supply chain traceability, identity management, health data sharing & even cultural products like NFTs. As blockchain matures, careers in the sector are expanding beyond developers & cryptographers. A blockchain project doesn’t just need people who can write smart contracts or design consensus mechanisms. It needs lawyers who understand regulation, ethicists who anticipate harm, psychologists who study user behaviour, linguists who simplify complex communication, and designers who build usable, trustworthy interfaces. In this article, we’ll explore why UK blockchain careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design shape the sector, and what job-seekers & employers must do to thrive.

This guide explains the structure of a modern blockchain team, breaks down each role, discusses collaboration across the product lifecycle, and highlights UK career prospects and salaries.
