Carta

Recognized by Fortune, Forbes, Fast Company, Inc. and Great Places to Work.

The Team You'll Work With

You will be joining our Funds team in the America's under Carta Law. Carta Law is the largest AI-native law firm for private capital, born from the combination of Avantia Law and Carta. Our lawyers and paralegals work alongside embedded AI agents to deliver investor onboarding, transaction KYC, and high-volume legal work with a speed and consistency that traditional law firms simply can't match. As a Junior Paralegal, you will rotate across or specialize within one of three practice areas depending on your strengths and interests.

The Problems You'll Solve

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As a Funds Paralegal, you'll work to:

  • Prepare initial drafts of LP transfer documents (transfer agreements, consents, subscription agreements)

  • Liaise with transfer parties on process and timings, and assist with execution workflows

  • Work closely with lawyers and senior paralegals, contributing to high-quality client delivery across fast-moving, high-volume matters

  • Build commercial and legal expertise over time, with opportunities to take ownership of client accounts and progress towards qualification via the SQE route

About You

We are looking for someone who is:

  • Eager to learn and grow. You are motivated, curious, and excited to develop expertise in legal practice – whether that is compliance, contracts, or funds.

  • Organised and efficient. You prioritize well, manage competing deadlines, and keep matters moving without losing attention to detail.

  • A strong communicator. You write and speak clearly and professionally, understanding that our clients expect crisp, concise advice.

  • A self-starter. You take initiative, work independently when needed, and proactively flag issues before they become problems.

  • A team player. You collaborate effectively with lawyers, senior paralegals, and client-facing teams across a fast-paced environment.

  • An undergraduate Law degree or equivalent is preferred. Prior exposure to LP Transfer processes is a plus but not required.

At Carta, you’re not just an employee. You’re a builder who is creating infrastructure that accelerates innovation and empowers more ownership. Cartans are helpful, relentless, unconventional and kind; representing Carta’s Identity Traits. They work collaboratively and cross functionally to challenge the status quo; working towards a common goal of creating more owners in the private markets.

Salary

Carta’s compensation package includes a market competitive salary, equity for all full time roles, exceptional benefits, and, for applicable roles, commissions plans. Our expected cash compensation (salary + commission if applicable) range for this role is: 

  • $72,485 - $90,640 in Seattle (hourly rate of $34.85 - $43.58)

  • $64,855 - $81,099in New Jersey (hourly rate of $31.18 - $38.99)

  • $76,300 - $95,410 in New York (hourly rate of $36.68 - $45.87)

  • $76,300 - $95,410 in New York (hourly rate of $36.68 - $45.87)

*Annualized salary based on estimated 40 hour hours per week before overtime

We are hiring for multiple levels and locations, so final offers may vary from the amounts listed based on geography, experience and expertise, and other factors.
