About the Team The Legal team is a strategic partner to the business, helping teams move quickly and responsibly as the company scales. We work cross-functionally with supply chain, business development, product, engineering, partnerships, and other groups to enable innovation, manage risk, and build scalable processes. Our team values practical judgment, clear communication, collaboration, and a solutions-oriented approach. About the Role As Senior Commercial Counsel, you will advise on the commercial transactions that support our mission and day-to-day operations.

Success requires sound judgment, strong execution, attention to detail, and a collaborative approach to working with teams across the company. About the Work • Lead commercial transactions from intake through post-signature management, partnering with business and technical teams to develop strategies, negotiate with counterparties, and finalize agreements. • Advise on legal and business risks, explain complex terms clearly, and recommend practical, risk-conscious solutions aligned with company objectives. • Support matters across supply chain; business development, product, and partnerships; intellectual property and licensing; data privacy and security; marketing; real estate and facilities; and other areas as needed. • Train cross-functional teams on commercial contracting requirements, best practices, and effective risk management. • Help implement and launch a new contract lifecycle management (CLM) system, including templates, playbooks, fallback positions, workflows, and related process improvements. • Streamline and automate contracting processes to improve efficiency, consistency, and visibility. • Serve as a legal “utility player,” contributing beyond commercial transactions in areas such as intellectual property, privacy, marketing, real estate, and product- or customer-facing matters. • Apply AI tools thoughtfully to improve legal workflows, processes, and team efficiency. About You • 7+ years of legal experience in a fast-growing, technology-focused company, top-tier law firm, or a combination of both, with significant experience independently handling complex commercial transactions. • Exceptional drafting, negotiation, communication, and stakeholder-management skills, including the ability to produce
