About the startup project
LegalMind AI (Lexi) is a Berlin-based legal tech startup focused on the music industry. Founded by Mariia Saveleva, a music lawyer with 15+ years of experience including Head of Business and Legal Affairs at Sony Music across 13 territories. We are currently in active customer discovery with music labels, publishers, DSPs, and artists to identify a specific pain worth solving with AI. Early signals are strong. We have working MVP, accelerator backing (MediaTech Hub Potsdam, AI Nation, Grace), and a growing reputation in the Berlin startup ecosystem. We are at a pivotal moment: validating direction and looking for the right co-founder to build this together.

About the Job
Co-founding opportunity in music legal tech. Equity 30 to 50%. I bring 15 years of music industry expertise, business development and hustling. You bring technical depth and product thinking.
As co-founder you will own the product and technical direction from day one. You will work directly with me on customer discovery, shape what we build and for whom, and turn validated pain into a product people pay for. This is not an execution role. This is a founding role with real ownership.
