Product

You own the heart of the programmable bank: Payments and Accounts. The full global payment stack - US rails (ACH, FedWire, FedNow), international Swift, European schemes (SEPA, SEPA Instant, FPS), and the programmable accounts layer: DDAs, FBOs, and virtual accounts. Each is both a technical layer and a commercial product.

The end state: enterprise customers plug into Augustus via API and move money anywhere in the world, instantly, 24/7. Your job is to challenge the status quo - to understand what's possible on these rails and push further. Every product you ship should offer our customers something they've never been able to get from a bank before.

You'll work on Marble, our proprietary bank core. Your product decisions directly shape what robust, scalable, and fast means in practice. You'll get deep into the use cases our customers are building: how a stablecoin operator structures flows, how an OTC desk runs settlement, how a correspondent bank thinks about reconciliation. That understanding lets you work with design and engineering to develop our platform to uniquely solve for our customers needs.

You report to Will, Head of Product, and work closely with Simon, our CTO. You're expected to operate with full autonomy on your team's roadmap.
