## About the Role

Do you have experience in Stakeholder engagement?, This role is designed for someone who understands crypto and emerging technologies and enjoys working through questions where the answers are still forming. You bring familiarity with blockchain, digital asset ecosystems, or adjacent technologies, along with the ability to think in systems rather than silos.

You are comfortable operating in ambiguity, asking insightful questions, and collaborating across disciplines to surface risks, trade-offs, and opportunities. This role values judgment, curiosity, and the ability to connect ideas across technology, business models, and risk considerations.

Experience engaging with policy, regulatory, or risk topics is helpful, but deep specialization is not required. What matters most is how you think, how you communicate, and how you partner with others.

We are particularly interested in candidates who demonstrate:

 * Understanding of blockchain systems and emerging technology use cases
 * Experience applying emerging technology within financial services, fintech, or market infrastructure
 * Ability to translate complex ideas across technical and non-technical audiences
 * Clear written and verbal communication skills
 * Intellectual curiosity and sound judgment when navigating new or unfamiliar issues

## Description

Are you energized by how emerging technologies are reshaping financial services-and curious about what comes next before clear rules or frameworks emerge? Do you enjoy exploring complex questions where technology, innovation, and responsibility intersect? This role sits at the crossroads of innovation, technology, and public policy, helping Fidelity navigate change while staying grounded in trust and long-term stewardship.

As Policy Director, Digital Assets & Emerging Technology, you will help shape how Fidelity engages with blockchain-based innovation and cross-enterprise technology change. Working closely across the firm, you will support thoughtful decision-making as new technologies influence markets, business models, and investor expectations.

Your role:

 * Shaping strategic thinking on blockchain, digital assets, and emerging technologies across financial services
 * Partnering with business, legal, compliance, risk, and technology teams to evaluate new ideas and initiatives
 * Translating evolving technology concepts into clear policy, risk, and regulatory considerations
 * Asking forward-looking questions about how technology changes incentives, responsibilities, and oversight
 * Monitoring trends across market innovation, including the rise of agentic financial services and intersections with cybersecurity, privacy, and artificial intelligence
 * Supporting external engagement with regulators, policymakers, and industry groups in a constructive and informed way
 * Preparing senior leaders for decisions amid uncertainty and change
