About the role

  • Own and manage the high-volume commercial contracts workflow in support of the Legal team
  • Serve as first-line reviewer, redliner, and negotiator on incoming vendor agreements, SaaS order forms and MSAs, statements of work, and routine low-level customer contracts
  • Apply established playbooks and pre-approved fallback positions to resolve common negotiation issues independently; escalate to Corporate Counsel when matters exceed defined risk thresholds or require legal judgment
  • Draft and negotiate contract amendments, renewals, and change orders on template-driven or recurring counterparty relationships
  • Review and provide practical guidance on standard commercial provisions including limitation of liability, indemnification, IP ownership, data processing, termination rights, and payment terms
  • Serve as the day-to-day procurement point of contact for the Legal team — fielding incoming contract requests, coordinating with Procurement, and managing vendor relationships through the contracting lifecycle
  • Serve as the Legal team's subject matter expert for our contract lifecycle management system — owning system configuration, user support, data integrity, and ongoing maintenance
  • Own the end-to-end intake process for contract requests — including monitoring incoming requests from our Coupa procurement system, creating and routing HappyFox tickets, and tracking status through execution
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date contract records, including metadata, renewal dates, counterparty information, and key terms
  • Develop and refine contract playbooks, standard templates, and pre-approved fallback language for the highest-volume contract types
  • Partner with Legal Ops to identify patterns in the contract queue — recurring counterparties, common negotiation issues, intake bottlenecks — and proactively propose standardization or automation opportunities.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in commercial contracts management, in-house contracts review, procurement operations, or transactional paralegal work
  • Demonstrated ability to independently review, redline, and negotiate commercial agreements (vendor, SaaS, services) with limited attorney oversight
  • Strong working knowledge of standard commercial contract provisions — limitation of liability, indemnification, IP ownership, data processing/privacy, termination, and payment terms
  • Experience managing a high-volume contract queue across multiple concurrent matters, with strong prioritization judgment
  • Hands-on experience with a contract lifecycle management system — including record management, metadata, and renewal tracking; systems ownership or admin experience a plus
  • Familiarity with procurement workflows and contract intake processes; experience working with a procurement platform (Coupa or comparable)
  • Excellent written communication skills — able to write clear, concise redlines and explain contract positions to non-legal stakeholders
  • Strong organizational skills and a process orientation; someone who spots inefficiencies and fixes them rather than working around them
  • Comfort navigating and learning new systems quickly; interest in contributing to platform migrations and tooling build-outs.
Benefits
  • Flexibility to work where/how you want within your country of employment – in-office, remote, or hybrid
  • Day 1 access to robust health and wellness benefits, including an annual wellness stipend
  • 401k with up to a 4% match and immediate vesting
  • Flexible and generous (FTO) time-off
  • Employee Stock Purchase Program
