We are seeking a Risk Specialist - Digital Assets with experience in structured risk management within a regulated financial services environment and a strong interest or exposure to blockchain-based products.

You will act as a key contributor to the Institute’s second-line risk function, supporting the evaluation of new blockchain integrations, product developments and outsourcing arrangements under MiCA and DORA. The role combines traditional operational risk management with digital asset–specific risk considerations.
You will report directly to the Director of Risk and independently manage defined risk workstreams, particularly in the assessment of new blockchain integrations and product developments.
Conduct inherent and residual risk assessments in line with the Institute’s risk methodology
Maintain and enhance the risk inventory, including control mapping and documentation standards
Assess control design and effectiveness across operational and technology-related processes
Monitor KRIs and risk appetite thresholds, including follow-up and escalation where required
Support tracking and monitoring of recovery indicators and related governance processes
Contribute to material change assessments and structured risk papers for management
Perform end-to-end risk assessments for new blockchain integrations (e.g., L1/L2 chains, bridge solutions)
Assess impact on existing operational processes, governance structures and control frameworks
Evaluate smart contract-related risk exposure at a conceptual level (e.g., mint/burn controls, upgradeability, governance mechanisms)
Identify operational, ICT, outsourcing and concentration risks arising from new initiatives
Support the preparation of clear, decision-ready risk assessments for internal approval committees
Support alignment of ICT and outsourcing risk management with MiCA and DORA requirements
Evaluate third-party providers (e.g., custody, bridge, oracle and technology providers) from a risk and criticality perspective
Assess resilience, dependency, concentration and exit strategy considerations
Contribute to operational resilience testing and scenario development
Ensure technology and outsourcing risks are consistently reflected in the overall risk profile
Translate technical setups into structured, risk-relevant documentation
Identify key risk drivers such as governance risk, third-party dependency and single points of failure
Challenge control design constructively and propose practical mitigation measures
Support stress scenario development (e.g., bridge exploit, de-pegging, chain halt)
Experience
2–5 years of professional experience in Risk Management, Operational Risk, Internal Audit or Risk Advisory
Experience in a regulated financial services environment (e.g., bank, EMI, fintech or comparable institution)
Practical exposure to risk assessments, control evaluations and governance processes
Experience supporting new product approvals or material change assessments is a strong advantage
Technical & Regulatory Knowledge
Solid understanding of risk assessment methodologies (inherent/residual risk, control effectiveness, risk appetite frameworks)
Familiarity with blockchain fundamentals (e.g., token issuance, smart contracts, L1/L2 chains, bridge concepts)
Understanding of operational and technology risk in digital asset environments
Knowledge of MiCA and/or DORA requirements is strongly preferred
Awareness of outsourcing and third-party risk principles in regulated institutions
Skills & Working Style
Strong analytical and structured thinking
Excellent documentation and drafting skills in English (German is a plus)
Ability to translate technical and regulatory topics into clear risk documentation
Independent and solution-oriented working style
Confidence to challenge constructively while collaborating across functions
High attention to detail and ownership mindset
In this role, you will not only monitor risk — you will actively contribute to the development and refinement of the risk framework of a BaFin-regulated euro stablecoin institution operating under MiCA and DORA. You will gain hands-on experience at the intersection of traditional financial risk management and blockchain-based infrastructure, working closely with senior leadership in a highly regulated environment. This role offers meaningful ownership, regulatory depth and exposure to one of Europe’s most innovative digital financial initiatives.
