What You'll Do

Independently negotiate MSAs, SaaS agreements, NDAs, DPAs, vendor contracts, partnership deals, and other commercial agreements.

Draft agreements and templates efficiently across varied contract and business types.

Advise founders and in-house teams through Slack and calls, focusing on actionable guidance that helps close deals.

Turn negotiation positions and review standards into a practical knowledge base, playbooks, and AI workflows.

Help onboard and support an additional commercial counsel as the team grows.

Active US bar membership in good standing, with California preferred and New York also considered.

Strong experience independently drafting and negotiating technology and SaaS commercial agreements, including terms involving liability, indemnity, intellectual property, data, and termination.

A hands-on individual contributor with experience across multiple industries and contract types, a deal-closing approach, and the ability to explain legal tradeoffs plainly.

Comfort using AI tools in legal practice and developing repeatable workflows; experience with Slack and AI-powered legal workflows is relevant.
