Remote, US
Our take: The real work here is setting the strategy for a global commercial legal function and negotiating the highest-stakes deals while building the distributed team and playbooks that let a SaaS company transact at scale.
You have already built a commercial legal function once, and now you want to shape one at the frontier of DevSecOps, AI, and enterprise SaaS. This is a seat at the top table, partnering with the CRO and CFO on the deals that decide how a global company goes to market, while you build and grow a distributed team of sharp attorneys who scale contracting with speed and integrity. If you love turning messy AI regulation into practical positions and championing tools that make legal work faster, this is your kind of hard problem.
