About Carry

Carry is on a mission to help our customers grow wealth through smart strategies, tax-advantaged investing, and personalized planning. We started with the Solo 401k for self-employed business owners and are rapidly expanding our suite of products across investing and tax.

Investing and tax can be opaque and confusing. We believe everyone deserves the same level of strategy, automation, and opportunity— and are building the tools to make that happen.

Why Join Us?

We’re a small, focused team building real products that help people gain control of their finances. We value high ownership, fast iteration, and working directly with customers. If you're passionate about building financial tools that actually work, this is your place.

About the Role

We're looking for our first General Counsel to own and evolve the legal strategy at the core of Carry. You'll help us build, scale, and refine the approaches that deliver financial services and move millions of dollars across banking, crypto, and retirement products.

This role is perfect for a product-focused attorney who loves solving real customer problems end-to-end—from brainstorming strategy and ideas through delivery and execution.

What You'll Do

  • Work in person with our team in our Williamsburg office

  • Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Compliance functions to navigate complex legal questions and guide product and service development

  • Develop internal legal function as the company scales

  • Partner with outside counsel to examine complex legal and regulatory questions at the intersection of tax, retirement, regulatory, and financial services

What We're Looking For

  • JD; 5+ years of experience across law firm and in-house roles

  • Experience with any of: financial services (broker-dealer, FINRA, SEC investment adviser), ERISA (defined benefit / defined contribution, compensation), tax (IRC, tax firm), fintech (software services, platforms)

  • Product-minded and execution focused

  • Highly collaborative, strong written and verbal communicator

Compensation

  • Salary: $240,000 - $260,000

  • Equity: Generous Equity Package

  • Other Benefits: Competitive health, dental and vision benefits, paid time off, and other benefits.
