Who we seek:

We’re looking for a Sr. Commercial Counsel to join our growing, but tight-knit legal team. Our ideal candidate is someone who has hands-on global enterprise software transaction experience and is able to drive an efficient negotiation process that all sides feel is fair and balanced. Someone with commercial and complex, high-touch tech transaction experience, coming from in-house at a high-tech growth company, or at a law firm, ideally a combination of both.

What you’ll do:

Draft, negotiate, and advise cross-functional teams on various commercial agreements, including software/ SAAS licenses, NDAs, evaluation agreements, ecosystem partnership agreements, DPAs, and vendor contracts.
Provide thoughtful and practical product, business, and legal counseling on various legal risks, business strategies, and other issues related to product features, commercial transactions, and general operations.
Manage and resolve complicated issues related to commercial deals, and drive alignment with various cross-functional teams.
Be ready to own the entire contracting cycle--from initial draft to execution--and collaborate with business, privacy and product teams to drive contract negotiations to timely and successful completion.
Help build, streamline, and operationalize the company’s contracting process to help us scale as a Legal team and as a company.
Support HR, Marketing, Product Development, and other internal constituencies as needed in contracts, research, deal structuring, and risk counseling.
Get tagged in by the GC where needed as a utility player/problem solver. This is an “everyone does everything” team, where we learn from each other.

What you’ll bring:

8+ years of experience, complex tech transactional expertise, but intellectual curiosity and desire to expand areas of knowledge and participation as the business might require, e.g. privacy, product, HR, corporate matters.
J.D., with strong academic credentials and membership in at least one U.S. state bar.
Outstanding written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to advocate for a position while maintaining a collaborative and open-minded approach.

Ability to work on multiple issues simultaneously and set appropriate priorities with clients and deliver results.
Proven ability to provide entrepreneurial, pragmatic, business-oriented advice, with a dedication to superior customer service.
