4d • Hybrid

About The Position

Mindspring Ventures is a family office overseeing a portfolio of operating companies and investments.

We are hiring our first in-house attorney. This is a hands-on seat: you will do the recurring legal work yourself, keep every entity compliant and in good standing, and manage outside firms on larger matters.

There is no legal department today. You will build the systems, templates and calendars that make the work repeatable, and you will report directly to the Founder and CEO.

Requirements

• JD and an active bar license in good standing, with the ability to register as in-house counsel in Kansas.
• 6 to 10 years of corporate and securities experience, including at least 3 years at a law firm on emerging company or venture work.
• Hands-on experience running Regulation D offerings end to end: structuring, documents, closing, Form D and blue sky filings.
• Experience cleaning up and maintaining cap tables.
• Strong commercial contract drafting and negotiation skills.
• Comfort being the only lawyer in the building: you set priorities, say no when needed and know when to bring in outside counsel.

Nice To Haves

• Family office, holding company or multi-entity experience.
• Exposure to construction, contractor licensing or multi-state operations.
• SaaS and data privacy experience.
• Fluency with Carta or Pulley, EDGAR and NASAA EFD.

Responsibilities

• Structure and run Regulation D offerings under Rule 506(b) and 506(c), including priced rounds, SAFEs and convertible notes for portfolio companies.
• Draft and negotiate term sheets, private placement memoranda, purchase agreements, investor rights agreements and side letters.
• Run accredited investor verification for 506(c) offerings and Rule 506(d) bad actor diligence.
• Manage general solicitation rules so 506(b) offerings stay compliant.
• File Form D on EDGAR within 15 days of first sale, plus amendments.
• Make state blue sky notice filings in every state where investors reside, including through NASAA EFD.
• Maintain a filing calendar so no deadline depends on memory.
• Own subscription agreement templates and investor questionnaires.
• Manage closings: signatures, funds flow, countersignature and equity issuance.
• Keep investor records organized and diligence-ready.
• Reconcile cap tables against board and member approvals, ledgers and signed documents, and paper any gaps.
• Maintain cap tables on an equity management platform (Carta, Pulley or similar).
• Administer option and profits interest grants, including 409A timing and 83(b) reminders.
• Review, redline and negotiate commercial contracts across the portfolio: vendor and SaaS agreements, NDAs, customer and partner agreements, consulting agreements, leases and real estate documents.
• Build standard templates and a clause playbook so routine agreements move quickly.
• Set signature authority rules and maintain an executed contract repository.
• Keep every entity in good standing: annual reports, registered agents and foreign qualifications in each operating state.
• Track state and local contractor licenses, bonds and insurance requirements across a multi-state footprint.
• Own customer-facing legal terms for our software business: terms of service, privacy policy, data processing terms, and marketing consent rules (TCPA, CAN-SPAM).
• Maintain corporate records: minutes, written consents, operating agreements, and officer and manager records.
• Run a single compliance calendar across the portfolio and report status to leadership quarterly.
• Open and maintain bank, brokerage and investment accounts for each entity, including account resolutions, certificates of incumbency and KYC documentation.
• Keep authorized signer lists current across all institutions.
• Set up and maintain regulatory and platform access: EDGAR, state filing portals and the equity management platform.
• Coordinate outside firms on large transactions, specialized regulatory matters, litigation and estate work.
• Provide records, documents and diligence support, and keep leadership informed.
• Inventory every entity, its good-standing status and its governing documents.
• Deliver a reconciled cap table for each company.
• Stand up the compliance calendar and core contract templates.
• Be ready to lead the next private offering.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary.
• Annual bonus tied to clear, measurable goals.
• Long-term incentive.
• Hybrid schedule based in Olathe, Kansas.
• Direct access to the Founder and CEO, and the chance to build the legal function from the ground up.
