About AngelList
Private markets are the new public markets. The most important companies of this era are private, and almost no one can own them. What's missing is the financial system public markets spent a century building: exchanges, custodians, brokers, and ways for ordinary people to buy in. Private markets, now $28T, never had the equivalent. AngelList is building it.
The last decade of structural innovation in venture happened here: syndicates, SPVs at scale, Rolling Funds, scout programs. Today we have $200B+ in assets and 30,000+ startups funded on our platform. The rest of private markets is next. Funds is the software and services behind private funds, Nova is the banking network, Meridian is the wealth platform for accredited investors, and USVC is the brand behind a registered fund that lets anyone invest in venture.
Working here means an unusual amount of agency on a problem that matters. Titles are closer to suggestions, and there are about 200 of us building what private markets never had. Come build it with us.
About the Role
AngelList is hiring a Legal Counsel to own ordinary-course corporate work and help resolve the legal questions that arise across our Funds business. You’ll handle commercial contract reviews, board consents, and equity grants while joining the legal team’s reactive rotation - spanning investor consents, side letters, portfolio-company issues, secondary transactions, and regulatory questions. This role combines recurring corporate responsibilities with matters that require a fresh assessment of the facts and a clear position on risk.
This is a hands-on role. You’ll work closely with teams across AngelList including Product, Engineering, Fund Operations, Finance, Tax, Compliance, and Customer Success;, both to resolve individual matters and improve the systems and processes that created them. You should enjoy both resolving today’s challenges and making tomorrow’s easier to handle.
