株式会社Spider LabsのStrategic Legal & Governance Specialistの求人

Company Profile
Spider Labs (Spider AF) is a global marketing fraud prevention SaaS startup with the mission to "Safeguard the Digital Business Ecosystem." With offices in Tokyo (HQ), Lisbon, Cork, and New York, we are evolving from digital ad fraud prevention into the next-generation Agent Trust Infrastructure.

About the Role
Spider Labs is experiencing rapid growth as a SaaS company providing fraud prevention AI. Along with this growth, the importance of "governance to drive the business forward safely and at maximum speed"—covering contracts/transactions, data privacy, and regulatory compliance associated with AI feature expansion—is increasing rapidly.

In this position, you will cross-functionally handle first-line contract and transaction reviews, privacy/compliance operations, AI governance, and even requirement definition for our stock option (SO) programs. We expect you to bring these multiple areas together from a "business enablement" perspective, handling not only daily decision-making but also designing the workflows and operations (systematization) to make them highly efficient.

Why This Role is Exciting
Cross-functional impact beyond contracts: You will handle areas close to management and business decision-making, including transaction terms, data privacy, IP, AI governance, and SO program support.

High autonomy to design from scratch: Rather than just operating existing frameworks, you will be deeply involved in high-level system design—building outsourcing processes and approval flows from the ground up.

AI-First Environment: As a company providing fraud prevention AI, you can fully leverage generative AI and other cutting-edge tools to manage a wide range of responsibilities efficiently within a small team.

Bilingual & Global Experience: You will gain global-standard practical experience by collaborating with both domestic and international external legal counsels.

Employment Terms & Benefits
Employment Type: Full-time (3-month probationary period)

Working Hours: Full-time (5 days a week)

Location: Hybrid/Mainly Remote (Expected to work from the office approx. 40% of the time, or about 2 days a week; remote work available for the remaining days)

Selection Process: Document screening ➔ Interview ➔ Practical assessment (if necessary)

About the Team & Structure
Strategies and policies are determined by the Head of Administration. In this position, you will be responsible for execution, operation, maintenance, and day-to-day first-line decisions within that scope. For complex issues where judgment is difficult, you will collaborate with the internal lead, external legal counsels, and specialists, meaning you won't have to carry the burden alone.

• Someone who views governance not as a bottleneck, but as a driving force to move the business forward safely and quickly.
• Someone who can proactively propose and implement improvements for undefined or disorganized workflows.
• Someone who can meticulously and consistently handle detailed verification tasks and document management.
• Someone who clearly defines their scope of responsibility and can effectively involve external legal counsels and internal team members.
• Someone who is eager to hand over routine tasks by automating them or delegating to other resources (BPO, AI tools, etc.).
• Someone who can research, organize, and create a solid first draft even in areas where there is no clear-cut answer.

• Ability to review contracts and transaction documents end-to-end.
• Ability to identify key issues (transaction terms, data privacy, IP, etc.) and make sound business judgments.
• Business-level English (capable of reading/understanding English contracts and communicating with internal/external stakeholders in English).
• Excellent communication skills to collaborate smoothly with internal/external stakeholders and explain complex points clearly.
• High attention to detail, with the ability to advance tasks accurately, steadily, and without oversight.
• Comfortable working with Slack, Notion, Google Workspace, and various SaaS tools.

• You do not need to have a career focused solely on legal affairs. We highly welcome candidates with a track record of managing multi-task environments in business planning, corporate planning, operations, or back-office roles.

• Practical experience in multiple areas such as business planning, corporate planning, finance, procurement, or project management.
• Basic understanding and practical experience in data privacy (Act on the Protection of Personal Information, GDPR, APPI, etc.) and intellectual property.
• Hands-on experience in contract and transaction-related operations in IT, SaaS, or startup environments.
• Experience reviewing NDAs, service agreements, terms of use, and personal data-related documents (both Japanese and English).
• Experience in setting up contract ledgers, workflows, FAQs, SOPs, or designing business processes.
• Experience using generative AI on a daily basis to audit, automate, and systematize workflows.
