As Senior Legal Counsel, you’ll serve as a trusted partner to the General Counsel and act as embedded legal support for Thesis’ portfolio companies.

You combine technical fluency in smart contracts and decentralized systems with deep regulatory insight and a pragmatic, solution-oriented mindset. Company Website: thesis.co
