About the role
- We are seeking a highly capable and independent Commercial Counsel to manage and lead a wide range of complex commercial legal matters. In this pivotal role, you will autonomously draft, negotiate, and review sophisticated procurement agreements, sales contracts, partner agreements, and other strategic commercial arrangements. The successful candidate will be expected to maintain consistent availability from 8AM to 5PM Pacific Time, with occasional extended or earlier hours to address critical business requirements. This position is ideal for a proactive attorney who thrives in a dynamic environment, expertly balancing competing priorities and driving cross-functional initiatives. You will report to the Senior Manager, Commercial Counsel, and be instrumental in enhancing the legal team's strategic impact and operational excellence. This generalist role will leverage and deepen your expertise across multiple commercial legal domains, with a continued emphasis on procurement, while also taking ownership of high-visibility projects across the commercial legal portfolio.
Requirements
- 5-8 years of progressive legal experience, with at least 3-5 years gained in-house at a high-growth technology company or advising tech clients at a reputable law firm. Demonstrated ability to be a strong team player and willingness to "roll up sleeves" and assist multiple internal and external stakeholders, ensuring timely and efficient project execution. Proven ability to operate with significant independence, manage negotiations and projects, and exercise consistently strong legal and business judgment without constant oversight. Exceptional and persuasive communication skills (written and verbal) with the ability to influence stakeholders, resolve conflicts, and tailor messaging effectively across all levels of the organization, including senior management. A proactive mindset with a track record of identifying, designing, and implementing process improvements that enhance legal operations and support business objectives. Capacity for strategic thinking, consistently analyzing risks and rewards, and applying creative problem-solving to complex, cross-functional challenges. A highly collaborative individual who actively seeks and shares inputs, fosters strong working relationships, and can work in parallel with senior managers and directors to achieve shared goals. Fluency in written and spoken (Spanish is a significant plus.)
