About the role

  • Manage end-to-end contract lifecycle for customer agreements (SaaS subscriptions, recruiting services), partner agreements, and vendor/procurement contracts, from initial request through execution.
  • Draft, review, and redline commercial agreements using established templates and playbooks; independently negotiate standard terms and identify when matters require escalation to outside counsel.
  • Maintain and improve contract templates, clause libraries, and negotiation playbooks to reflect evolving business needs and market standards.
  • Own the contract management system (CLM)—ensuring accurate records, complete metadata, version control, and reporting on key metrics (cycle time, renewal dates, obligation tracking).
  • Manage security and compliance reviews by coordinating DPA execution, overseeing security questionnaire responses with IT, and tracking compliance obligations across the contract portfolio.
  • Partner with Sales and Customer Success to accelerate deal velocity through streamlined contract processes, clear internal SLAs, and proactive bottleneck resolution.
  • Track and manage contract renewals, expirations, and auto-renewal deadlines across the portfolio; own the renewal calendar and escalation process.
  • Coordinate with Finance on contract terms that impact revenue recognition, billing, and procurement budgets.
  • Build and maintain a contracts FAQ and self-service resource library to reduce repetitive legal inquiries from internal stakeholders.
  • Leverage AI tools to accelerate contract review, redlining, and risk identification—SeekOut expects every team member to integrate AI into their daily workflows to maximize efficiency and output.
  • Use AI-powered analytics to identify patterns in contract negotiations, flag non-standard terms, and generate insights that improve playbook effectiveness over time.

Requirements

  • 3–5 years of experience in contract management, legal operations, or a paralegal role in a B2B SaaS or technology company.
  • Solid familiarity with SaaS commercial agreements (MSAs, order forms, SOWs, DPAs, NDAs) and standard negotiation positions.
  • Hands-on experience with contract lifecycle management (CLM) tools (e.g., Ironclad, DocuSign CLM, Agiloft, or similar).
  • Working understanding of data privacy fundamentals (GDPR, CCPA) as they relate to commercial contracts and DPAs.
  • Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage a high volume of contracts across multiple stakeholders simultaneously.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain contract terms in plain language to non-legal stakeholders.
  • Proven experience working cross-functionally with Sales, Finance, and IT teams.
  • Comfortable presenting AI/automation value in regulated enterprise environments (data privacy, model transparency, change management).
  • Demonstrated comfort with AI tools for document review, drafting, or legal operations; enthusiasm for pushing the boundaries of what AI can do in a contracts function.
  • Paralegal certification or bachelor’s degree preferred; equivalent practical experience is welcome.
  • Familiarity with InfoSec standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001) and security review processes is a plus.

  • Health benefits including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, health savings and flexible spending accounts
  • Stock Options
  • Stipends for home office, education, and wellness
  • Flexible paid time off
  • Company paid holidays, including Juneteenth and Indigenous People’s Day
