Legal Counsel

This is Masterschool's sole in-house legal position — a high-ownership, high-impact role at the center of everything we build and sign. You'll be the legal backbone of a fast-moving company: owning our commercial contracts end-to-end, supporting M&A and strategic transactions, managing equity and options programs, advising the board, and keeping the company compliant across jurisdictions.

We're not looking for a traditional in-house lawyer who gates decisions — we're looking for a legal operator who moves fast, thinks like a business partner, and gets deals done.

What you'll do

• Support M&A activity and strategic transactions: structuring, due diligence, negotiation, and closing
• Own and manage all commercial contracts — MSAs, vendor agreements, partnership deals, student-facing terms — from first draft to signature
• Build and run the company's compliance framework across relevant jurisdictions (US, Israel, and others as we grow)
• Serve as legal counsel to the Board: prepare board resolutions, maintain corporate governance records, and advise on board-level decisions
• Manage the company's equity program — option grants, vesting schedules, board approvals, and cap table accuracy
• Work cross-functionally with Finance, People, Product, and leadership to surface legal risk early and enable fast, informed decisions
• Manage and coordinate external counsel where needed — efficiently and cost-consciously

What we're looking for

• Business-first mindset — including 2+ years in a business-financial-legal role
• Operative, product-minded approach with strong contracts foundation
• M&A and transactions exposure
• Analytical and financial orientation
• Native English and Hebrew speaker
• Israeli / US Bar license — an advantage
