About Paxos

Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky — supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.

We’re on a mission to open the world’s financial system to everyone by enabling the instant movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. For over a decade, we’ve built blockchain infrastructure that tokenizes, custodies, trades and settles assets for the world’s leading financial institutions, like Mastercard, Visa, Robinhood, and PayPal.

We’re looking for a Paralegal to join our Legal team and help us scale a world-class, tech-forward legal function that matches the ambition and complexity of our products and partners.

As a Paralegal, you’ll get to:

• Use cutting-edge AI tools to support a technology-forward legal team and streamline contracting, research, and operations.

• Negotiate various commercial agreements, including non-disclosure agreements and vendor agreements, ensuring Paxos’s interests are protected while enabling the business to move quickly.

• Manage legal entity formation and governance, and become an expert on Paxos’s international corporate structure (including maintaining corporate records, board and shareholder consents, and related governance documents).

• Maintain and build out the company’s legal operations function, including improving templates, workflows, playbooks, and systems to increase efficiency and reduce risk.

• Partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders (e.g., Finance, Compliance, Product, Operations, and Procurement) to support commercial, corporate, and operational initiatives.

• Help drive process improvements across the legal team by identifying gaps, proposing solutions, and following through to implementation.

About you

• 2+ years of law firm paralegal experience.

• Experience working on corporate and transactional matters, including drafting and reviewing legal agreements and related documentation.

• Experience working cross-functionally on multiple projects under tight deadlines, with strong organizational skills and attention to detail.

• Desire to work in a fast-paced, dynamic, and demanding environment, with the ability to adapt as priorities and business needs evolve.

• Excellent written and verbal communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to clearly explain legal concepts to non-legal stakeholders.

• Experience using AI legal tools (e.g., for contract review, document automation, or legal research) and an interest in experimenting with new technology to improve legal workflows.

You might also have

• In-house paralegal experience, ideally supporting commercial or corporate work.

• Experience working in a hyper-growth, tech-focused company, preferably in fintech, financial services, or another highly regulated industry.

• Experience with international entity management and governance.

• Familiarity with contract lifecycle management (CLM) tools or legal operations tooling.

To verify a legitimate Paxos recruiter:

• We only use @paxos.com email addresses

• We never ask for payment or financial details to apply, interview, or work here

• For technical roles, we do not perform a coding interview without prior screening by our engineering team
