About the role

As Counsel, Corporate and FinTech Product, you will be a cornerstone of the FalconX legal team, driving the execution of our global commercial strategy while safeguarding the firm's corporate integrity.
You will provide strategic legal guidance across a broad spectrum of corporate, regulatory, and transactional matters.

Commercial Contracting: Lead the drafting, negotiation, and review of complex commercial agreements, including SaaS licensing, strategic partnerships, vendor services, and client-facing institutional trading agreements.
Corporate Governance: Provide legal counsel on corporate governance frameworks, manage entity management tasks, and assist in preparing materials for Board of Directors meetings.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Sales teams to launch new features while adhering to financial regulations.
Navigating the digital asset market can be complex and fragmented, with limited products and services that support trading strategies, structures, and liquidity found in conventional financial markets.
This role requires a high-energy "builder" mindset, working cross-functionally to support rapid business initiatives and ensuring compliance with evolving global regulations.

Subject Matter Expertise: Deep experience in corporate law, commercial transactions (specifically SaaS and partnerships), and fintech regulations.
Soft Skills: Ability to distill complex legal concepts into actionable business advice for non-legal stakeholders.
