Type: Full-time
This role is ideal for a mid-to-senior legal professional with at least 7 years of experience split between a top-tier law firm and an in-house environment. You should be a versatile "generalist+" who is equally comfortable negotiating complex SaaS and influencer contracts as you are managing corporate governance, M&A transactions, and capitalization tables.
The compensation is highly competitive ($225k – $285k) for a mid-level role, supplemented by a robust benefits package that includes a 4% 401k match and specialized allowances for childcare, fertility, and "dogfooding" the app. While the team is "remote co-located," you must live within commuting distance of the NYC, SF, or LA hubs to participate in in-person strategy sessions.
**You might be a good fit if you...**
* Have a JD and active bar membership in CA or NY with a strong background in commercial law.
* Enjoy building scalable legal playbooks and templates rather than just "spot-checking" contracts.
* Can translate complex legal risks into clear, actionable advice for Product and Finance teams.
* Thrive in high-growth startup environments where you need to manage multiple high-stakes projects independently.
