Structure options: Open to contract/consulting arrangement or part-time employment, depending on candidate preference and tax/regulatory considerations

Availability: Responsive availability for board meetings, urgent contract turnarounds, and time-sensitive transaction matters, even outside core scheduled days

Compensation: Structured as a monthly retainer or day-rate, to be scoped based on anticipated hours; potential for equity component given AltaML's growth stage

This job description is intended to convey information essential to understanding the scope of the role and is not exhaustive. Time commitment, structure, and responsibilities may be adjusted as AltaML's needs evolve, including a potential path to full-time.
