总法律顾问 / 法律主管 - 美国
General Counsel / Head of Legal - US
Allocator One Group 是一个全球投资平台，重新定义机构资本如何进入私人市场。我们通过两个协同运作的业务开展运营：
- Allocator One 作为主要投资者，支持全球优秀的首次和二次基金经理——实质上充当“种子投资者+平台”角色，为新兴风险投资基金提供支持。
- Infra One 是我们的基金运营和技术部门，为这些新基金提供监管、行政和技术基础设施，使它们能够快速且全球化地扩展。我们已经在英国、美国、奥地利和德国上线并提供服务，并即将在新加坡、印度和卢森堡推出。
我们共同为基金经理提供他们所需的资本和结构，在此过程中构建一个重塑私人市场的全球生态系统，包括平台、人员和理念。
这个职位是我们在建立 Infra One 美国运营平台时招聘的四个基础职位之一。这些职位不是狭窄的、孤立的职能。每个职位都是 Infra One 美国运营系统的架构师——构建监管、运营和财务基础设施，使数十位普通合伙人（GPs）能够自信地扩展。
任务
职位：基金结构与监管外交架构师
你是 Infra One 在美国基金法律、结构和普通合伙人（GP）关系方面的首席顾问。你将起草和优化每个 GP 基金都会使用的法律模板：有限合伙协议（LPA）、私募备忘录（PPM）、子咨询协议和 Reg D 表格申报。更广泛地说，你是总经理（MD）在市场进入、监管定位和交易结构方面的战略合作伙伴——将复杂的美国证券法转化为实际的操作手册。
你不是孤立的法律部门；你是一位了解基金结构如何影响 GP 经济学、 LP 信心以及 Infra One 运营负担的业务顾问。
关键职责
基金结构与文件编制
- 为 Infra One 支持的基金起草和维护 LPA 模板、PPM、Reg D 发行文件和子咨询协议。
- 为 GPs 提供关于特拉华州有限合伙企业（LP）与有限责任公司（LLC）选择、跟投结构、平行基金（美国应税与外国投资者）和接盘结构的建议。
- 审查并协商 Infra One 与每位 GP 子顾问之间的顾问协议；确保适当的委托、监控和责任分配。
- 协调 Reg D 合规：管理 Form D 申报、投资者资格证明文件和发行备忘录交付。
- 监管与合规接口
- 与监管机构沟通，确保符合所有相关法规要求。

Allocator One Group is a global investing platform redefining how institutional capital reaches private markets. We operate through two synergistic businesses:
- Allocator One backs exceptional first- and second-time fund managers around the world as an anchor investor—effectively acting as “seed-investor + platform” for emerging VC funds.
- Infra One, our fund-ops and tech arm, provides the regulatory, administrative, and tech infrastructure that allows those new funds to scale rapidly and globally. We are already live and serving in the UK, US, Austria, Germany and launching Singapore, India and Luxembourg imminently.
Together, we deliver both the capital and the structure fund managers need—and in doing so build a global ecosystem of platforms, people, and ideas that reshape private markets.
This role is one of the four foundational roles that we are hiring for to establish Infra One's US operating platform. These are not narrow, siloed functions. Each role is an architect of the Infra One US operating system—building the regulatory, operational, and financial infrastructure that will enable dozens of GPs to scale with confidence.
Tasks
The Role: Architect of Fund Structuring & Regulatory Diplomacy
You are Infra One's lead advisor on US fund law, structuring, and GP relationships. You will draft and refine the legal templates that every GP fund will use: LPA (Limited Partnership Agreement), PPM (Private Placement Memorandum), Sub-Advisory Agreement, and Reg D form filings. More broadly, you are a strategic partner to the MD on market entry, regulatory positioning, and deal structuring—translating complex US securities law into practical playbooks.
You are not a siloed legal department; you are a business advisor who understands how fund structure affects GP economics, LP confidence, and Infra One's operational burden.
Key Responsibilities
Fund Structuring & Documentation
- Draft and maintain template LPAs, PPMs, Reg D offering documents, and sub-advisory agreements for Infra One-backed funds.
- Advise GPs on Delaware LP vs. LLC choice, co-investment structures, parallel funds (US taxable vs. foreign investors), and feeder structures.
- Review and negotiate advisor agreements between Infra One and each GP sub-adviser; ensure proper delegation, monitoring, and liability allocation.
- Coordinate Reg D compliance: manage Form D filings, investor accreditation documentation, and offering memorandum delivery.
Regulatory & Compliance Interface
- Work closely with the CCO on Form ADV disclosures, material conflicts of interest, and regulatory obligations.
- Draft conflicts of interest policies and disclosure matrices; ensure all material conflicts are documented and communicated.
- Advise on AML/KYC procedures and custody rule compliance.
- Monitor SEC guidance and private fund rules; assess impact on Infra One's platform and update templates as needed.
Operational & Commercial Agreements
- Draft custodial agreements, fund administration service agreements, and audit engagement letters.
- Manage service provider contracts: custodians, auditors, administrators, tax advisors.
- Own Infra One's master service agreement (MSA) with GPs and update it as new operational or regulatory requirements emerge.
GP Diligence & Onboarding
- Conduct legal due diligence on prospective GPs: prior fund documentation, relevant litigation, regulatory history.
- Advise the MD and investment committee on legal risks, GP track record documentation, and any regulatory flags.
- Oversee GP onboarding: final documentation, investor communication, and legal handoffs to operations and compliance.
Strategic Advisory
- Advise the MD on market positioning, competitive fund structure benchmarking, and emerging regulatory trends.
- Participate in investment committee meetings; flag legal and regulatory risks early.
- Build relationships with specialized counsel (external tax lawyers, Delaware counsel, etc.) and manage their engagement.
Requirements
What You Bring
Experience & Expertise
- 10–18 years of experience in investment fund law, private equity structuring, or venture capital law.
- Deep expertise in Delaware limited partnerships, LLCs, and US fund documentation (LPA, PPM, MSAs).
- Strong knowledge of Reg D, Form D filings, accreditation rules, and anti-fraud provisions.
- Exposure to Advisers Act requirements for fund advisers, conflicts of interest disclosures, and custody rules.
- Prior experience advising fund platforms, umbrella structures, or multi-GP environments is a strong plus.
Mindset & Approach
- Business-savvy lawyer: you understand how legal structure affects GP incentives, LP returns, and operational complexity.
- Practical and proportionate: you optimize for clarity and GP adoption, not legal perfection.
- Relationship builder: you can communicate complex legal concepts to non-lawyer stakeholders (GPs, LPs, operations teams).
- Entrepreneurial: you design templates and processes for scale, not bespoke one-off advice.
Nice to Have
- JD from a top 20 law school; bar admission in New York or Delaware.
- Prior in-house counsel experience at a PE firm, fund platform, or venture firm.
- Exposure to European fund regulation (Luxembourg, Ireland) and cross-border structuring.
- CPA or accounting background is a plus.
Benefits
- Location: Remote (preferred US timezone overlap with San Francisco HQ)
- Salary Range: $220,000–$320,000 base + 25% bonus
- Equity: TBD (0.15%–0.35%)
- Reports to: US Platform Head / Managing Director
- Hiring Timeline: Month 1–3
Why This Role Matters
Legal documentation is often the last thing to get right—but for Infra One, it is part of the pitch to GPs. By owning templates and structuring decisions in-house, we move faster, control costs, and maintain operational coherence across the platform.
Why Infra One
- Leverage: Design fund documents once, then deploy across dozens of GPs. Your IP scales exponentially.
- Autonomy: Full ownership of structuring decisions; direct input into platform strategy and competitive positioning.
- Visibility: Reporting directly to the MD; participation in investment decisions and board discussions.
- Strategic impact: Your structuring choices directly affect GP adoption rates, LP confidence, and operational efficiency.
- Equity upside: Early-stage role with meaningful equity; directly tied to platform success.
