AnySignal is developing next-generation RF products and services for space and defense missions. We're hiring our first Contracts Specialist to own day-to-day commercial contracting operations.
You'll be the first point of contact for contracts across the company. Your responsibilities include running contract intake end-to-end (triage, prioritization, driving agreements from draft to signature), drafting and redlining recurring commercial agreements (NDAs, MSAs, statements of work, purchase and supply agreements, vendor and consultant agreements, teaming agreements), and building contract playbooks and templates to handle common terms consistently without legal involvement.
You'll own the contract lifecycle system—maintaining the repository, tracking key dates, renewals, and deliverables, and ensuring obligations don't get missed. You'll support flow-down and compliance requirements on government and prime contractor work, including export control, cybersecurity, and reporting terms. You'll coordinate signature, execution, and records retention, keeping finance and sales aligned on contract status. You'll also support corporate and compliance projects alongside the General Counsel, including entity records, policy administration, insurance, and audit preparation.
You'll work directly with the General Counsel and partner closely with business development, supply chain, production, finance, and engineering. This is a hands-on operating role at a company building real hardware for real missions.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 4+ years in contracts administration, contract management, or paralegal role with substantial commercial contracting responsibility
- Direct experience drafting and redlining commercial agreements independently, with clear judgment about what you can resolve and what needs to escalate
- Comfort operating without a large legal department; you've built or meaningfully improved a process, not just worked inside one
- Strong organizational discipline; you track obligations and deadlines without being reminded
- Clear written communication with non-legal partners in sales, finance, and engineering
- Ability to work onsite in Torrance, CA
- U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, protected individual under 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain necessary authorizations from U.S. Department of State (ITAR compliance)
NICE TO HAVE:
- Paralegal certificate or equivalent formal training
- Experience at a hardware, manufacturing, aerospace, or defense-adjacent company
- Familiarity with government contracting concepts, FAR and DFARS flow-downs, or ITAR and EAR requirements
- Experience implementing or administering a contract lifecycle management platform
- Exposure to procurement, supplier onboarding, or vendor risk review
