As a comprehensive solution for all digital asset strategies from start to scale, FalconX operates as the connective tissue empowering clients with seamless navigation through the ever-

About the role

FalconX is a digital asset prime brokerage serving institutional clients across multiple jurisdictions. Our legal function supports trading documentation, regulatory obligations, licensing, entity governance and corporate matters.

We’re hiring an Senior Associate, Legal Operations to make our Legal department an AI-native function. You’ll build AI and automation into real legal matters, strengthen the knowledge and processes behind them, and automate the repetitive work that today consumes counsel time.

You'll start with a legal AI platform already live on matters, agentic development tools, and a team committed to deep AI implementation. You’ll own projects from discovery through implementation and adoption. The goal: enable faster delivery, reduce repetitive work, improve service quality and give counsel more time for legal judgment then expanding the use case into other areas of the firm.

What you will do

AI-native legal delivery

• Redesign how legal work gets done. Eliminate unnecessary steps, build counsel-approved self-service paths and clarify ownership across teams. Prioritize improvements by impact, risk and effort.

• Build and deploy AI workflows for drafting, playbook-based review, regulatory research and regulator correspondence, all in partnership with counsel.

• Select additional tools where needed. Work with IT, Security and vendors on integrations and technical dependencies

• Own rollout and adoption. Test with users, train teams, document workflows and improve what you ship

• Establish evaluation, confidentiality, access controls and human-review standards with counsel and Security

• Measure turnaround times, manual effort, errors, adoption and user experience. Use results to prioritize improvements

Legal knowledge as infrastructure

• Structure contracts, entity data, obligations, templates, playbooks and precedents for reliable search and AI use

• Establish ownership and maintenance processes to keep legal information accurate, current and appropriately accessible

• Make obligations, deadlines and entity information easy for Legal and authorized business teams to find and act on

Operating backbone

• Run intake, triage and routing so every request has a clear owner, status and path to resolution

• Own outside counsel management, the entity filings calendar, and signature and execution workflows

• Track repetitive work, remove unnecessary steps and automate routine tasks while keeping operations dependable

Who you are

• A builder with legal judgment. You’ve shipped AI or automation into a legal or adjacent function and can show what you built, how you drove adoption and what improved

• Hands-on with technology. You configure platforms, work with APIs and light scripting, and build practical solutions with the resources available

• Fluent in legal workflows. You understand where AI adds value, where human review matters and when counsel must be involved

• An effective
