General Counsel (f/m/x)

Permanent employee, Full-time · Munich
TYTAN Technologies
TYTAN is a young deep-tech defense startup that develops a cost-effective counter-drone solution to protect people and critical infrastructure. We are an international team of ambitious engineers who combine expertise in autonomous systems and UAV design.

As our General Councel, you will be TYTAN’s first in-house legal counsil and a strategic advisor to the leadership team. You will build TYTAN’s legal function from the ground up—balancing risk, compliance, and innovation as we scale across jurisdictions and operational complexity. Your work will directly influence how TYTAN navigates defense regulation, international expansion, contract strategy, and dual-use technologies.

Your roadmap to make an impact
  • Establish and lead TYTAN’s legal department, acting as the key advisor on corporate, regulatory, and commercial legal matters.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate contracts (e.g., with suppliers, partners, customers, and governments), ensuring TYTAN’s interests are protected.
  • Ensure compliance with relevant national and international laws, including dual-use export regulations, defense contracting requirements, and data protection.
  • Support entity formation, IP strategy, employment law matters, and internal governance.
  • Liaise with external counsel on specialized matters, especially around defense procurement, security clearances, and international operations.
  • Develop scalable legal processes and documentation standards across departments.
  • Serve as a trusted thought partner to the executive team on strategic risk and compliance.
Who you are
  • Qualified lawyer (EU jurisdiction) with 4+ years of legal experience, including significant in-house or startup experience.
  • Strong knowledge of commercial and corporate law; exposure to defense, export control, or dual-use regulations is a significant plus.
  • Able to structure complex deals and regulatory frameworks into pragmatic, actionable guidance.
  • Experienced in managing external legal providers and translating legal advice into business value.
  • Highly organized, discreet, and proactive; you thrive in high-stakes environments with evolving priorities.
  • Fluent in English; German is a strong advantage.
Why TYTAN?
  • Be part of something bigger — turn legal frameworks into real-world impact where it matters most.
  • Shape the foundation — build the legal systems that underpin a fast-scaling defense startup.
  • Grow with us — gain exposure to international operations and complex regulatory environments.
  • Enjoy autonomy and trust — be a core part of the leadership fabric.
  • Participate in our success with stock options.
  • Benefit from flexible working hours, a modern office in Munich, and access to sports and wellness programs through EGYM Wellpass.
