RWA Business Director

The RWA Business Director will lead proposals, development, and implementation for businesses that digitize real-world assets using blockchain. The assets include leasing transactions, supply-chain finance, and various receivables. The role works with existing RWA market participants and serves as the product owner for a specific asset area, helping drive the business together with partner organizations.

Responsibilities include supporting the design of RWA business logic based on asset rights and cash flows. The role analyzes the full asset lifecycle, from origination through final collection, and visualizes an ideal workflow that can be completed digitally. It also coordinates with partner companies and legal and accounting specialists to assess whether proposed structures can be implemented. Business logic must be abstracted and documented to a level that engineers can use for product implementation.

Applicants must have at least three years of practical experience with a specific asset that could be tokenized as an RWA. Relevant areas include leasing, receivables management, intercompany payments, and lending operations. Candidates must understand the mechanisms used for screening, management, and collection in one of these areas. The role also requires the ability to break down complex business practices and organize them into flowcharts or logic diagrams that third parties can understand, as well as a strong interest in combining established financial operations with Web3 technology.

Preferred experience includes screening, contract operations, or planning work in a financial institution or a corporate finance department; participation in business-improvement projects or new-service launches; and basic knowledge of financial law and accounting, including the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, payment-related law, or bookkeeping.

The role requires someone who can bridge technical and business perspectives. The person will translate concepts such as Account Abstraction and PDA into business concepts such as customer experience and profitability for clients and executives. The position also involves adapting to regulatory and technology changes in Web3, executing an agreed strategy amid uncertainty, and maintaining project momentum while meeting milestones across the differing cultures and speeds of a large company and the Web3 sector.

The position is in the Business Promotion Department of the Blockchain Promotion Office, serving SBI Holdings, Inc. and SBI R3Japan, Inc. Possible career directions described in the posting include responsibility for a Web3 business, specialization in ecosystem strategy and project launches on chains such as Solana and Ethereum, and specialization in new business development combining blockchain with technologies such as AI and IoT.
