In-House Counsel

We're hiring contract in-house counsel for Remoat Teams.

You'll be the careful reader of the agreements we sign (vendor and commercial paper, DPAs, and contractor arrangements for a fully remote, high-volume workforce). You'll help us stay compliant as we scale.

What you'll do

• Review vendor and commercial agreements on an ongoing basis. Careful, complete reads before we sign
• Ensure vendor paper has alignment and compliant DPA / data-processing records; partner on DPA and related contract compliance so we stay compliant
• Advise on employee vs independent contractor / contract-for-service risk for our remote contractor workforce (Singapore law and other jurisdictions we engage into, as needed)
• Draft, review, and redline contractor and commercial agreements (plain English, risk flagged with evidence)
• Advise ops and leadership before contracts go out, not after the damage
• Escalate real exposure (formal opinions, litigation, novel multi-country issues) to outside counsel and manage that handoff cleanly

Must-haves

• Practicing lawyer, licensed to practice in Singapore
• Savvy with Singapore law
• Real experience with commercial agreement and vendor-paper review
• Comfortable with independent contractor / contract-for-service vs employment classification issues in remote workforce models
• Proven diligence reviewing agreements end-to-end. Catches gaps, inconsistent terms, and silent risk before signature
• Clear written English; can work with remote ops, finance, and product
• Judgment on when something is a business call vs when it needs outside counsel

Nice-to-haves

• Hands-on DPA / data-processing agreement review
• Experience with high-volume contractor or BPO/RPO-adjacent workforce models
• Startup or growth-stage counsel experience
• Vendor paper negotiation at pace
• Familiarity with other ASEAN or remote-hire jurisdictions we engage into

Location: Based in Singapore or Malaysia.
