ABOUT THE ROLE
We are seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented Contract Specialist, Principal to support our Legal team, reporting to the Associate General Counsel.

- Triage incoming contract requests and route them appropriately
- Maintain contract status trackers, including execution, renewals, and expirations
- Ensure complete documentation (SOWs, exhibits, insurance certificates, data protection terms, etc.) prior to execution
- Keep contract templates current and aligned with Legal's risk posture
- Update playbooks and fallback language in coordination with attorneys
- Maintain a clean, organized clause library to support efficient negotiation
- Coordinate signature packets and associated workflows
- Oversee contract management processes, ensuring organized, accessible, and compliant documentation practices
- Maintain strong contract hygiene across business units
- Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to gather business terms and confirm scope completeness
- Manage internal expectations around timelines and deliverables
- Coordinate post-execution handoffs to other teams
- Provide monthly contract activity metrics to Legal Ops and the CLO
- Identify recurring bottlenecks and recommend process and template improvements
- Support implementation of lightweight automation tools (e.g., NDA automation, intake workflows)
ABOUT YOU
- 3–7+ years of experience reviewing, redlining, and managing commercial contract lifecycles
- Strong working knowledge of NDAs, vendor agreements, and services contracts
- Demonstrated experience conducting high-volume NDA review and redlining independently
- Comfortable redlining against playbooks and applying fallback language independently
- Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail
- Able to manage multiple contracts and deadlines simultaneously
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Proactive, solutions-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
- Experience with contract lifecycle management tools and e-signature platforms (e.g., HelloSign, DocuSign)
- Sound judgment in identifying when to escalate legal or risk issues

About this role
Hut 8, a data center operator focused on AI, colocation, cloud, and Bitcoin mining infrastructure, is looking for a Contract Specialist, Principal to anchor its legal operations in Miami. Reporting to the Associate General Counsel, you'll own the full lifecycle of routine commercial agreements—from first-pass review and redlining of NDAs, vendor contracts, and SaaS agreements, through drafting from templates, maintaining contract systems, and coordinating execution workflows. This is a high-volume role that demands both independent judgment and the ability to recognize when complex or non-standard issues need attorney escalation.
The position suits someone with 3–7+ years of hands-on contract management experience who can work efficiently against established playbooks and fallback positions. You'll need strong redlining skills, familiarity with contract lifecycle and e-signature tools, and the organizational discipline to manage multiple deadlines, maintain clean documentation, and keep templates and clause libraries current. Beyond the mechanics, you'll partner with cross-functional teams to confirm scope, identify process bottlenecks, and support lightweight automation initiatives—making this as much about driving operational improvement as executing individual contracts.
This is an in-office role in Hut 8's Brickell headquarters. The company offers standard benefits including medical, dental, vision, disability, and PTO, and emphasizes a fast-paced, entrepreneurial culture where you'll work alongside people from software, energy, engineering, finance, and consulting backgrounds.
