Build and own the infrastructure that keeps Legal running – the systems, processes, and programs.

Stay on top of the legal and regulatory landscape that shapes our business.

Requirements

What you’ll need

JD from an accredited law school and active bar membership in at least one US state.
4-7 years of transactional legal experience, with a meaningful focus on commercial contracts – at a firm, in-house, or both.
Strong working knowledge of SaaS and data licensing; experience negotiating with enterprise buyers is a plus.
Comfort with healthcare-adjacent regulatory frameworks (HIPAA, No Surprises Act, CMS price transparency) – or a genuine eagerness to learn them.
Low ego and high ownership.
Intellectually curious and adaptable – you want to understand the business deeply, not just the questions that come across your desk.
Comfortable being the only lawyer in the room – and confident enough to say "I don't know yet, but I'll find out" without losing credibility.
Experience with AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, and ownership of the legal side of AI at TQ.
