More about this role

Ornn is building the financial infrastructure for AI compute. Our price indices are live on Bloomberg Terminal. We structure and trade compute hedging instruments. And we're now building a platform that brings exchange-grade mechanics like order management, matching, scheduling, and settlement to how compute capacity gets reserved and allocated. We're a lean team in New York, backed by leading venture and strategic investors.

About the Role

Working directly with Ornn's counsel, you would review and mark up MSAs, order forms and service level agreements, track what is outstanding, and keep contracts moving. Most of it is careful, methodical work on standard paper.

This is a role for someone with real legal training who would rather see how commercial contracts work at a company building a new market than review the hundredth version of the same document at a firm.

What You'll Do

Review and redline customer MSAs, order forms and service level agreements against our standard positions.

Prepare first drafts, and turn counsel's comments into clean language.

Track every contract in flight: which version is current, whose turn it is, and how long it has been sitting.
