We built the Aave Protocol, now the world’s largest and most trusted onchain lending market, connecting decentralized finance with individuals, traditional finance, and fintech.
 
Today, we build trusted, high-quality products that expand access to lending, credit, and savings globally
 
Our culture
 
We build trusted products that help people access and discover economic opportunities.
 
We hold a high bar for quality and craftsmanship. No detail is too small. Trust depends on it.
 
We’re a global team building products people can actually use, turning complex technology into something simple and reliable.
 
We stay aligned, move quickly, and think long term, while keeping teams lean and focused on impact.

This role is well suited to someone with a strong corporate and commercial foundation who can navigate complex transactions, understand the commercial objectives behind them and provide practical, business-oriented legal advice in a fast-moving environment.
