About the team The Legal team sits at the center of some of Shakepay’s most important decisions. We partner closely with Product, Compliance, Operations, Finance, People, and leadership to bring recent products to market, navigate complex regulatory questions and help the business move quickly with confidence. We believe ownership over hierarchy, practical judgment over perfection, and using technology and AI to rethink how legal work gets done.

You’ll work alongside product, compliance and executive leadership to solve novel legal questions at the intersection of crypto, payments and financial regulation.
