About OpenFX
OpenFX is revolutionizing cross-border money movement, connecting traditional banking systems with digital-native infrastructure, using stablecoins as an intermediary settlement rail to enable near-instant FX conversion and cross-border settlement. In under two years, we’ve raised over $100M in capital and grown from $0 to over $40B in annualized volume, with teams across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
About the Role
We’re hiring a Legal Counsel based in Bangalore who will be a key partner to the business as OpenFX builds out its India presence and continues to scale globally. India is one of OpenFX’s most important markets and home to a hub of approximately 80 employees across product, engineering, compliance, and operations. The role spans three core areas:
The work sits at the intersection of cross-border payments, crypto, and technology, and ranges from novel regulatory questions to complex commercial contracts and general corporate matters. The ideal candidate is a team player energized by a high-growth environment and translating complex legal requirements and ambiguity into clear, actionable guidance for the business. You move quickly with sound judgment, excel as a trusted advisor to business leaders, and view legal work as an enabler of business growth and long-term success.
What You’ll Do
India Regulatory Advisory. Provide practical, forward-thinking legal advice on the Indian regulatory frameworks impacting OpenFX’s business, including RBI regulations (payments, FX, and authorized dealer regimes), IFSCA frameworks at GIFT City, FEMA and cross-border flow requirements, FIU-IND/PMLA obligations, and data protection laws (DPDPA). Support regulatory applications, representations, and structuring of new products and partnerships, and engage with regulators in coordination with outside counsel.
India Market Entry and Product Legal. Partner with product, compliance, and business teams to design and launch OpenFX’s India offering in a compliant manner. Translate complex regulatory requirements into clear, actionable guidance that helps teams build compliant products while shipping fast. Advise on cross-border transaction structures, foreign regulatory implications, and the interaction between Indian rules and OpenFX’s global operating model. Work closely with the Compliance team to ensure contractual arrangements and policies align with licensing conditions and regulatory obligations.
Commercial Contracts and Partnerships. Draft, review, and negotiate commercial agreements that power OpenFX’s business in India and globally, including institutional client agreements, banking and payment partner agreements, liquidity provider arrangements, BaaS and infrastructure partnerships, and intercompany arrangements. Contribute to scalable contracting playbooks, templates, and review processes that allow the business to move quickly without sacrificing quality or risk discipline.
India Hub and Corporate Support. Provide legal support for OpenFX’s Indian entity and Bangalore office of approximately 80 employees, including corporate governance, employment and HR matters, vendor and real estate agreements, privacy and data protection, and other operational legal needs. Coordinate with finance, people, and operations teams to keep the Indian entity running smoothly. Manage local outside counsel efficiently for specialist questions.
Global Legal Team Contribution. Contribute to the work of OpenFX’s global legal function on matters outside India, including commercial contracts with clients and partners, regulatory scoping for new market expansion, and general corporate matters. Collaborate closely with legal team members across the US, UK, and EU, and serve as a force multiplier for the broader function.
Scaling the Legal Function. Help build scalable legal processes and frameworks that support OpenFX’s rapid growth, and contribute to a collaborative, high-performing legal team.
