Paralegal Contractor

Kelvin Inc

13d • $2,500 - $4,000 • Remote

About The Position

Kelvin is a Series B, fast-moving technology company, and our legal team is looking for a part-time paralegal to support our internal legal operations. This isn't a caseload-driven role; it's ongoing legal support: keeping our contract templates and playbooks current, reviewing incoming NDAs and other legal documents, and helping keep our legal files and internal policies organized and up to date. Like everyone here, you may be expected to work cross-functionally rather than staying inside a narrowly defined legal lane. Kelvin builds software that lets industrial operations, in mining, energy, manufacturing, and other continuous-process industries, act on their own real-time data through the control systems they already run, with guardrails and human oversight built in.

Requirements

• 3+ years of paralegal experience, ideally in a corporate/in-house or transactional setting rather than litigation.
• Prior experience working at or with a B2B SaaS/technology company, comfortable operating in a fast-moving, cloud-based environment.
• Hands-on experience reviewing and redlining NDAs and other commercial contracts.
• Strong organizational skills: comfortable building and maintaining templates, playbooks, and a clean filing system.
• Clear, precise written communication and careful attention to detail.
• Able to work independently, prioritize a variable workload, and turn around requests reliably without daily oversight.
• Proactive and comfortable working cross-functionally: you'll partner closely with sales and tech, and should feel empowered to reach out directly to those teams when something comes up rather than waiting to be told.
• Professional experience with efficient and effective AI tool use in daily workflow (e.g., Claude) to speed up drafting, review, and research.
• Very strong contract and document-management tool experience (e.g., Word/Google Docs redlining, shared drives, DocuSign).

Nice To Haves

• Availability to occasionally help with time-sensitive matters from our Australian office is a nice-to-have, not a requirement.
• Paralegal certificate or equivalent practical experience a bonus.
• Experience with large industrial customers is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Review and update Kelvin's contract templates to keep them accurate, consistent, and aligned with current legal and business requirements and changes.
• Create and maintain playbooks that document how common contract types and clauses should be negotiated and reviewed and keep track of commercial decisions from leadership.
• Review NDAs, MSAs, and other incoming legal documents from clients and prospective partners, including running redline comparisons between versions and flagging deviations from Kelvin's standard positions.
• Clean up and organize internal legal files and folders so documents are easy to find and version control stays clear.
• Review and help update internal policies, ensuring they're current and consistently formatted.
• Take on related ad hoc legal-administrative requests as they come up during the engagement.
