Full Job Description

Few people get to build a bank from scratch. Even fewer get to build one at a moment when banking itself is being reinvented. The dollar is the best product in the history of the world, with practically infinite global demand, but distribution is broken. Global clearing runs on legacy banks that are closed 115 days a year, built for humans and take two days to settle. Augustus is the update to the internet era. We received conditional approval from the OCC to charter America’s first stablecoin-native clearing bank that is always open, made for machines, at the speed of compute. We are a group of operators, unicorn early employees, ex-founders and people who walked away from degrees because they believe this is an industry and career defining opportunity. We're backed with $40M from Peter Thiel’s Valar Ventures, Creandum and founders of Ramp, Deel and Circle. We are regulated in Europe and live with Euro and Stablecoin clearing today. Now, we are building the US team from the ground up, while continuing to grow rapidly in Europe. THE ROLE You are the first Forward Deployed Engineer at Augustus and own the technical execution behind every Tier 1 account: building the integrations, scripts, and automations that get key merchants from signature to steady state. You make the technology work. When an Account Manager needs a merchant's webhook debugged, a custom integration scoped, or a one-off script to unblock a go-live, you ship it. You sit on the technical calls, read the logs, and turn each high-stakes integration into a building block of the system. The script you write to onboard one Tier 1 account becomes the flow that runs hands-off for the next ten. You work alongside Operations, Engineering, Product, and Revenue. The merchants are yours to drive technically; the system is yours to extend with every account you ship. YOUR FIRST SIX MONTHS - Month 1-2: You learn our API, our infrastructure, and our merchant base. You shadow live Tier 1 engagements, take ownership
