Yoodli helps people get measurably better in their careers. We help individuals achieve this by helping them land their job, onboard at their companies, learn new skills, practice a speech, sales pitch or difficult conversation, and then take your Yoodli coach with you from one role to the next. For organizations, this means helping you upskill your entire workforce for the AI Future.

We’ve always believed in the human potential. In 2021, Esha and Varun started Yoodli as an AI communication coach - to help people communicate with confidence. Since then, our users have used Yoodli for so much more: to learn new concepts through AI Roleplays, practice different kinds of conversations (sales pitches, job interviews, manager conversations), and even use Yoodli as their personal coach to help them learn to use Gemini, Claude or other AI Tools. It’s why we expanded our technology to be the AI Platform for Human Skills.

The Role

Yoodli is hiring its first dedicated legal hire — someone who can be a genuine business partner, not just a contract reviewer. You'll own the commercial legal function: evaluating risk on customer and vendor agreements, turning redlines efficiently, and giving Sales and RevOps the guidance they need to keep deals moving. The role requires real judgment. You'll run negotiations independently when the situation is routine, know which issues are worth pushing back on and which to let go, and tap outside counsel for matters outside your lane without using them as a crutch. This is a high-visibility role that reports directly to the CFO and has meaningful exposure to nearly every part of the business..

What You'll Do

Own the Contract Lifecycle: Serve as the primary reviewer and negotiator for all inbound commercial agreements — customer MSAs, order forms, NDAs, and vendor contracts. You'll manage redlines, track open issues, and shepherd agreements through to signature.
Be the Business's Legal Partner: Work closely with Sales, RevOps, Finance, and Product on commercial decisions, deal structures, and risk tradeoffs. You'll translate complex legal issues into clear, actionable guidance — helping the business move forward, not just flagging what could go wrong.
Support Data Privacy and Security Compliance: Review and advise on DPA requirements, security exhibits, and privacy-related contractual obligations across customer and vendor agreements. Keep our standard positions current as the regulatory landscape evolves.
Build and Maintain Legal Infrastructure: Develop and own a library of standard agreement templates, negotiation playbooks, and fallback positions so the team has consistent guidance on routine issues and doesn't have to reinvent the wheel on every deal.
Direct Outside Counsel: Scope and manage outside counsel engagements for matters that require deeper or more specialized expertise. Keep work well-defined and costs controlled.
Streamline How Legal Work Flows: Establish contract intake, tracking, and storage processes that give the business visibility into where things stand and reduce friction for everyone involved.
