Assistant Manager - Legal

Assistant Manager / Manager – Legal Location: Mumbai (In-office)

At IDfy, trust is the product - and every client relationship, vendor deal, and new market we enter rests on contracts that hold up. As our Assistant Manager / Manager – Legal, you’ll own that backbone: turning commercial intent into airtight agreements, keeping IDfy compliant as it scales across India, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, and being the counsel the business leans on to move fast without breaking things. If you love contracting, technology law, and data privacy - and want your work to power real deals - this role is built for you.

We’re The Perfect Match If You

• Bring 2–4 years of post-qualification experience in commercial and technology law - in-house experience preferred (ideally with a TMT practice).
• Hold an LL.B / LL.M from a top-tier institution.
• Have real depth in commercial contracting - you’ve vetted, drafted, and negotiated MSAs, NDAs, SaaS agreements, and EULAs, and you know where the risk hides.
• Know your way around technology law, data privacy, and TMT (technology, media & telecommunications).
• Negotiate and interpret with confidence, and communicate clearly with everyone from Sales to the DPO to external counsel.
• Lead with contracting and advisory.
• Are ready to be in the room - this is a fully in-office role in Mumbai, and you’re either based here or ready to relocate.

Here’s What Your Day Would Look Like

• Own all legal documentation with clients, vendors, and any third parties on behalf of IDfy.
• Run the entire contract/legal lifecycle end-to-end and own the Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) tool, making it the single source of truth across the org.
• Advise on contract status, legal risks, and liabilities across transactions - and make sure every contract is executed within a reasonable TAT.
• Coordinate legal compliance for company-wide contracts, working closely with external legal counsel wherever needed.
• Devise risk-mitigation strategies for doing business in India and globally, and build internal legal policies and playbooks.
• Advise on data privacy and cybersecurity issues affecting the company globally, partnering with management and the DPO to stay ahead of evolving data-protection laws.
• Advise the business on TMT, technology law, and company law / RBI / SEBI / FEMA matters, keeping IDfy compliant on every front.
• Liaise with internal stakeholders for end-to-end client onboarding and contract management.

Why IDfy At IDfy, we don’t just build products - we build trust infrastructure for the digital economy.

In this role, you’ll sit right where trust meets the business: shaping the agreements and safeguards that make every one of those relationships possible.
