THE WORK: Ripple is expanding its Business Development team in North America and hiring a Business Development Manager to drive RWA tokenization and institutional DeFi activity on the XRP Ledger. This role sits at the intersection of institutional capital markets and regulated on-chain infrastructure, with responsibility for sourcing, structuring, and closing partnerships with asset managers, issuers, broker-dealers, custodians, tokenization platforms, and institutional DeFi venues that will make XRPL the venue of choice for tokenized real-world assets. Your portfolio spans two priorities under the RWA tokenization umbrella: * XRP Ledger (XRPL) Collateral Mobility — mobilizing tokenized assets as on-chain collateral across repo, lending, prime brokerage, trading, and the broader institutional DeFi stack. * Ripple Capital Markets (RCM), Ripple's institutional product for bringing capital markets workflows (issuance, settlement, post-trade) onto the XRP Ledger. You will execute against the strategy and translate it into a partner book that moves the market — not incrementally, but materially. Based in our New York office alongside the Ripple Prime team, you will also partner directly with Ripple Prime to source and structure joint opportunities that pair tokenized asset issuance and on-chain capital markets workflows with Ripple Prime's institutional offer
