Matrix42 is on an ambitious mission to build the European choice in service-management software, built and operated in Europe and compliant with applicable EU and local regulations. We are now looking for a business-minded Legal Counsel to join our international legal team to support Matrix42 on this ambitious mission.
Your primary responsibilities as the Legal Counsel relate to advising our go-to-market organization in the DACH region and internationally with preparing and reviewing legal documents for software subscription and SaaS contracts.
You will also be in charge of developing and updating our standard legal documents as well as improving our legal processes, including compliance with emerging technology regulation such as GDPR, AI Act, NIS2 and more.

Preparing and reviewing legal documents and quotations, including SaaS contracts, partner contracts, NDAs, Data Processing Agreements, EVB-IT and VOL/A/B contracts

Some professional experience in a similar position, either from an in-house position or from a law firm
A strong business mindset and willingness to learn more about software business

Our Benefits

We could tell you about the free breakfast, the drinks in the fridge, and the 30 vacation days. Or that flexible hours and remote work are part of the deal. But honestly? That’s just standard.
Here’s what makes working with us in Frankfurt extra special:

Work from (almost) anywhere – Take your job with you on a workation and get inspired by new places.
Time for growth – A career framework to support your professional and personal growth with up to 6 extra days off per year for your development.
Social Day – One paid day per year to give back: volunteer, support a cause, or attend an environmental event.
Bike leasing – Stay fit and sustainable. We’ll handle the contract and insurance.
Pick your perk – Choose the benefit that fits your life best: fitness membership, public transport pass, retirement plan, or a monthly bonus.
Dog Friendly Office - Bring your furry coworker along. Just make sure they don't steal anyone’s lunch.

Hybrid work is a natural part of how we operate, but we also believe in the power of coming together. That’s why we regularly connect in the office - whenever it makes sense.
And that’s just the beginning. Ask us what else is waiting for you.
