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