Requirements
• You’re a commercially minded lawyer who wants to be close to the business—not just advising from the sidelines. You have experience negotiating SaaS contracts with customers of all sizes, including large enterprise customers, deep knowledge of data privacy, and get energized by solving for speed and precision. • You bring the same level of care to helping us build and update our processes and workflows as you do redlining a DPA. You understand that processes are part of the product—and you don’t consider operational rigor to be a chore. • You’ll thrive here if you: • Are a strong communicator who can hold your own with customers, Sales and Security—without ego and with respect • Primarily see yourself as a partner to Sales and Security • Are comfortable thinking out of the box: challenging assumptions, doing things differently and taking qualified risks • Are energized by a fast-moving environment where you’ll be left to own your work • Curious and able to keep up with our rapidly changing and innovative technology • Extensive legal experience, bonus points if you have in-house counsel experience • Demonstrated expertise in negotiating complex customer contracts, with a strong ability to drive favorable terms while balancing commercial objectives and risk. • Familiarity with data privacy laws across US, Canada, and Europe (GDPR, PIPEDA, etc.) • Strong attention to detail and follow-through—especially on the operational side • Comfortable using legal-focused software applications to track and manage contract activity and negotiations • Experience in other areas of law (particularly governance, employment, intellectual property) is useful • Equity Note • Equity Note • Frequently cited statistics show that people who identify with historically marginalized groups are likely to apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. We encourage you to help us break that statistic and apply even if you don’t meet every single qualification—your potential is what matters most to us.
