Intropic is the market standard in index rebalance intelligence — a field growing rapidly as passive investing reshapes global markets, with passive holdings in the US now exceeding active. We are at an inflection point: new AI-enabled products are accelerating our growth and expanding our footprint across capital markets.
We operate at the frontier of a question that will define the next decade of the information economy: how critical data and IP is licensed, valued, and shared. Our work centres on distinguishing raw from derived information and structuring innovative agreements that unlock economic value for all parties. Joining Intropic means becoming an expert in this space early, at a company where it is core to the business rather than a side function.
Our structure is deliberately flat. You will work directly with the founders and the key people across the company from day one.
The Role
Negotiate and draft commercial agreements across the full range: order forms, master/framework agreements, data licensing agreements, and NDAs
Apply and develop negotiation techniques and economic principles to construct mutually beneficial deals
Build and refine contracting playbooks and template agreements using the latest AI tooling and platforms
Enable commercial and sales teams to self-serve on standard agreements by making the playbooks simple and robust
Represent Intropic externally — on calls, in writing, and face to face
You will support Intropic and the General Counsel across negotiations and contracting on both sides of the business — our customers and our data suppliers. This is a commercially minded legal role, not a back-office one.
We run a modern, AI-augmented contracting operation. Robust playbooks and AI tooling handle the majority of agreements as business-as-usual, with the legal team focused on the edge cases: novel, high-risk, or strategically significant deals that don't fit the mould. When you resolve an edge case, you feed the learning back into the playbooks — so the system keeps getting better and your time keeps shifting toward the highest-impact work.
You will:
Your pathway: You will start on the customer side, running our existing contracting playbooks to learn the business and its agreements inside out. As you automate and streamline that work, your focus shifts progressively toward the legal squad — troubleshooting complex negotiations and leading bespoke strategic deals alongside the General Counsel.
