People Partner

Morpho is a leading Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending protocol that raised $70 million from Ribbit Capital, a16z crypto, Coinbase Ventures, Variant, Brevan Howard, Pantera, Blocktower, and 50 others to build an open lending network giving anyone, anywhere, access to the best possible terms. Morpho is experiencing explosive growth, with over $10 billion in deposits on the network, solidifying itself as the new standard for DeFi lending. Now, Morpho is scaling its team of contributors to establish itself as a cornerstone, not just of DeFi, but of a new internet-native financial system.

- Support managers in developing their people, running effective monthly one-on-ones, and navigating tough performance conversations with clarity and confidence. - Own and continuously improve the onboarding experience so every new hire ramps fast, understands the culture, and feels set up to contribute from day one. - Help contributors grow and develop in a way that genuinely fits Morpho: adapt what growth support looks like here rather than importing off-the-shelf frameworks from elsewhere. - Work with Finance to define and maintain compensation bands that keep Morpho competitive and equitable across geographies. - Own benefits, health insurance, and HR tooling decisions and implementation across all locations. - Work closely with the recruiting team to raise the bar on talent acquisition and deepen their capabilities. - Shape headcount planning in coordination with leadership and hiring managers.

- 5+ years in a hands-on People Partner, HRBP, or People Operations role at a company with genuinely high talent density. - Has worked at an organization known for exceptional talent standards: crypto-native (Uniswap, Coinbase, Optimism), high-growth fintech (Stripe, Revolut), or similar. The exposure to exceptional standards, not the name brand, is what matters. - Solid background in people operations: performance management, compensation, onboarding, and supporting people in their growth and development. - Execution-oriented: builds and runs processes, does not only advise. - Experience helping managers navigate difficult performance and development conversations. - Up to date with technology and AI tools in the HR space. Morpho is a tech-forward team and this person should accelerate, not slow down, that pace. - Adaptable in a fast-changing context with shifting priorities and real ambiguity. - Clear and crisp async communication across a distributed team. - Ownership and autonomy: sets priorities independently and moves without needing to be pushed. - Humble.
