About the Role


Arcot Group is hiring a Senior Legal Counsel to lead the complete legal function for a fast-growing, multi-country technology group. This is the senior-most legal role in the organization and will report directly to the CEO.

The role will cover intellectual property, trademarks, patents, commercial contracts, corporate compliance, employment law, partnership structuring, dispute resolution, data protection, governance, and CEO advisory across entities in India, UAE, and the USA.

This is not a narrow specialist role. We are looking for a commercially minded legal leader who can work across multiple legal areas, make practical judgment calls, support fast business decisions, and build a legal function that enables growth while managing risk. The role will be supported by a Junior Legal Counsel / Paralegal, but legal strategy, final review, deal structuring, and senior advisory will sit with this position.


Key Responsibilities

Intellectual Property & Brand Protection

  • Manage the Group’s IP portfolio across multiple brands, software products, and jurisdictions.
  • Conduct trademark audits and manage trademark filings, renewals, registers, and enforcement across India, UAE, and the USA.
  • Identify patentable software / AI innovations and work with engineering and product teams to document them in patent-ready format.
  • File or manage patent applications through external patent counsel.
  • Establish an invention disclosure process for technology teams.
  • Monitor and act on IP infringement, brand misuse, and trademark conflicts.
  • Clear new brand names before launch and support defensive domain registrations.
  • Ensure employee and contractor agreements include strong IP assignment clauses.
  • Advise teams on open-source license compliance.


Commercial Contracts

  • Own the full contract lifecycle for client, vendor, partnership, employment, contractor, software, and inter-company agreements.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, vendor agreements, software license agreements, partnership agreements, employment agreements, contractor agreements, and inter-company service agreements.
  • Review all inbound contracts before signature.
  • Create and maintain standardized contract templates and a clause library for common negotiation points.
  • Maintain a contract register with renewal, expiry, auto-renewal, and termination notice tracking.
  • Ensure inter-company transactions are documented on arm’s length terms for compliance and tax purposes.
  • Support fast turnaround on standard and complex agreements while protecting business interests.


Multi-Jurisdiction Compliance

  • Manage legal compliance across Group entities in India, UAE, and the USA.
  • Support India compliance including Companies Act, ROC filings, board resolutions, GST/TDS legal coordination, Professional Tax, ESIC/PF, and Shops & Establishment requirements.
  • Support UAE compliance including trade license renewals, visa quotas, establishment card, beneficial ownership, economic substance regulations, AML requirements, and free zone obligations.
  • Support USA compliance including annual reports, franchise tax, registered agent coordination, and state-level requirements.
  • Build and maintain a master compliance calendar across all entities.
  • Advise leadership on entity structures, jurisdiction selection, and legal implications for new ventures.


Employment & Contractor Law

  • Standardize employment and contractor agreements for India, UAE, and USA.
  • Advise HR and leadership on contractor classification risk, restrictive covenants, confidentiality, non-compete / non-solicit clauses, and jurisdiction-specific enforceability.
  • Support disciplinary matters, employee grievances, terminations, settlement agreements, and HR policy reviews.
  • Review employee handbooks and internal policies for legal compliance.

Partnerships, Investments & Venture Structuring

  • Draft and negotiate partnership agreements, shareholder agreements, joint venture agreements, operating agreements, and related documentation.
  • Structure technology credit investments and document equity consideration with defensible valuations.
  • Support due diligence for investments, acquisitions, partnerships, and new ventures.
  • Advise on equity structures, vesting, anti-dilution, drag-along, tag-along, exits, and partner obligations.
  • Support fundraising and investor documentation where required.


Dispute Resolution

  • Act as the first legal responder for client claims, vendor disputes, employee grievances, partnership issues, unpaid invoices, and regulatory matters.
  • Assess severity, legal exposure, financial impact, and likelihood of escalation.
  • Manage pre-litigation resolution through negotiation, mediation, and settlement.
  • Engage and manage external litigation counsel where court representation is required.
  • Conduct post-dispute analysis to prevent recurrence.


Data Protection & Privacy

  • Support compliance with India’s DPDP Act, UAE data protection laws, and relevant US state privacy laws.
  • Draft and maintain privacy policies for websites, products, and applications.
  • Draft and negotiate data processing agreements with clients and vendors.
  • Create and maintain data breach response protocols.
  • Provide privacy guidance for candidate data, student data, healthcare-adjacent data, entertainment talent data, and other business-specific data categories.


Governance, Policy & CEO Advisory

  • Manage board meetings, minutes, resolutions, signing authority documentation, and corporate governance records.
  • Draft and maintain policies including anti-corruption, whistleblower, conflict of interest, related party transaction, and document retention policies.
  • Prepare legal updates for the CEO covering IP status, contracts, compliance, employment matters, disputes, risk register updates, and emerging legal concerns.
  • Maintain a legal risk register with severity ratings and mitigation plans.
  • Build legal FAQs, process guides, and a knowledge base for internal teams.
  • Establish and manage external counsel relationships in India, UAE, and USA.


Team Management

  • Manage and develop a Junior Legal Counsel / Paralegal.
  • Delegate research, drafting, filing, and administrative tasks.
  • Review junior work before it is shared with stakeholders or filed.
  • Set priorities, manage workload, and develop the junior team member’s legal judgment and drafting skills.


Required Qualifications & Experience

  • LLB or equivalent law degree from a recognized Indian university.
  • Enrolled as an Advocate with the Bar Council of India.
  • 8–15 years of post-qualification experience across corporate, commercial, and intellectual property law.
  • Strong experience in contracts, corporate compliance, IP protection, employment law, and deal structuring.
  • Trademark registration and prosecution experience in India.
  • Working knowledge of patent processes, either through direct filing or managing external patent counsel.
  • Strong understanding of Indian corporate law, Indian IP laws, and Indian employment law.
  • Experience working across multiple jurisdictions or multi-entity corporate structures.
  • Ability to provide practical, commercially focused legal advice.
  • Excellent English drafting, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to manage a junior legal resource effectively.


Preferred Qualifications

  • LLM in Corporate Law, IP Law, Commercial Law, or related field.
  • In-house experience at a technology company or multi-product business.
  • Registration as a Patent Agent with the Indian Patent Office.
  • Technical background in computer science, engineering, software, or related discipline.
  • Exposure to UAE and/or US legal systems.
  • Familiarity with UAE free zone regulations.
  • Experience with software patents, AI / ML-related IP, data protection, M&A, investments, fundraising, or open-source compliance.


Ideal Candidate

The right candidate will be someone who can operate independently across the full legal spectrum, work directly with the CEO and leadership team, and balance legal risk with commercial urgency. They should be proactive, fast, practical, detail-oriented, and comfortable being the senior-most legal person in the organization.

This person should be able to move from trademark filings to contract negotiations, employment issues, partnership structures, privacy questions, and governance matters without needing constant direction. They should know when to push back, when to find a safe path forward, and how to communicate legal advice in a clear, business-friendly manner.


What We Offer

  • Senior-most legal role in a high-growth, multi-country technology group.
  • Direct reporting to the CEO.
  • Ownership of the complete legal function across IP, contracts, compliance, employment, partnerships, disputes, privacy, and governance.
  • International exposure across India, UAE, and USA.
  • Opportunity to work on software, AI, and technology-led business models.
  • Exposure to multiple portfolio companies, brands, and ventures.
  • Support from a Junior Legal Counsel / Paralegal.
  • Competitive compensation aligned with Mumbai market benchmarks.

About VisibilityStack


VisibilityStack is a demand capture platform that helps businesses capture the demand for their solution, wherever their audience is searching, whether it's Google Search or AI-Search platforms or LLMs. The platform is powered by AI agents that identify what your audience is asking to look for a solution like yours, engineer content that answers those questions, and structure it so Google and AI systems can easily understand and recommend it in their responses. We also strengthen your online credibility through strategic backlinks and a strong social presence.

Everything is guided by real-time data and analytics. We system continues to analyze what's working, remove what does not, and keep your content working around the clock. The result is simple: the right people can find you, trust you, and reach out when they need what you offer.



The Role

We need a Senior Engineer who ships production code that scales. You'll be the technical anchor—building critical infrastructure, solving complex problems, and mentoring junior developers through code reviews and pair programming.


You'll shape our future in four key ways: writing the code that becomes our foundation, We’re looking for a Next.js Developer (Full-Stack) who can build and ship modern web products end-to-end. You’ll work across frontend, backend, and cloud (AWS) and collaborate closely with product and design to deliver fast, reliable experiences. A strong plus: you have a knack for AI-enabled products—you understand how to integrate LLM features thoughtfully, not just “add a chatbot”. This is about technical leadership through excellence.


What's in it for you:

  1. Own mission-critical systems end-to-end — Your code directly generates customer revenue
  2. Skip the politics, ship products — No layers of approval, no enterprise bureaucracy
  3. Shape product direction — Your technical insights influence product strategy, not just implementation
  4. Learn cutting-edge AI in production — Work with LLMs, vector databases, and agent orchestration at scale
  5. Shape technical decisions and processes — Your input matters on how we build, not just what
  6. Accelerated growth path — As we scale, you choose: become our technical lead or remain a deeply influential IC
  7. Direct founder access — Collaborate on product vision, not just execute specs


Location: Janakpuri, Delhi (Hybrid - Maker's Schedule)


Our Work Philosophy:

We follow the Maker's Schedule, not the Manager's Schedule. This means uninterrupted blocks of deep work when you're building, and high-bandwidth collaboration when we're solving problems together.

In Practice:

  1. In-office days: Whiteboard architecture sessions, rapid product iterations, deep dives into product strategy, complex debugging that needs three minds on one problem
  2. Deep work days: Uninterrupted coding from wherever you work best—home, office, or that coffee shop with perfect noise levels
  3. Balance by design: We optimize for both intense collaboration and deep focus


The best technical breakthroughs happen in two modes: intense in-person collaboration where ideas bounce rapidly, and deep solo work where complex problems get solved. We protect both.



Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain production-grade web applications using Next.js (App Router preferred), React, and TypeScript.
  • Develop full-stack features including APIs, server actions, background jobs, and integrations.
  • Architect and implement scalable systems on AWS (deployment, monitoring, security, performance).
  • Work with databases (SQL/NoSQL), caching layers, and queues where appropriate.
  • Collaborate with product/design to turn requirements into clean UX and shippable increments.
  • Own quality through testing, code reviews, CI/CD, observability, and performance tuning.
  • Contribute to technical decisions, architecture, and best practices across the team.

What You’ll Bring (Required)

  • Strong experience with Next.js + React + TypeScript in real production apps.
  • Solid full-stack fundamentals:API design, authentication/authorization
  • data modeling and query optimization
  • debugging distributed systems issues
  • Strong working knowledge of AWS, such as: Lambda, ECS/Fargate, EC2S3CloudFront
  • RDS/DynamoDBAPI Gateway
  • IAM, secrets management, VPC basics
  • CI/CD and infrastructure practices (Terraform/CDK is a plus)
  • Good engineering habits: clean, maintainable code
  • testing mindset
  • performance and security awareness

AI Product “Knack” (Preferred / Nice to Have)

  • Experience integrating AI features using APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock) including:prompt/version management
  • structured outputs / tool calling
  • retrieval (RAG) patterns and embeddings (basic familiarity is fine)
  • Ability to design AI features with UX and safety in mind:latency expectations, fallbacks, streaming responses
  • evaluation/quality loops, guardrails, and logging
  • Curiosity about how AI changes workflows and product capabilities.

Tech Stack (Example)

  • Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind (or similar)
  • Node.js, Postgres/MySQL (and/or DynamoDB)
  • AWS (Lambda/ECS/S3/CloudFront/RDS), CI/CD (GitHub Actions, etc.)
  • Observability: CloudWatch, Sentry, OpenTelemetry (any equivalent)

What Success Looks Like

  • You can take a feature from idea → implementation → deployment with minimal oversight.
  • You ship reliable releases and improve system performance and DX over time.
  • You help the team build AI-powered features that users actually trust and use.
