What We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who is  more than a traditional legal advisor  — someone who can become a trusted business partner to VIWELL as we scale.

The successful candidate should be able to take a complex legal issue, understand the commercial context, and provide  clear, practical, and actionable advice  rather than purely theoretical legal opinions.

You should be comfortable operating in a growing technology environment where priorities can change quickly and where legal support is required across multiple areas of the business.
