Legal Counsel (IP & Digital Platforms)

Join Our Vision: We are building the next generation of Spatial Media - a new way people experience videos through interaction, multi-user presence, haptics, AI, and immersive storytelling.

DeoVR is the leading immersive streaming technology serving multiple enterprise customers and millions of users globally.

We are now expanding the boundaries of what video can be - moving from passive watching to active, interactive, multi-user journeys.

If this excites you more than it scares you, you are in the right place.

The Role

As Legal Counsel, you will own legal matters end-to-end—moving issues from question to resolution. You will collaborate directly with product, engineering, commercial, and marketing teams to turn legal requirements into workable agreements, product decisions, and operational processes.

What You Will Do

• Contract & IP Management: Draft, negotiate, and maintain commercial agreements, licensing, creator/performer releases, terms of service, and trademark/copyright protections.

• Product & Business Support: Partner with internal teams to help launch products, structure partnerships, and resolve disputes involving our platforms and technology.

• Compliance & Trust & Safety: Address content complaints, privacy requests, consent requirements, age assurance questions, and payment provider compliance.

• External Counsel Coordination: Direct specialist external lawyers by providing clear context, framing precise questions, and executing recommendations.

• Legal Operations & Scalability: Build standardized templates, clear escalation workflows, and a legal knowledge base to streamline recurring work.
  

What We Are Looking For

• Qualifications & Background: A legal qualification with proven experience handling commercial legal matters.

• Core Legal Expertise: Solid working knowledge of copyright, IP, commercial contracts, technology, privacy, and platform compliance.

• Communication & Judgment: Strong drafting and negotiation skills in English; ability to distinguish strict legal requirements from commercial trade-offs.

• Working Style: A proactive, curious investigator who communicates directly, takes initiative, and thrives in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.

• Regulatory & Rights Management: Familiarity with high-compliance digital content, user consent protocols, age assurance, and copyright managements.
  

Bonus Points

• Experience with digital platforms, creator businesses, AI, VR, international operations, or high-compliance streaming media would be valuable.

• A strong generalist mindset capable of bridging diverse operational areas and calling in specialist input when needed.
