Legal Counsel

RemoteFull-timeSeniorPosted: May 8, 2026

About the Role

Uncharted Network operates at the intersection of algorithmic finance, digital assets, and regulated capital markets — and our legal function needs to be as sophisticated as the products we build. As Legal Counsel, you will provide multi-jurisdictional advice on digital-asset structuring, UNT token governance, investor agreements, and regulatory compliance across MiCA, MiFID II, and the evolving global framework for private investment portals. You will work directly with the founding team and external counsel to ensure every product decision is legally defensible and every investor communication meets our disclosure standards. This is a high-ownership role where legal strategy and business strategy are the same conversation.

Responsibilities

  • Advise on multi-jurisdictional digital-asset regulatory frameworks: MiCA, MiFID II, FCA, MAS, and applicable AML directives
  • Structure and review UNT token governance documentation, investor agreements, and token-holder rights frameworks
  • Draft, negotiate, and maintain commercial agreements with exchanges, custodians, data providers, and service partners
  • Support AML/KYC policy design in coordination with the Compliance team and external legal counsel
  • Monitor legislative and regulatory developments in crypto and digital-asset markets globally and brief leadership on material changes
  • Participate in investor relations and governance matters including board and investment-committee documentation

Requirements

  • Qualified solicitor, barrister, or equivalent civil-law attorney with 5+ years of post-qualification experience
  • In-depth knowledge of digital-asset regulatory frameworks in at least two major jurisdictions (EU, UK, Singapore, or US)
  • Experience advising on token structuring, securities law applicability, and investment product compliance
  • Strong drafting and negotiation skills; able to work efficiently under time pressure and in ambiguous regulatory environments
  • Comfortable engaging directly with regulators, auditors, and institutional investors
  • Discreet and precise communicator with high tolerance for ambiguity in evolving legal frameworks

Nice to Have

  • Experience with blockchain analytics tools (Chainalysis, Elliptic) in an AML or sanctions-screening context
  • Knowledge of DeFi protocol governance structures and on-chain DAO legal frameworks
  • Prior in-house experience at a crypto exchange, DeFi protocol, or digital-asset fund
What We Offer
  • Competitive fiat salary + UNT token allocation
  • Fully remote with flexible hours
  • Direct access to founding leadership and material influence on firm governance and regulatory strategy
  • Annual regulatory education and bar association budget
  • Private health and wellness coverage
