Third Party Risk Manager

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 - there is infinite global demand. But International Fintechs and non-US banks are left with two unsatisfying options to access it:
Either they build on legacy clearing banks that are slow and unreliable, or they interface with middleware providers that don’t move and hold the dollars directly, but themselves rely on underlying legacy banks. Augustus collapses this stack by combining two things: A real, national bank charter (in organization), and Marble, our proprietary core banking system, built around intelligence, made of code.

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 are backed with more than $200M from Peter Thiel's Valar Ventures, Tiger Global, Hummingbird, QED, Creandum, and the founders of Nubank, Ramp, Deel, Circle, Fluidstack, Fuse, and n8n.

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.

You own the mechanics that make the TPRM program run day to day. You are the person who keeps the vendor and partner inventory reconciled, moves relationships through onboarding and due diligence, coordinates SME reviews across every function that touches third-party risk, tracks BCDR posture on every critical vendor, and keeps the TPRM issues pipeline current.

You own:

• Inventory: maintaining the third-party inventory and running the quarterly reconciliation against payment and contracting data (you do not own payment/contracting controls yourself — you reconcile against them).

• Onboarding: running new vendor and partner relationships through intake and onboarding.

• Initial & Ongoing Due Diligence: executing initial due diligence at onboarding and ongoing due diligence on the recurring schedule for existing relationships.

• Audit Oversight: tracking and coordinating third-party audit requirements and following up on findings.

• SME Reviews: coordinating and tracking risk-based reviews with subject matter experts across Information Technology, Information Security, BSA/AML & OFAC, Compliance (Consumer & Regulatory), Credit, Finance, and Legal.

• BCDR: collecting and tracking RTO & RPO assessments for critical vendors, and maintaining exit plans.

• Fourth Party Due Diligence: extending due diligence downstream to critical fourth parties where required.

• Vendor DDQ & Partner DDQ: administering and tracking due diligence questionnaires for both vendor and partner relationships.

• SLA: tracking service level agreements and monitoring performance against them.

• Issues: maintaining the TPRM issues log from identification through remediation and closure.

• Reverse Due Diligence: supporting due diligence requests that come from partners and counter parties assessing Augustus.

• Weeks 1-4: You learn how third-party risk actually runs today — what's in (and missing from) the inventory, how onboarding and due diligence really move through the pipeline, which SME reviews are current versus overdue, what BCDR and exit plan documentation exists for critical vendors, and where the issues log breaks down.

  Weeks 5-8: You take over the operational cadence. Onboarding and due diligence are moving on schedule. The inventory reconciliation is running quarterly without prompting. SME reviews are tracked and chased across all seven functions. DDQs are going out and coming back on time.

  Weeks 9-12: You start closing gaps — cleaning up the BCDR and exit plan documentation for…
