Marketing Communications Associate

Marketing Communications Associate – Enterprise Blockchain & DeFi

About Obsidian Systems

Obsidian Systems is a leading engineering company developing applications on the Canton Network, the first enterprise-grade blockchain purpose-built for regulated financial institutions. As major banks, trading firms, and financial institutions rapidly adopt our technology, we’re experiencing significant growth. Our flagship product, Tradecraft, is the first operational trading application on the Canton Network.

The Role

We’re seeking a hands-on Marketing Communications Associate to execute tactical campaigns and learn at the intersection of traditional finance and decentralized technology. In this role, you will work directly with our CMO and agency partners to drive user acquisition for institutional financial applications.

Who You Are

You have a background in finance or business and are eager to explore how blockchain is transforming capital markets. You’ve executed B2B marketing campaigns and want to operate where traditional finance meets cutting-edge decentralized technology.

Your communication skills enable you to explain complex solutions to sophisticated institutional buyers. You excel in fast-paced environments, manage details meticulously, and help craft compelling narratives for emerging technology.
