Corporate Associate - ECVC
Scale LLPUnited States$160k – $180kPosted 21 March 2026
Job Description
Scale LLP, a national, fully distributed law firm, is inviting experienced attorneys to join its growing national practice. We are a firm built for high-performing attorneys who want the freedom to shape and grow their practices without the bureaucracy and overhead of traditional Big Law.
Who We Are Founded by former tech GCs, Scale was created to rethink the traditional law firm model - removing inefficiency and outdated economics while preserving what matters most: exceptional legal work, sophisticated clients, and professional credibility. Our mission? Build the best remote law firm in the country . Scale's attorneys work for a variety of clients - from emerging ventures to mature enterprises and public companies - across Corporate, Intellectual Property, and Litigation practice groups.
The Opportunity As a Corporate Securities Associate, you will report to Corporate Practice Group Partners and will support our clients on a range of matters including entity formation (C-corp / S-corp / LLC), corporate finance transactions (SAFEs, convertible debt, and preferred equity), drafting shareholder agreements and LLC operating agreements, taking board minutes and drafting resolutions, administering stock option plans, managing cap tables, and preparing federal and blue sky securities filings.
Experience with mergers and acquisitions (due diligence support, drafting and reviewing stock purchase, asset purchase, and merger agreements), joint venture transactions, public company reporting, and commercial contracts is desirable. As a Scale Associate, you will have the opportunity to work directly with world class attorneys who have practiced both in-house as Public Company GCs and in BigLaw, domestically and internationally. This role offers the opportunity for substantial client contact and professional growth and mentoring through exposure to a wide variety of deals. Our remote-first model allows our Scale associates to practice law from the comfort of their home with the expectation that they will be fully engaged and available during normal business hours. Scale’s best-in-class practitioners share a desire to provide practical, valuable, and timely service to their clients, and we expect the same from our associates.
Compensation Opportunities Scale operates on a non-traditional business model; while this position comes with a full-time engagement expectation, we are a fully remote firm with no offices. Associates take home a base salary, and are eligible for production bonuses starting at 1,250 billed hours annually. Associates are also eligible for origination payouts on matters that they bring to the firm. The firm also contributes to health insurance premiums for plans elected through Scale.
Base Salary: $160,000 - $180,000 based on experience
Quarterly bonuses tied directly to clear, objective success metrics
Full benefits package and the flexibility of Scale LLP’s distributed law firm model
We emphasize the importance of community within our remote-first structure. Attorneys are afforded many different opportunities - both virtual and in-person - for connection, mentoring, best practice sharing and client development.
Requirements
All applicants must have at least 3-5 years of experience working with corporate clients at a top-tier law firm.
Our ideal candidate will have meaningful experience with venture financing transactions and general corporate matters for emerging companies of all stages.
Do you have working knowledge of securities issuances, transfers and repurchases including compliance with federal and state securities compliance? You are a great fit. Can you draft an asset purchase agreement?? Even better!
A successful Scale candidate will also be enthusiastic about expanding their skills to meet a variety of needs across the practice group and demonstrate initiative, availability, and eagerness to thrive in a distributed environment.
