Head of Legal

Join a stellar team of leaders and experts in fintech, blockchain, cryptography, infrastructure, and security to build the next generation of core banking systems. We're hiring our Head of Legal to own and drive every legal matter at Dfns. You'll have a broad mandate: commercial contracts, IP and patents, litigation, HR and employment law, and regulatory affairs across every market in which we operate. As the legal leader of the company, you'll build the frameworks, playbooks, and processes that let a fast-growing, global team scale without losing speed or rigor. A core part of this role is regulatory affairs. Dfns operates at the intersection of fintech and digital asset infrastructure, in a landscape that shifts constantly across the EU, US, APAC, and beyond. We expect you to dig into every applicable regulation, understand it deeply, and translate it into clear product requirements, partnering directly with our CPO and product team to turn compliance obligations into product features and competitive advantages when it makes sense. You'll be the bridge between regulators and the product roadmap. This role blends strategic leadership with hands-on execution. You'll report to our CEO and work closely with Sales, Product, Engineering, Security, People, Finance, and the executive team to support our growth internationally.Apply here 👉 Head of Legal
