About the Team:

The Legal team is responsible for all of World's legal affairs globally. We partner cross-company to help advance the blockchain project, improve our products (hardware device, wallet app, and Proof of Personhood), and ensure regulatory compliance in areas such as securities, AML/CFT, consumer protection, litigation, trade, IP, and labor, among others.

About the Opportunity:

This unique role offers the opportunity to shape the on-the-ground expansion strategy in LATAM. Reporting to the Associate General Counsel for Expansion, this position will help the project grow responsibly by assessing threshold risks and requirements associated with entering new cities in Brazil, informing decisions about the prioritization and timing of entry, and monitoring changes in the law to ensure ongoing compliance in those places.

The role pulls together input on a range of local legal considerations, including regulatory, commercial, financial regulations, product, privacy, litigation, labor & employment. Moreover, it is highly cross-functional. This position will partner most closely with our expansion and market operations teams and will also develop close working relationships with our teams responsible for product development, economics, trust & safety, logistics, product, financial compliance, communications, marketing, and government relations. In this role, you will:

  • Develop and lead legal strategy for jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction entry decisions and meeting ongoing support needs, including by proactively solving processes and other problems for the business as they execute an ambitious growth plan

  • Secure and relay advice on threshold risks and requirements for entering new markets, such as financial regulations, data protection, labor & employment, commercial, consumer protection, etc.

  • Manage local counsel in the market to secure clear, actionable input efficiently and cost-effectively

  • Build relationships with key stakeholders who may need to be involved in preparing to roll out in new geographies (product, economics, logistics, communications, government relations, communications, etc.)

  • Collaborate with Legal counterparts focused on product, privacy, compliance, corporate, and financial regulatory to ensure necessary local licenses, permits and registrations are obtained before entering new jurisdictions, and jurisdiction-specific product initiatives are vetted

  • Help ensure we deliver consistent, accurate messaging and materials to key stakeholders, authorities, local courts, and users in general

  • Develop a deep understanding of our strategies around product, economics, trust and safety, corporate matters, policy, and communications, and play a key role in pulling these together to provide practical advice in each jurisdiction

  • Proactively contribute to the Legal team's planning, cohesion, consistency in advice and the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the team

About You:

  • 7+ years of post-law school experience working as an attorney, with solid BigLaw experience and/or fast-paced startups

  • Hands-on and creative problem-solver, who understands on-the-ground complexities and is passionate about building scalable ways to account for them.

  • Must have excellent academic credentials and be a qualified lawyer in good standing with eligibility to practice in LATAM

  • Previous experience supporting multi-jurisdictional legal challenges

  • Experience developing and successfully providing legal support for international growth plans, including assessing regulatory and legal requirements and developing a plan for successful execution

  • Proven track record in licensing efforts and working as part of a cross-functional team to launch new operations, products, and business lines in established and emerging markets internationally in the region

  • Capable of defining an agenda and ensuring it gets done on time and efficiently, along the way demonstrating judgment, practicality, resourcefulness, proactivity, and attention to detail

  • Demonstrated interest in blockchain technology, Web3, cryptocurrency, and digital assets.

  • Extensive experience living, working, traveling, or practicing law internationally and the ability to travel regularly is preferred

  • Fluency in English

  • Positive collaborative attitude, comfort with change and a fast pace, high level of integrity, and intellectual curiosity
