full-timeIP Rights Manager
Mistral.ai · Paris
Mistral.ai is a full‑stack AI company that builds models, developer tools and applications for enterprises in finance, manufacturing, defense, healthcare and the public sector. The IP Rights Manager sits on the IP & Licensing team and is responsible for turning legal analysis of data‑related agreements into repeatable, automated processes. Daily tasks include researching the rights status of incoming datasets, extracting key terms from contracts, populating a central rights‑and‑obligations database, and monitoring compliance with usage, confidentiality and re‑use restrictions. The role also designs AI‑powered workflows for contract review, obligation extraction and renewal alerts, and works with legal and commercial colleagues to keep licensing metadata up to date. The position is suited to candidates with a bachelor’s degree in law, publishing, information science or a related field, and two to five years of experience in copyright, permissions, licensing or legal operations, preferably in a technology or data‑driven environment. Strong knowledge of EU and US copyright law, meticulous attention to detail, project‑management ability and comfort building automated legal workflows are essential.
About Mistral Mistral provides full-stack AI solutions: from frontier models to developer tools, applications, and compute. We partner with enterprises tackling the hardest problems across high-stakes industries like finance, manufacturing, defense, healthcare, and the public sector, co-creating customized AI systems that they can run on their terms. We are a dynamic, collaborative team passionate about AI and its potential to transform society. Our diverse workforce thrives in competitive environments and is committed to driving innovation. Our teams are distributed between Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East. We are creative, low-ego and team-spirited. The Role As a Legal Operations Specialist – Data Licensing on the IP & Licensing team, you will own the processes that let Mistral license content and data without slowing down. This role exists because we need someone who can turn legal analysis into repeatable workflows — managing rights, obligations, and restrictions across our growing dataset portfolio. You will work closely with the colleagues who negotiate our commercial and legal agreements, turning their work into clear metadata, tracked obligations, and automated systems. Your impact will be visible in how smoothly data moves into our AI products: fewer bottlenecks, clearer rights status, and one reliable record for every data agreement we sign. You will sit where copyright, data protection, and AI meet, making sure that as we acquire and use training data, we comply with EU and US law, respect third-party rights, and enforce the restrictions our contracts impose. In scope: clearing permissions for inbound data, reviewing and codifying contracts, maintaining a central rights-and-obligations database, and building AI-powered workflows that make all of this scalable. What You Will Do Clear inbound data usage requests by researching rights status, scope, obligations, and restrictions — including anonymization and data protection requirements — before data enters our systems. Review data-related agreements and codify their key terms into structured metadata, maintaining our template library and playbook alongside Legal. Assess whether specific AI use cases fall within the scope of third-party agreements, flag gaps, and recommend contract amendments. Build and maintain a central database that serves as the single source of truth for every signed data-related agreement. Track and manage compliance with ongoing obligations — permitted uses, confidentiality, re-use rights — automate our reporting, and administer master licensing partnerships. Verify provenance, ownership, and consent for acquired data, and identify obligations that require active monitoring. Monitor that Mistral clients and partners stay within their granted rights, operating the approval system that enforces legal restrictions. Design and run AI-powered workflows for contract review assistance, obligation extraction, and renewal alerts. What We're Looking For A bachelor's degree in law, publishing, information science, business, or a related field. 2–5 years of experience in copyright, permissions, licensing, legal operations, or contract administration — ideally in an AI, tech, or data-driven environment. Working knowledge of EU and US copyright law and contract administration, with demonstrated ability to interpret contracts independently. Meticulous attention to detail and discretion with confidential contracts, combined with strong project-management skills. Clear, direct communication and the initiative to anticipate needs through ambiguity. A legal-ops mindset: you want to turn legal analysis into repeatable, scalable processes, not just handle one-off reviews. Comfort building agentic AI workflows in a complex enterprise environment — you are an AI power user, ideally with experience setting up such workflows in a legal team. Additional depth in formal legal training, CLM platforms (e.g., Ironclad), publishing-house contracts, or European languages (French, German, Spanish, etc.) is welcome. What We Offer We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your well-being, growth, and work-life balance. Benefits vary by country and may include healthcare coverage, parental leave, retirement plans, relocation support, wellness programs, meal and transportation allowances, and other location-specific perks.
