At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom around the world, and we couldn’t do this without hiring the best people. We’re a group of hard-working overachievers who are deeply focused on building the future of finance and Web3 for our users across the globe, whether they’re trading, storing, staking or using crypto. Know those people who always lead the group project? That’s us. There are a few things we look for across all hires we make at Coinbase, regardless of role or team. First, we look for candidates who will thrive in a culture like ours, where we default to trust, embrace feedback, and disrupt ourselves. Second, we expect all employees to commit to our mission-focused approach to our work. Finally, we seek people who are excited to learn about and live crypto, because those are the folks who enjoy the intense moments in our sprint and recharge work culture.

You can pivot on the fly. Crypto is constantly evolving, so our priorities do, too. What you worked on last month may not be what you work on today, and that excites you. You’re not looking for a boring job.
You have a “can do” attitude. Our teams create high-quality work on quick timelines. Owning a problem doesn’t scare you, but rather empowers you to take 100% responsibility for achieving our mission.
You want to be part of a winning team. We’re stronger together, and you’re a person who embraces being pushed out of your comfort zone.

You collaborate and build trust-based relationships across stakeholder groups.
You are an expert in simplifying complex legal concepts to the business.
Above all, you’re proactive, positive, and inspired by Knix and our mission!
The Opportunity
Act as a strategic partner and advisor to the Knix leadership team. Lead legal projects and drive legal and compliance initiatives.
Provide proactive planning and strategic advice to the business on regulatory issues impacting the business.
Support management decisions with robust risk assessments and ensure senior management is aware of legal trends and developments as well as risk exposure.
Provide advice and guidance on corporate governance matters.
Develop internal guidelines, policies and procedures for managing legal and compliance risks.
Manage various types of litigation that may arise with the assistance of external counsel.
Coordinate external legal counsel reviews as required.
Oversee contract negotiations and renewals.
Provide training and education to the Knix team on legal, regulatory, and compliance issues impacting the business.
Manage the legal budget including external counsel and strategic initiatives.
Collaborate with Essity to provide globally aligned legal advice.
Qualifications
Minimum of 6-10 years direct experience in the legal practice of commercial, marketing, or consumer products law, with increasing responsibility and team management.
In-house experience is an asset.
Understanding of core Canadian commercial best practices and appreciation for the key areas of legal difference across Canada and the United States.
Experience managing compliance-related obligations is a benefit, including implementing and overseeing internal controls to ensure compliance with state/provincial, federal or international regulations or laws.
Experience building and maintaining a new function or program is preferred.
Strong relationship-building, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.
Proven ability to successfully multitask, remain responsive and agile to changes in business priorities, and to deliver pragmatic, risk-based recommendations to the business.
Demonstrated ability to work and manage time spent on projects independently and with little supervision while performing duties.
Experience guiding teams in implementing legal or compliance projects.
Experience implementing and using legal department technology is a benefit.
