Job Description

At Anchorage Digital we are building the world’s most advanced digital asset platform for institutions to participate in crypto.

 

Founded in 2017, Anchorage Digital is a regulated crypto platform that provides institutions with integrated financial services and infrastructure solutions. With the first federally chartered crypto bank in the US, Anchorage Digital offers institutions an unparalleled combination of secure custody, regulatory compliance, product breadth, and client service. We’re looking to diversify our team with people who are humble, creative, and eager to learn.

 

We are a remote friendly, global team, but provide the option of working in-office in San Francisco, New York City, Indianapolis, Sioux Falls, Porto, and Singapore.

 

In the fast-paced world of crypto we must memorialize our relationships in ways that stand the test of time. We need a sharp legal negotiator to assist with the documentation of our core services - all missions critical to our operations.  In addition, we need someone with the intellect and curiosity to help us build new business lines.

As a Corporate & Commercial Counsel you will:

    • Own vendor and counterparty contract drafting and negotiations, and third party risk management from a legal perspective.
    • Draft and negotiate a wide range of commercial and brokerage/trading contracts, including master services agreements, liquidity provider agreements, brokerage agreements, NDAs, vendor agreements, partnership agreements, and more - our business and products are always evolving!
    • Build a close relationship with the sales, product, engineering, operations, and other teams to collaborate closely in developing new products, improving existing businesses, identify and resolve legal issues, structure complex agreements, and improve efficiency.

You may be a fit for this role if:

    • You have a J.D. degree and 4+ years of experience.
    • You have a background in drafting and negotiating a wide range of commercial contracts, including experience with brokerage or other trading-related agreements, and are comfortable facing highly-sophisticated institutional clients and counterparties.
    • You have demonstrated experience working closely with the business and other cross functional teams to build new products, solve complex issues, and strategize growth.
    • You have enthusiasm for crypto and a foundational understanding of the crypto industry and applicable laws/regulations both in the US and internationally.
    • You demonstrate close attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple projects. 
    • You have the ability to execute with moderate supervision and balance commercial and legal realities.

Although not a requirement, bonus points if:

    • You were emotionally moved by the soundtrack to Hamilton, which chronicles the founding of a new financial system. :)
