About Atrya

Atrya is building the next generation of payment providers - a native, fully compliant payment infrastructure based on electronic money tokens. Our goal is to make payments faster, programmable, and seamlessly integrated into digital platforms.

Our products range from cross-border transactions to Agent-to-Agent Pay, enabling digital payments for e-commerce and beyond - all powered by our e-money token infrastructure. We’re VC-backed and growing fast, combining the precision of regulated finance with the agility of modern tech.

Your Role

As a Scientific Research Associate (Regulatory & Product), you’ll work directly with our founders, Lorian, Julia and Ben, supporting strategic initiatives in regulation, product development, and go-to-market execution. You’ll gain hands-on insight into how a regulated fintech operates and help shape our MiCAR and DORA frameworks - key pillars of Atrya’s licensing and product roadmap.

This is a high-impact role in a fast-moving environment where ownership and execution matter, bridging disciplines between tech, regulation, and product.

• Support the founders in regulatory and product-related topics (MiCAR, DORA, PSD3, AML).
• Help draft compliance frameworks, risk procedures, and documentation for licensing.
• Assist in building back-office operations in Greece or Latvia.
• Contribute to product–market fit and assist with product design for stablecoin-based payments.
• Build flowcharts and process maps for internal and regulatory use.
• Conduct market and regulatory research across the EU fintech landscape.
• Collaborate with tech and operations teams to align compliance and product requirements.
• Prepare documentation for investors, regulators, and partners (e.g., PwC, legal advisors).

Requirements

• Student or recent graduate in Business, Law, Finance, or Economics.
• Hands-on, ownership, structured, and analytical, with a bias toward execution.
• Able to use standard tools (e.g., PowerPoint) independently; proactive and detail-oriented.
• Communicates clearly in English (German is a plus).
• Interest in fintech regulation (MiCAR, DORA, PSD3, AML) and digital assets.
• Reliable, curious, and eager to learn directly from the founders.

Benefits

• Work side-by-side with the founders Benjamin James, Lorian Qorraj and Julia Beermann on real fintech challenges.
• Learn how regulated payment systems are built from the ground up.
• Join a VC-backed, next-generation payment provider shaping the future of compliant payments.
• Take ownership from day one — your work will directly impact how we operate.
• Be part of a small, international team based in Berlin and Hamburg
