Bridgewater Township NJ United States Ondo Finance Full time

About the company:

Hi, we're Ondo Finance. Our mission is to provide institutional-grade, blockchain-enabled investment products and services. We have both a technology arm that develops decentralized finance technology, and an asset management arm that creates and manages tokenized funds. We were the first company to tokenize exposure to US Treasuries, and have since expanded into several other assets. We are also focused on incubating protocols that can support both tokenized real-world assets and traditional crypto.

Founded by folks from Goldman Sachs Digital Assets Team, we’re backed by some of the best investors in the world including Founders Fund, Coinbase Ventures, Pantera Capital, Tiger Global, and more. We are currently the leaders in the space in terms of AUM and are well capitalized to continue to grow the firm. We're fully remote, with team members across the U.S.

The AGCC will work closely with the General Counsel to review and update legal strategies for commercial transactions and marketing content, and then lead the implementation of these strategies. This role requires an individual who has a deep understanding of the regulatory landscape for companies operating in the blockchain industry, and who thrives in ambiguity.

  8. Prepare and deliver trainings on legal and compliance issues
  9. Enhance legal operations
  10. Coordinate with external legal counsel as needed

Qualifications:

  1. JD degree from an accredited U.S. law school.
  2. 6-8+ years of transactional legal experience at a major law firm and/or a high-growth blockchain or fintech company
  3. Strong knowledge of commercial transactions as well as securities, anti-money laundering, tax and other financial laws and regulations
  4. Deep understanding of blockchain industry; knowledge of tokenization is a plus
  5. Excellent analytical, research, and writing skills
  6. Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  7. Detail-oriented with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail
  8. Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously
  9. Ability to work independently and as part of a team

What We Offer:

  1. Competitive compensation including salary, future token rights, and/or equity (according to your preferences) — we're well-funded and believe that great talent deserves great compensation
  2. Full benefits (medical, vision, and dental) and flexible vacation policy (PTO)
  3. Small remote-first team across many countries — you'll be an early team member helping shape our vision, culture, and design practices
  4. A+ colleagues — our team includes alumni from: Goldman Sachs, Blackrock, Two Sigma, Bridgewater, SpaceX, AWS, Meta, Google, McKinsey, Circle, Uniswap
