Hybrid | Payroll | Reporting to COO | 4/5 or Fulltime
At Optimile, we’re building the future of e-mobility. We are a leading software company specializing in digital solutions for the electric vehicle (EV) charging industry. Our innovative platforms empower Charging Point Operators (CPOs) and Mobility Service Providers (MSPs) to deliver a seamless and efficient EV charging experience. As we continue to grow internationally, we want our legal foundations to be just as strong as our technology.
That’s why we’re looking for a Legal Counsel who will build and own Optimile’s legal framework from the ground up and help us scale fast, while staying fully in control behind the scenes.
This is a unique role for an independent, hands-on legal professional who enjoys building structure in a fast-moving tech environment.
Your Role at Optimile
You will be our first in-house legal expert. You’ll work independently, with room to spar with the COO, collaborate closely with our contract manager and other stakeholders, and rely on external advisors when needed. You will act as the primary legal point of contact toward DKV mobility and coordinate interactions with the internal Legal Group.
