Lido DAO Operations Lead

role overview

Any DAO has a stream of decisions and actions to carry out, both on-chain and off-chain. Due to the nature of the industry, those actions require high transparency of planning, communications, and operational excellence: DAO members and general public should know what to expect and how to cross-check the DAO actions, and there’s no room for error in on-chain ops.

The DAO Operations Lead is responsible for designing, facilitating, and overseeing governance and operations processes to ensure that DAO decisions are executed and implemented in an effective, safe, and timely manner.

responsibilities

• Designing Core Ops processes for the DAO and helping other departments leverage best-practices for their internal processes
• Driving and facilitating decision making on project management and tooling for DAO operations
• Day-to-day operations for committees, ops teams and maintenance of regular processes (e.g. LP rewards, referral programs, contributor compensations & other sub-DAO org support)
• Protocol management & upgrade operations (making sure the updates in smart contracts owned & managed by DAO are made in transparent & timely manner), including key holder coordination and management (where applicable)
• One-off actions on behalf of the DAO (such as 1M ETH staked NFT giveaway, setting ENS names for protocol contracts, etc.)
• Keeping track of and reporting on off-chain processes (periodic committee renewals, committee policies and processes, etc.)

requirements

The DAO Operations Lead role requires a mix of operational, management, and technical skills:

• Blockhain operational skills in performing on-chain operations through the means necessary (special & general-purpose UIs, scripting, multisig ops)
• Proven ability to plan and manage operational process for maximum efficiency and productivity
