Role Overview
CertiK is the global leader in Web3 and blockchain security. We are seeking a high-energy, target-driven Business Development Manager based in Hong Kong to accelerate our growth across the APAC region.
In this role, you will lead end-to-end sales cycles—from proactive outbound lead generation to closing deals for our suite of security solutions, including smart contract audits, penetration testing, formal verification, Skynet threat monitoring, and compliance services.
You will serve as a bridge between traditional financial institutions entering the digital asset space (Web2) and crypto-native projects (Web3), leveraging your regional market understanding and language capabilities to secure high-value security partnerships.
Key Responsibilities

Pipeline Generation & Outbound BD: Actively identify, prospect, and engage decision-makers (CTOs, Founders, Head of Web3/Digital Assets) across blockchain protocols, DeFi projects, RWA tokenization platforms, exchanges, and Web2 institutional entrants.
-
Full Sales Cycle Execution: Drive complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles from initial outreach and technical discovery to proposal creation, price negotiation, and contract execution.
-
Enterprise & Institutional Sales: Engage traditional financial institutions, asset managers, family offices, and tech enterprises seeking institutional-grade security for their Web3 initiatives.
-
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with CertiK’s global security engineering, solutions architecture, delivery, and marketing teams to ensure smooth deal execution and client onboarding.
-
Account Expansion & Networking: Build long-term relationships with key accounts to drive renewals, audit add-ons, and monitoring subscriptions. Represent CertiK at local industry events, conferences, and ecosystem meetups.
Key Requirements & Qualifications
-
Experience: 2–5 years of successful B2B sales or business development experience in Web3, blockchain security, cybersecurity, SaaS, or institutional fintech.
-
Domain Knowledge:
-
Strong familiarity with Web3 native ecosystems (EVM chains, Layer 1/Layer 2 protocols, DeFi, tokenomics, smart contract architectures).
-
Good understanding of Web2 cybersecurity fundamentals (e.g., penetration testing, code review, risk assessments).
