About this BD Specialist (English / Japanese / Korean Markets) role at Orderly
Work with the Best
Orderly Network is a combination of an orderbook-based trading infrastructure and a robust liquidity layer offering spot and perpetual futures orderbooks. Unlike traditional platforms, Orderly doesn’t have a front end; instead, it operates at the core of the ecosystem, providing essential services to projects built on top of it.
Our DEX white-label solution is carefully crafted to save builders time and capital while granting access to our bootstrapped liquidity. Picture having the best features of CEXs while keeping settlements on-chain and maintaining full self-custody.
With Orderly, anyone can create a trading application thanks to our seamless plug-and-play experience leveraging our liquidity and composability.
Looking ahead, our grand vision is to create an omnichain protocol, connecting traders from both EVM and non-EVM chains within the same orderbook.
A Glimpse into Your Future at Orderly Network
Orderly's Partnership team accelerates the growth of our ecosystem by identifying, engaging, and supporting builders and partners who build on top of Orderly's infrastructure.

This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone who thinks in systems — who can apply internet-era frameworks (funnel management, data-driven tracking, automated workflows) to relationship building and pipeline management at scale.
