Director, Legal Remote; International

Augment is a software infrastructure company building the Robinhood for private markets. We are creating a modern platform that enables investors to access and trade shares in leading pre-IPO companies through a technology-driven experience.

We operate at the intersection of software, brokerage, and private markets. Our platform is designed to make private market investing more accessible, efficient, and technology-native.

We are hiring a Director of Legal to serve as a core deal lawyer within Augment's legal team.

This is not a conventional in-house legal role. Augment is a Series A company, but we already execute complex private market transactions across SPVs, escrow arrangements, fund structures, side letters, brokerage operations, and securities placements. We need a transactional lawyer who can be a true partner to the legal, business development, and operations teams — someone who can structure, negotiate, and close deals while also helping build the legal infrastructure that allows us to scale.

This person will work closely with the Head of Legal and report directly to her. You will own the legal execution of Augment's deal flow end-to-end: drafting and negotiating investment documents, structuring SPV and fund vehicles, managing side letter negotiations, and ensuring that each transaction closes cleanly and on terms that protect the company and its investors. You should be comfortable moving between high-level deal strategy and very detailed document work — one hour negotiating investor protections like distribution mechanics, redemption rights, and expense caps, and the next hour reviewing subscription documents, escrow agreements, or regulatory filings.

This is a hands-on, individual contributor role. You will have support from outside counsel and internal team members, but you should expect to personally drive the most important transactional and structuring work yourself.
