The role offers a challenging and exciting opportunity to work on a wide range of legal matters, from licensing deals for our proprietary tech platform ‘Kraken’, to investment M&A transactions as we expand our business across the globe, to working on groundbreaking AI capabilities. No two days are the same at Kraken. We’re looking for another attorney to join our tight-knit team and help support our business across all these areas as we continue to grow at pace.
