Full-stack Python/Django developer

TL;DR: Be the Strategy & Operations team's deployable problem solver for Lovable's highest-priority strategic challenges. You'll work directly with the Head of Strategy & Operations, with regular exposure to the CEO and the entire leadership team, as one of the first hires into Lovable's Strategic Operations function. You'll deploy into critical gaps that don't yet have a clear owner, execute end-to-end, and leave behind a process or function that runs without you. Examples include international market entry, operationalizing strategic partnerships, and standing up new internal capabilities. This is an individual contributor position. Why Lovable? Lovable lets anyone and everyone build software with any language. From solopreneurs to Fortune 100 teams, millions of people use Lovable to transform raw ideas into real products - fast. We are at the forefront of a foundational shift in software creation, which means you have an unprecedented opportunity to change the way the digital world works. Lovable-built applications and websites are visited hundreds of millions of times a month, and our enterprise footprint is compounding fast. And we're just getting started. We're a small, talent-dense team building a generation-defining company from Stockholm. We value extreme ownership, high velocity, and low-ego collaboration. We seek out people who care deeply, ship fast, and are eager to make a dent in the world. What we're looking for Business generalist with range: You've done multiple tours across different functions — strategy, ops, finance, partnerships, go-to-market — and have the judgment to know what "good" looks like in each. You context-switch effortlessly and bring structure to ambiguity. Pragmatic executor, not a politician: You are liked and respected across an organization but not afraid to break glass when needed. You challenge every assumption, ship fast, and don't stack suboptimal decisions. You'd rather deliver an outcome than present a deck about one. Technical and data-driven: Strong analytical skills. Comfortable with data (SQL, BI tools, or equivalent). You use AI tools and agents to automate work and move faster. Preference for technical degrees or deep technical exposure. High-slope learner: You learn faster than anyone around you, take ownership immediately, and thrive in low-structure environments. You go from 0→1 and then 1→10. Experience: Seven or more years of broad-ranging experience. Likely includes a foundation in management consulting (MBB) or banking/PE, but not a prerequisite. What matters is structured thinking, executive presence, and a track record of outsized results. Startup or high-growth experience is a strong plus. What you'll do Own special projects end-to-end: When the executive team or the Head of Strategy & Operations identifies a critical gap or opportunity — entering a new international market, standing up a new function, launching a cross-functional initiative — you take full ownership of getting it done. You scope it with the team, execute it, hire the permanent leader if needed, and move on to the next one. Help build the Strategic Operations function: As the team grows, recruit and develop the generalists who make this a rapid-deployment capability for Lovable's most important priorities. Use AI and automation to help build an operating model that's as fast and AI-native as the product itself. About your application Please submit your application in English.

TL;DR Lovable is growing at terminal velocity. We need a Corporate Counsel who is as comfortable negotiating a term sheet as they are reviewing a stock option plan or cleaning up cap table mechanics the week before a fundraise closes. This role sits at the heart of Lovable’s legal function - owning equity, corporate transactions, and governance, while acting as the connective tissue between our Commercial and Product counsel teams. If you thrive in the space where company-building meets legal infrastructure, this is your role. Why Lovable Change the world, literally: 2026 is the year AI works. Lovable is building the most powerful AI software-creation platform. Work with exceptional people: We’re assembling one of the world’s strongest teams. You’ll work alongside founders, board members, and investors on the transactions that define the company’s trajectory. Legal as a growth lever: At Lovable, legal is not “back office.” You will be a direct driver of our ability to raise capital, close strategic transactions, and maintain the governance hygiene that keeps institutional investors confident. Top-of-market comp: Cash + equity. We pay above market for impact, not pedigree. Global stage: We are a top AI brand. You’ll navigate the structural and regulatory complexities of a dual-listed, multi-jurisdiction technology company growing across the US, EU, and beyond. What we're looking for Relevant Experience: 4–8 years of legal experience, with a meaningful blend of law firm (ideally corporate/securities at a top-tier firm) and in-house tenure at a high-growth technology company (Series B–D preferred). You have seen at least one full fundraise cycle and have hands-on experience with equity documentation. Equity & Cap Table Fluency: You can draft and negotiate term sheets, stockholder agreements, and voting agreements in your sleep. You understand dilution mechanics, liquidation preferences, anti-dilution provisions, and pro-rata rights—not just conceptually, but operationally. You’ve managed a cap table and know what “getting it wrong” costs. Corporate Transactions Ownership: You are comfortable owning the legal workstream on venture financings, strategic investments, and early-stage M&A or acqui-hire transactions. You don’t need a partner looking over your shoulder to get a deal to close. Governance Architect: You understand what good corporate hygiene looks like—board consents, 409A valuations, option pool management, state filings, and subsidiary structuring. You know that governance done poorly becomes a fundraising liability. Gap-Filler Mentality: You thrive in the white space. When a deal or a situation doesn’t fit neatly into Commercial or Product’s lane—employment equity, a strategic partnership with a VC-backed company, a cross-border corporate restructuring—you pick it up and run. Automation First: You have a “developer mindset.” If you’ve drafted the same consent or SAFE agreement three times, you build a template, a playbook, or a self-service workflow. You likely use AI agents and LLMs daily to accelerate your own output. Pragmatic Risk Tolerance: Lovable moves fast. You are comfortable giving a clear, defensible recommendation with 70% of the information—and you know when to escalate vs. when to just decide. Bias for Action: You’d rather close the loop on a signature block over Slack than wait a week for a formal process. What you'll do Own the Equity Stack: Manage all equity-related legal work end-to-end—option grants, RSU plans, secondary transactions, employee liquidity programs, and 409A coordination. You are the single point of accountability when a new hire asks “how does my equity work?” and when a lead investor asks about our fully diluted cap table. Lead Corporate Transactions: Drive the legal workstream on venture financings (priced rounds, SAFEs, convertible notes), strategic investments, and any M&A activity. Coordinate with external counsel where needed but own the process, timeline, and output. Build & Maintain Corporate Infrastructure: Keep our corporate house in order across all entities—board and stockholder consents, annual filings, subsidiary governance, and cross-border structural hygiene. Make sure we are always investor-ready, not just at close. Be the Connective Tissue: Work alongside our Commercial and Product counsel to handle matters that fall between their mandates—co-branded partnership structures, equity-linked commercial arrangements, employee IP assignments, and any situation that requires a generalist’s judgment. Automate the Routine: Use Lovable and AI tooling to build self-service infrastructure for standard corporate tasks—option grant workflows, consent templates, entity management trackers—so that the legal team scales without headcount growing linearly. Scale Prep: Build the governance documentation and compliance hygiene now that makes our next fundraise, a dual-listing, or an acquisition clean and fast. Think: data room-ready at all times. The challenge This isn’t a role for someone who wants to specialize narrowly or hand off anything that looks unfamiliar. You’ll be the person that founders, the CFO, and the board rely on when the stakes are high and the clock is ticking—whether that’s a term sheet that just landed, an employee equity dispute, or a structural question that doesn’t have a precedent inside the company. You will also help shape how Lovable’s legal function grows as we scale. Ready to be the legal backbone of the most exciting AI company in the world?
