Risk Lead -- Atlas Axis -- Sky

Sky.Money is building the financial backbone for the decentralized economy. As part of the broader Sky ecosystem, we enable safe, efficient, and scalable mechanisms for onboarding new forms of collateral and ensuring the long-term resilience of decentralized financial systems. Our work intersects DeFi, stablecoins, and governance at scale, and we are shaping how the next generation of financial infrastructure is secured.

The Role

We are looking for a DeFi Risk Analyst to join our team and play a central role in evaluating and monitoring risks across the DeFi ecosystem. Your focus will be on analyzing collateral types and protocols proposed for integration into Sky’s systems, assessing their viability, security, and risk profile. You will collaborate closely with treasury, engineering, and governance teams to design frameworks that ensure safe collateral onboarding and sustainable risk management.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct in-depth risk assessments  of DeFi protocols (AMMs, lending markets, bridges, LSTs, etc.) being considered for collateral onboarding.

• Analyze smart contract, liquidity, counterparty, and market risks across protocols and assets.

• Develop and refine risk models and frameworks for evaluating new collateral types (on-chain and off-chain).

• Collaborate with engineers and governance participants to present risk evaluations, dashboards, and scenario analyses.

• Monitor the ongoing performance and risk exposure of existing collateral types.

• Produce clear, data-driven reports and recommendations for governance and internal stakeholders.

• Stay ahead of DeFi trends, exploits, and evolving risk practices, incorporating learnings into Sky’s risk frameworks.
