About this role

LI.FI is seeking a Commercial Counsel to manage the lifecycle of commercial agreements, focusing on API integration and partnerships. This remote role requires legal expertise and offers flexible working conditions.

Description

LI.FI is looking for a Commercial Counsel to own the full lifecycle of their commercial agreements. These agreements are integral to the core API product, shaping distribution, pricing, and usage.

Responsibilities

What you'll do

  • Draft, review, and negotiate the full range of LI.FI's commercial agreements, including API integration agreements, master service agreements, partnership agreements, and term sheets.
  • Review and negotiate vendor and service provider contracts on the procurement side.
  • Manage contract lifecycle from intake through execution, amendment, and renewal, maintaining version control and ensuring executed agreements are properly filed and tracked.
  • Act as the primary legal interface for integration partners and enterprise customers during negotiations, handling multi-round redlines, organising calls with counterparty counsel, and driving deals to close.
  • Work closely with the business development team as the primary legal partner on commercial matters, providing real-time guidance on contractual risk, commercial structuring, and partner onboarding.
  • Assess and allocate risk in commercial terms, including liability caps, indemnification structures, limitation of liability, warranty disclaimers, and governing law/dispute resolution provisions.
  • Develop and maintain LI.FI's standard commercial templates, playbooks, and intake workflows; identify patterns across negotiations, feed improvements back into template language, and build scalable processes.
  • Review and markup counterparty paper and provide clear, commercially pragmatic recommendations to the GC on escalated risk positions.
  • Support regulatory-adjacent commercial work, including the contractual implementation of compliance requirements imposed by regulated integration partners.
  • Coordinate with external counsel on jurisdiction-specific questions that arise during negotiations.
Requirements

What makes a good candidate

  • Qualified lawyer admitted to a recognised bar (preferably US, UK, or an EU member state), comfortable negotiating contracts governed by English or US law.
  • 3+ years PQE with at least 2 years of in-house experience handling commercial contracts.
  • Prior in-house experience in a regulated technology, fintech, or financial services environment is strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrable experience negotiating enterprise SaaS, API, or platform integration agreements.
  • Strong commercial instinct: you understand that legal supports the business, and you're comfortable making risk-based judgement calls.
  • Comfortable operating with minimal supervision in a remote, async-first team.
  • Experience working with counterparties of varying sophistication, from early-stage crypto projects to enterprise financial institutions.
  • Familiarity with the regulatory environment applicable to crypto/DeFi infrastructure is a strong plus but not a prerequisite.
Conditions & Benefits

What you’ll get

  • Annual team offsites (Thailand in 2023, Vietnam in 2024, Marrakech in 2025, Crete in 2026).
  • 30 days of PTO.
  • Flexible remote days.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • Equity participation from day 1.
  • Entitlement to work computer (choice of equipment).
  • An annual 1,000€ personal development budget once you have worked 6+ months.
  • A one-time 1,000€ remote budget to use on coworking, office setup, etc.
