What the job involves
- We’re seeking a motivated legal intern for the Summer 2026 to join Duetti’s Legal Department
- This internship offers a firsthand legal experience at the intersection of law, music, and technology within a fast-paced startup environment. Interns will engage in the drafting of purchase agreements for music assets, legal research and due diligence relating to distribution, licensing, and financing agreements, and will have the opportunity to interface with industry stakeholders and opposing counsel
- Aid and support the Legal Department in day-to-day legal tasks
- Review and prepare memos on distribution, license, publishing, and related agreements
- Support legal research on topics related to music rights, international copyright and music rights, compliance, and other similar topics

- Participate in weekly team meetings and contribute to project coordination
Our take
The independent music market has been on a steady rise for several years now, but it can still be incredibly difficult for indie artists to monetise their work. Step in Duetti, a company supplying a way for smaller artists to sell their catalogues, individual tracks, or even parts of tracks - an opportunity traditionally reserved for A-list artists.
The idea behind the platform is simple, with Duetti supplying cash payment in return for as many masters as an artist would like to sell. Already serving upwards of 250 artists, and with $200 million awarded in early 2026, it plans to develop its tech infrastructure, market presence and services.
