Role
Who you are
- You get it. Completely, instinctively. You’re not here to say no. You’re not here to say yes. You’re here to advise and counsel on what we’re supposed to do
- You see around corners. You’re always one step ahead. You believe there’s a creative legal solution to every problem, and you’re not satisfied until you find it
- You hate mistakes. Missing a typo puts you in a bad mood. But then again, you don’t really make mistakes, so you’re rarely in a bad mood
- You know how to speak ‘business’, ‘product’, and ‘engineering’. You distill complex legal issues into clear, actionable guidance for founders, operators, and anyone else who needs to understand what’s going on
- You’re curious. Genuinely so. You ask questions. You dig. And when you need to be, you’re judgmental in exactly the right way: decisive, discerning, and not afraid to call it
- You’re a strategic builder. You don’t just manage legal, you build it. You see the gaps before anyone else does, and you fill them
- You’re hyper-focused on the details. The kind of person who catches what no one else caught
- You are deeply, fundamentally comfortable with the undefined. Startups aren’t linear, predictable, or the same thing each day. Flex is fast-paced and rapidly evolving, serious ambition behind it. You don’t just survive in that environment, you thrive in it
- 4+ years of corporate legal experience in-house at a startup or at a firm; strong preference for fintech, whether in-house or advisory
- Real deal reps: you’ve worked funding rounds, debt facilities, and/or major commercial partnerships and can speak fluently to all of it. Bonus if you’ve seen multiple deals all the way through
- Experience directing outside counsel. You know how to manage external partners effectively without losing control of the work or the budget
- You’ve built legal infrastructure before, including the processes, playbooks, or systems that didn’t exist before you showed up
- Genuine excitement about Flex’s mission and about being part of building something that actually matters
What the job involves
- I’m looking for a corporate attorney to join my Legal & Compliance team at Flex
- You’re going to be a key member of a small, high-impact team helping one of the most Innovative fintechs get even better. Your mandate is to own our corporate legal function, from NDAs and commercial agreements to funding rounds and M&A. Part builder, part doer, full-time owner
- This role is for the ambitious who want to make a real impact at a company making a real difference for businesses everywhere. We’re an AI-Native Financial Services company, and yes, we’re actually building AI tools for our own legal team
- Negotiate NDAs, MSAs, SaaS contracts, vendor agreements, and the full
- Spectrum of corporate agreements at Flex
- Own corporate governance. Cap table maintenance, board and stockholder
- Resolutions, entity management, and equity plan administration. The
- Unglamorous stuff that keeps the company legally sound and investor-ready
- Be in the room on M&A and strategic transactions, from early diligence through
- Close. You’re not just reviewing documents, you’re helping shape the deal
- Direct and manage outside counsel. You know how to get the most out of
- External partners without losing the thread or the budget
- Build and own the contract process. Put your operational hat on and make life
- Easier for yourself and your colleagues
- Be a key stakeholder in Flex’s funding activities, working alongside outsidecounsel and internal stakeholders to carry deals from term sheet to close,whether that’s an equity round, a debt facility, or a major strategic partnership
- Help build out our AI legal suite. Why buy someone else’s tools when we can build our own and 10x our reach?
- Manage corporate legal functions across HR, Finance, and Ops. We have a hand in all of it, and we work hand-in-hand with our business partners to shape strategy, provide real legal advice, and keep the company moving
- Own Flex's IP posture, protecting our technology, brand, and proprietary assetsso that every deal, partnership, and vendor agreement we sign keeps our crownjewels exactly where they belong: with us
Our take
Flex, formerly known as Flexbase, supplies credit and finance management tools for small and midsize business (SMBs). At the core of its offering is a credit card, with a complimentary platform that collects all finance operations into one easy-to-manage app.
Perhaps the most intriguing part of Flex's approach is the credit card itself, which comes with 0% interest for 60 days. Through this, businesses can enhance their cash flow and be more flexible in investing in growth. Besides this, users can also issue virtual employee cards at no extra cost, and use functions such as receipt capture and free ach/wire payments.
Having steadily grown its offering over the years, Flex has raised significant funding to expand its business and accelerate growth. Demand for its solutions has expanded beyond its initial focus on the construction industry to target clients across logistics, e-commerce, real estate and other sectors. After raising $85 million over two rounds in 2025, Flex has launched a Google Pay partnership and the Visa Infinite Business Credit Card, with enhanced benefits for business owners.
