Senior Data Scientist

Mysten Labs believes that decentralized and open protocols are the bedrock of the internet of value. This is why at Mysten Labs, we are creating foundational infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of decentralized protocols based on blockchain technologies. The data science team at Mysten Labs is looking to hire a Senior Data Scientist focused on DeFi and stablecoins , two of the fastest-growing and most consequential areas of the Sui ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of product analytics, on-chain measurement, and market structure research, with a mandate to deepen our understanding of how liquidity, lending, DEX activity, and stablecoin flows behave on a high-performance, object-centric blockchain. This role requires existing web3 experience — you should already be comfortable navigating on-chain data, DeFi protocols, and the broader crypto ecosystem. On top of that, backgrounds in quantitative finance, trading, market making, exchanges, or fintech analytics are highly valued and will help you hit the ground running. You'll partner closely with product, engineering, and partnerships to conceptualize, measure, and report on DeFi protocol launches, stablecoin adoption, market maker performance, and broader ecosystem behaviors. The work spans descriptive dashboards, deep-dive research, and entirely new measurement frameworks for a rapidly evolving asset class. The ideal applicant has very strong SQL and visualization skills, a working knowledge of DeFi primitives (AMMs, lending markets, perps, stablecoin mechanisms), and the ability to merge quick iteration with creative ideation. Familiarity with concepts like TVL, volume quality, LP returns, peg stability, mint/redeem flows, and cross-chain bridging is a strong plus. Experience writing stable and maintainable analytics engineering pipelines is a plus, particularly in dbt, or similar frameworks, along with comfort orchestrating jobs against high-volume on-chain data. What You’ll Do: Build dashboards that drive understanding of DeFi protocols and stablecoin activity on Sui for PMs, engineers, Partnerships, and the executive leadership team. Run analyses on liquidity, trading volumes, lending utilization, holder behavior, and stablecoin velocity to identify high-impact opportunities for Mysten Labs and ecosystem partners. Develop measurement frameworks for evaluating DeFi protocol health, wash trading detection, real vs. incentivized activity, and stablecoin adoption quality. Collaborate with the data and engineering teams to set new standards for DeFi and stablecoin measurement across the industry. Partner with BD and partnerships to measure the impact of integrations with major DeFi protocols, stablecoin issuers, and market makers. Make data processing jobs run reliably in a lightweight, scrappy environment. What You’ll Have: A deep interest in DeFi, stablecoins, and the role of on-chain financial infrastructure in daily life. Strong SQL and visualization skills, with a deep desire to communicate clearly and captivatingly. Hands-on experience working with on-chain data (e.g., Dune, Flipside, Allium, or raw node/indexer data). Familiarity with DeFi primitives and key metrics (TVL, volume, LP economics, lending utilization, mint/redeem activity). Strong attention to detail and a desire to work on data analysis as a collaborative discipline across data, engineering, product, partnerships, and marketing teams. Bonus: experience with market microstructure, quantitative finance, or trading analytics. Employment is contingent upon the successful completion of a background check, which may include verification of employment history, education credentials, criminal history, and other relevant information. Regarding the recent rash of technology job scams: Be aware that emails from genuine Mysten Labs group recruiters will always come from the @ mystenlabs.com domain or related subdomains (e.g., mystenlabs.com/careers ). Remember: you can always verify positions on our job boards at www.mystenlabs.com/careers .
