Job description

Who we are 

Yubo is the Social Discovery app to make new friends and hang out online. By eliminating likes and follows, we empower our users to create genuine connections and show up as their true selves. 

We've pioneered a new way for Gen Z to socialize online, and with millions of active users, our goal is to redefine how we connect today and tomorrow. 

Our team is international, multicultural and deeply committed to its mission. As the leading platform to socialize online, we have a special responsibility to build a safe digital space for our community. Safety is embedded in our DNA, and our proactive approach focuses on user protection, support, and education. We also work closely with the broader technology industry to share our knowledge and NGOs create industry-leading child protection standards. 

Join us in this exciting journey and help us shape the future of social interactions! 

About this role

Why this role? We’re reinforcing our Legal team so we can accelerate strategic compliance projects while streamlining routine work (research, documentation, contract management, etc.). Target start: January (flexible).

Where you sit. Reporting to our Legal & Regulatory Affairs function (mentored by Alexandre), you’ll support the legal operations and help us stay ahead of major regulatory frameworks (e.g., DSA, GDPR, AI Act).

Our approach to privacy

  • As part of your job, you will be working on tools that process personal data relating to Yubo users.
  • As a social media platform, we require our employees to have a strong awareness and understanding of privacy issues, and in particular of children's online safety, privacy and well-being.
  • Every employee at Yubo is expected to participate in compliance with data protection regulations as well as the continuous improvement of our Privacy & Safety By Design measures.

    • Your responsibilities

  • Support the Legal team (2 Legal Counsels) in day-to-day tasks across privacy, regulatory, contract, and consumer law matters.
  • Conduct legal research on EU digital regulations (e.g. DSA, AI Act, GDPR, Consumer Law).
  • Assist in reviewing and drafting legal documents (e.g. contracts, privacy policies, internal memos).
  • Help maintain internal compliance documentation (e.g. processing records, DPIAs, contract templates).
  • Contribute to monitoring regulatory developments and summarizing key insights.
  • Participate in cross-functional projects with teams such as Product, Trust & Safety, and Public Affairs.
  • Assist with organizing legal workflows and knowledge management.
  • Collaborate in the preparation of presentations or training sessions on legal topics.

    • Our tools

  • Notion (knowledge & documentation), Slack (collaboration), Tomorro (contracts). Experience with modern digital/AI tools is a plus.

    • Who you are

  • Currently in Lawyer school or completing a Master 2 in Business / IT / Privacy / Tech law (France or UK).
  • Solid academic grounding in areas such as private business law, data privacy (GDPR), IP, contracts, platform regulation, and/or consumer law.
  • Research & synthesis powerhouse with strong attention to detail; comfortable working in English.
  • Genuine interest in technology and digital regulation; team player with clear communication; prior internships in a law firm or tech company are a plus.

    • The recruitment process

  • Hiring Manager interview (45 min)
  • Technical interview and HR (45 min)

    • Join Yubo and help shape the future of Social Discovery while enjoying a culture that values flexibility, well-being, and impact.

    Here’s how we live our mission every day:

    You own the impact: Step up, adapt, and make it matter

    Unconventionally Smart: Hack with intent, borrow smart, build better

    Be Bold & Resilient: Raise your head, break barriers, keep moving forward
