The role

Molecule and BIO.xyz are building the foundation of Decentralized Science (DeSci) - where biotech meets web3 to make scientific research community-owned, transparent, and faster to market.

Molecule provides the infrastructure to turn intellectual property (IP) into programmable, on-chain assets through our IP-NFT framework and evolving protocol stack. This enables researchers, patients, and communities to fund and govern biotech projects in new, open ways.

BIO.xyz is the coordination and economic layer of DeSci, powering BioDAOs through funding, governance, and ecosystem alignment.

Together, we are creating a new model for scientific discovery - one where breakthroughs are owned and advanced by the communities that believe in them.

What you'll do

  • Draft, review, and manage corporate documents - shareholder agreements, board resolutions, NDAs, MOUs, term sheets, and governance instruments for DeSci projects

  • Prepare transactional documents for fundraising rounds, token sales, SAFTs, IP licensing agreements, and IP-NFT frameworks

  • Support IP portfolio management: patent prosecution coordination, trademark filings, IP assignment agreements, and research collaboration agreements across US, EU, and international jurisdictions

  • Assist litigation and dispute resolution - pleadings, discovery, deposition summaries, privilege logs, and case chronologies alongside outside counsel

  • Operate and quality-review AI legal tools integrated into Molecule's workflows: LLM-driven drafting, summarization, research, and compliance screening

  • Design structured HITL review protocols so AI-generated work product meets first-tier quality before it reaches the CLO

  • Build and maintain prompt libraries, workflow templates, and SOPs for AI-assisted legal tasks

  • Monitor regulatory developments across SEC, FINMA, MiCA, and Canadian securities regulators affecting DeSci, IP tokenization, and digital assets

  • Support KYC/AML documentation, GDPR and data protection compliance, and regulatory filings

How you'll work

Location: Remote - preferred: Canada, US, UK, EU, or Switzerland

description

You won't just process documents. You will design and run AI-powered legal workflows end-to-end: draft contracts using LLMs, build Human-in-the-Loop review protocols, maintain prompt libraries and SOPs, and continuously raise the bar on what a single paralegal can ship. The AI tools are not a shortcut - they're your operating system, and you own the quality of everything that comes out of them.

Who You Are

  • AI-native. You have real, hands-on experience using LLMs for legal drafting, research, or document analysis - and you've built or operated HITL review workflows, not just heard about them

  • Paralegal-credentialed. Diploma, certificate, or degree from an accredited institution, with 3+ years of experience in corporate, transactional, or litigation matters at a firm or in-house

  • Jurisdictionally versatile. Comfortable working across US, Canadian, Swiss, and EU legal systems - or eager to get there fast

  • Organized under pressure. You manage multiple concurrent matters, deadlines, and stakeholders in a distributed startup without dropping threads

  • Independent and high-ownership. You don't wait to be told what to do next. You take matters end-to-end and escalate when it counts

  • Curious about the mission. Biotech, blockchain, and AI converging in one company either excites you or you wouldn't be reading this
