Intro description:

Legalist is an institutional alternative asset management firm. Founded in 2016 and incubated at Y Combinator, the firm uses data-driven technology to invest in credit assets at scale. We are always looking for talented people to join our team.

We're hiring a Portfolio Counsel to lead monitoring of our growing portfolio of litigation finance investments. You’ll be joining a growing team of engineers, lawyers, and data scientists to make real-time decisions in a fast-paced environment.

In this role, you will own our existing investment portfolio, reporting directly to our Head of Portfolio Monitoring. Our portfolio requires active management by someone able to combine commercial savvy with legal nous.

This is a front-office position for someone looking to apply legal skills to managing a large number of investment positions. This person is comfortable (in addition to monitoring underlying commercial litigation) with analyzing contracts, negotiating with counterparties, and resolving disputes – all with an eye to optimally exiting our investment positions. 

If you are a commercially minded generalist who enjoys hard work and new challenges, this may be the job for you; if you’ve ever answered a question with “I’m not that kind of attorney” – or “I’m just an attorney” – this would probably not be a good fit.

Core responsibilities:
  • Serve as primary contact with our investment counterparties and monitor progress of underlying cases
  • Report investment progress to internal stakeholders and evaluate problem investments for internal and external escalation
  • Work with colleagues on our Finance and Investor Relations teams on quarterly reporting of investment positions

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
