We support $171B+ in assets and have powered investments into over 13,000 startups—over 300 of which are unicorns. Today, 57% of top-tier U.S. VC deals involve investors on AngelList. While our scale is large, our ambition is larger. If you're excited to build the future of private markets, come build with us. ABOUT THE ROLE: AngelList is hiring a Product Counsel to lead legal for our newest financial products. AngelList built banking infrastructure that already powers $171B+ in assets. Now it's scaling that infrastructure into a new suite of banking, payments, investment, and credit products for funds, GPs, and the LPs who back them. You'll structure new offerings with product, engineering, and compliance; define the regulatory perimeter across bank partnerships, credit, and securities; negotiate with sponsor banks and vendors; and write the terms and disclosures. You'll partner directly with the general manager and executive team, and your judgment will shape what we ship.   Responsibilities: * Own the legal design of each new product for banking, payments, investment and credit. * Negotiate with the sponsor banks, payment processors, card networks, and lenders. * Draft terms, disclosures, and product agreements * Partner with Compliance to build and maintain controls, guardrails and support models for new products. * Give the general manager and executives clear recommendations and alternatives on risks and tradeoffs. * Serve as the escalation point for regulators, bank partners, and outside counsel. What we're looking for: * 10+ years of legal experience, with meaningful time as the lead on financial products: GC, deputy GC, or head of product legal at a fintech. * Deep fluency in bank partnership programs, payments, money transmission, and lending regulation. * Working knowledge of securities law as it applies to investment products (Advisers Act, broker-dealer regulation, or fund structures). * A builder's track record: you've taken regulated financial products from zero to launch, and you like operating as the only lawyer in the room. * Pragmatic judgment: you quickly translate regulatory ambiguity into clear product decisions and defensible risk calls. * Crisp, concise communication with engineers, product managers, bank partners, and regulators alike.   WORKING HERE If you don’t meet every requirement above, we still encourage you to apply.
