Tools for Humanity (TFH), the company behind World, is seeking an experienced Commercial and Corporate Counsel to join its growing legal team. World is building a real human network designed to accelerate people in the age of AI, using biometric verification (the Orb), World ID, and World App to confirm real humans while preserving privacy. With 17+ million verified users across 160 countries and backing from top-tier investors including a16z and Khosla Ventures, TFH is scaling rapidly. The Commercial and Corporate Counsel will be a key member of the legal team, supporting complex commercial transactions, strategic partnerships, enterprise deals, and high-impact business initiatives critical to company growth. You will partner closely with business development, partnerships, product, operations, and finance teams to structure, negotiate, and execute sophisticated commercial arrangements across diverse products, technologies, and markets. Key responsibilities include: leading the drafting, negotiation, and execution of strategic partnerships, enterprise customer agreements, technology integrations, SaaS agreements, vendor arrangements, and ecosystem partnerships; advising stakeholders on transaction structure, risk allocation, and negotiation strategy; supporting novel deal structures involving emerging technologies, blockchain infrastructure, digital identity systems, and AI; coordinating with subject matter experts across regulatory, privacy, product, IP, employment, security, tax, and corporate functions; and developing templates, playbooks, and scalable contracting processes. You will also support select corporate and strategic transaction matters, including investments, M&A, governance, and structural initiatives where commercial and corporate considerations intersect. The ideal candidate combines strong technical legal training with practical in-house judgment, excellent communication skills, and a highly collaborative approach. You should be equally comfortable leading negotiations, advising business stakeholders, improving contracting processes, and navigating novel or ambiguous transaction structures. The role requires strong commercial judgment, practical problem-solving, and the ability to balance legal protection with operational and business realities in a fast-moving environment.
