What is Athennian?

Athennian is a Calgary, Alberta-based legal-tech SaaS founded in 2017 by Adrian Camara, a former corporate lawyer at McCarthy Tétrault LLP. The platform automates legal entity management across corporations, trusts, LLCs, and partnerships — covering officers and directors, registered agents, share ledgers, document storage, jurisdiction filings, and transaction workflows. Customers include in-house legal teams, corporate-services providers, and the entity-management practices at multi-national law firms. Athennian operates as a trademark of Paper Interactive, Inc., the underlying Canadian company. It has raised approximately $46.7M across 6 rounds, headlined by a $33M Series B in March 2022 led by Centana Growth Partners. As of 2026 the company employs ~79 people, with hiring concentrated in product, engineering, customer experience, and enterprise GTM. Athennian sits at the intersection of corporate governance, compliance, and modern SaaS — a meaningfully under-served vertical historically dominated by Diligent, BoardEffect, and aging on-prem entity-management tools.

Mission & values

Make corporate governance and legal entity management beautiful, automated, and accurate — so legal teams spend time on judgment, not on chasing share ledgers and director lists.

Qualifications

Athennian hires across engineering (full-stack, platform, data), product, design, customer success / implementation, sales, marketing, finance, and people. Most non-customer-facing roles are **Canada-remote-friendly** with the Calgary HQ for periodic in-person work; some senior US-based GTM roles for enterprise expansion. **Domain experience in corporate governance, entity management, or legal operations is highly valued** for product, CS, and SE roles — a meaningful number of Athennian's hires come from law firms, compliance teams, and corporate-services providers.
