TYTAN Technologies

At TYTAN , we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale. We protect people. We protect critical infrastructure. We protect European sovereignty.

Now, we are looking for a new team member who is eager to make a real difference. As our Senior Legal Councel, you will be TYTAN’s first in-house legal counsel and a strategic advisor to the leadership team. You will build TYTAN’s legal function from the ground up—balancing risk, compliance, and innovation as we scale across jurisdictions and operational complexity. Your work will directly influence how TYTAN navigates defense regulation, international expansion, contract strategy, and dual-use technologies.

Your roadmap to make an impact

• Establish and lead TYTAN’s legal department, acting as the key advisor on corporate, regulatory, and commercial legal matters.

• Draft, review, and negotiate contracts (e.g., with suppliers, partners, customers, and governments), ensuring TYTAN’s interests are protected.

• Ensure compliance with relevant national and international laws, including dual-use export regulations, defense contracting requirements, and data protection.

• Support entity formation, IP strategy, employment law matters, and internal governance.

• Liaise with external counsel on specialized matters, especially around defense procurement, security clearances, and international operations.

• Develop scalable legal processes and documentation standards across departments.

• Serve as a trusted thought partner to the executive team on strategic risk and compliance.

Who you are

• Qualified lawyer (EU jurisdiction) with 4+ years of legal experience, including significant in-house or startup experience.

• Strong knowledge of commercial and corporate law; exposure to defense, export control, or dual-use regulations is a significant plus.

• Able to structure complex deals and regulatory frameworks into pragmatic, actionable guidance.

• Experienced in managing external legal providers and translating legal advice into business value.

• Highly organized, discreet, and proactive; you thrive in high-stakes environments with evolving priorities.

• Fluent in English; German is a strong advantage.
