We are Fides

Fides, a LegalTech company founded in Munich and Berlin, is on a mission to enable good governance globally. Our AI-powered platform helps multinational companies manage their corporate governance across more than 100 jurisdictions, streamlining entity and board management with built-in legal logic tailored to local requirements.

In 2025, Fides was acquired by LegalOn, a pioneer in Legal AI used by over 8,000 in-house legal teams worldwide. Together, we are building the next generation of governance and legal technology, helping global enterprises manage governance workflows with unprecedented speed, accuracy, and compliance. Backed by experienced founders and strong international traction, we are now scaling our team to the US to bring our technology to companies around the world.

Your mission

We are looking for a Product Manager to help shape and scale Fides across EMEA, Japan, and the US.

Fides helps legal and corporate teams manage company information, ownership structures, and governance workflows—from board meetings and resolutions to documents and signatures. We make complex legal work easier to navigate, with AI creating new opportunities to simplify everyday tasks.

Now part of LegalOn, a global legal technology company, Fides retains a dedicated product and engineering team. We combine the ownership and fast decision-making of a focused startup team with the reach and resources of an international organization.

You will work closely with the Head of Product, engineering, and colleagues across the business to understand customer problems, set priorities, and turn ideas into useful, well-designed features.

We welcome both experienced product managers and lawyers with relevant domain expertise who want to move into product management. What matters is your ability to understand complex problems, make sound decisions, and work with a team to deliver solutions.

What You’ll Do

• Own product initiatives from discovery to launch: speak with customers, explore problems, define solutions, and follow through on delivery and adoption.

• Turn complex workflows into intuitive experiences: translate legal and business needs into clear requirements, working closely with engineering to make thoughtful trade-offs.

• Help shape our roadmap: contribute to product strategy and prioritization alongside the Head of Product, balancing customer value, business impact, and development effort.

• Explore practical applications of AI: identify where AI can improve legal work, test ideas, and help evaluate the usefulness and reliability of solutions.

• Collaborate across the business: work with Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success on customer insights, positioning, launches, and product adoption.

• Learn from results: use customer feedback and product data to assess whether improvements solve the intended problem and decide what comes next.

• Improve how we work: help develop product practices that support a growing international business while keeping the team pragmatic and adaptable.

Your profile

• One of two backgrounds:

  • Product management: typically 3+ years of experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, legal tech, or another domain with complex workflows.

  • Legal practice: experience as a lawyer, ideally in corporate law, governance, or an in-house legal team, with a clear motivation to move into product. You may have less formal PM experience, but can demonstrate how you have improved processes, introduced technology, or helped deliver digital solutions.

• Practical exposure to AI: you have used AI tools meaningfully in your work, experimented with LLMs, or contributed to an AI-related initiative. You are curious about their potential and thoughtful about their limitations.

• A hands-on approach: you take initiative, test assumptions, and turn ambiguous problems into concrete next steps.

• Strong analytical judgment: you can break down complex requirements, weigh competing priorities, and explain your decisions.

• Clear communication and collaboration: you can connect customer, business, and technical perspectives and work effectively with engineering.

• Customer focus and commercial awareness: you care about solving real problems and understand how product decisions contribute to business outcomes.

• Experience with prototyping, workflow automation, or developing AI-powered features is a plus.

Languages

• English: professional fluency required.

• German: an advantage.
