About Paxos
Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky — supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.
We’re on a mission to open the world’s financial system to everyone by enabling the instant movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. For over a decade, we’ve built blockchain infrastructure that tokenizes, custodies, trades and settles assets for the world’s leading financial institutions, like PayPal, Venmo, Mastercard and Interactive Brokers.
As a Senior Regulatory Counsel, you’ll get to:
Analyze laws and regulations in the US and foreign jurisdictions to support development of business opportunities in an area of law that is rapidly developing
Create templates, playbooks and other collateral to help Paxos scale internationally
Support maintenance of existing licenses and application processes to obtain new licenses or regulatory approvals
Immerse yourself in blockchain technology, asset tokenization, cryptocurrency for enterprises and investors, our regulation-first approach, and more!
Your experience should include:
A law degree
At least 6 years legal experience, including some experience evaluating and researching financial regulation
Ability to work cross-functionally
Ability to meet tight deadlines
Effective communication with internal stakeholders, clients, and regulators
Very detail-oriented
Ability to be both reactive and help solve problems in the moment as well as proactive, building a longer term roadmap and strategy
You might also have:
Litigation background or training preferred
Government financial regulation or enforcement experience is a plus
Both in-house and law firm experience is a plus
