Product Counsel

We’re solving some of the hardest problems in venture capital and private markets. You’ll work with a team that values precision, urgency, and long-term thinking. If you want to shape how startups are funded and built, this is the place.

We exist to accelerate innovation by increasing the number of successful startups in the world. We do this by building the financial infrastructure that makes it easier for more people to invest in world-changing companies.

AngelList is the nexus of venture capital and the startup community. We support $171B+ in assets and have powered investments into over 13,000 startups—over 300 of which are unicorns. Today, 57% of top-tier U.S. VC deals involve investors on AngelList. While our scale is large, our ambition is larger.

If you're excited to build the future of private markets, come build with us.

AngelList is hiring a Product Counsel to sit at the intersection of law, product, and private markets innovation. Legal architecture isn't a constraint here — it's a competitive advantage.

You'll be embedded across product, engineering, and business teams, working on tightly regulated, zero-margin-for-error infrastructure: fund formation, banking infrastructure, investor onboarding, capital calls, and data systems. You'll help shape the regulatory playbook for the next generation of private markets. This role reports directly to the General Counsel of Product.

Most legal teams at financial companies are built to say no. Ours is built to find the yes — and then build the structure that makes it safe, scalable, and replicable. If you're energized by complexity, frustrated by boilerplate, and want your legal work to directly shape products used by thousands of GPs, LPs, and founders, this is the role.

If you don’t meet every requirement above, we still encourage you to apply. We value complementary strengths and operators who learn by doing.

AngelList has offices in a few cities, New York City and San Francisco. We have a hybrid in-office model: teammates come in at least 2 days per week (Tuesdays and either Wednesday or Thursday). Exceptions may be made for exceptional individual contributor candidates in other locations. 

The compensation for this role consists of a competitive base salary, benefits, and equity package. The base salary for this role is 300,000+ annually but actual will vary based on a number of factors including a candidate’s professional background, experience, and location. Full details about our Total Rewards package will be provided during the recruitment process.

We support your life both in and outside of work.

At AngelList, we are united in our purpose to accelerate innovation and build the future of private markets. Our beliefs and values shape what we work on and how we create impact. If the below resonate, we’d love to have you with us.
