Key Responsibilities

1. Capital Strategy and IPO Execution (Primary Focus)

  • Lead the US IPO Process : Take full ownership of all legal aspects of the company's Initial Public Offering (IPO) on a US stock exchange (e.g., NYSE or NASDAQ).
  • Strategic Advisor : Act as the chief legal advisor to the executive team and Board of Directors on all IPO-related matters, including structure, timeline, compliance, and risk.
  • External Counsel Management : Lead, coordinate, and manage relationships with external legal counsel, underwriters, auditors, and other advisors involved in the IPO.
  • Document Drafting and Review : Oversee and deeply engage in the preparation, review, and finalization of all IPO-related legal documents, including the registration statement (F-1), governance charters, and more.
  • Ensure Compliance : Ensure the company's full compliance with all SEC and other relevant regulatory requirements before, during, and after the public listing.

2. Legal and Compliance Leadership

  • Corporate Governance : Establish and maintain robust corporate governance standards for a public company, supporting the Board of Directors and its committees (Audit, Compensation, Nominating & Governance).
  • Compliance Framework : Build and enhance a global compliance program covering anti-corruption (FCPA), antitrust, trade compliance, data privacy & security (GDPR, CCPA), and export controls.
  • M&A and Financing : Lead legal due diligence, structuring, negotiation, and execution for strategic investments, financing rounds, joint ventures, and M&A transactions.
  • Commercial Contracts : Guide the team in reviewing and negotiating complex commercial agreements, including global strategic partnerships, major sales and procurement contracts, and technology licensing agreements.
  • IP Strategy : Work closely with the technology team to develop and implement a global intellectual property strategy, managing patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.
  • Dispute Resolution : Manage significant litigation, arbitration, and other dispute resolution proceedings.
  • 3. Team Management and Strategic Collaboration

  • Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing global legal team.
  • Act as a key member of the executive team, actively participating in strategic decision-making and providing proactive legal and risk counsel.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional departments (Finance, HR, Business Development, R&D) to support overall business objectives.
  • Qualifications

    Mandatory Requirements :

  • Juris Doctor (J.D.) or equivalent law degree from a recognized law school in the US, China, or other common law jurisdiction, with active bar membership in good standing.
  • A minimum of 15 years of legal experience, including a senior role at a top-tier law firm or as in-house counsel at a high-growth multinational technology company.
  • Must have a proven track record of leading at least one company through a complete US IPO process and deep familiarity with post-IPO ongoing compliance obligations.
  • Extensive expertise in US securities laws, Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), and stock exchange listing rules.
  • Demonstrated excellence in corporate governance, M&A, complex commercial negotiations, and compliance management within a multinational context.
  • Outstanding communication, negotiation, and leadership skills in both English and Mandarin Chinese, with the ability to effectively liaise with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Exceptional business acumen and strategic thinking, with the ability to translate complex legal issues into practical business solutions.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth technology environment, demonstrating adaptability and resilience.
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • Prior in-house experience within the green tech, renewable energy, IoT, or SaaS industries.
  • Experience handling complex cross-border data privacy and regulatory matters.
  • Proven experience in building and leading a distributed, global legal team.
