What You'll Do
We are seeking an experienced attorney with 7+ years of legal practice to become part of our dynamic and collaborative legal team. The ideal candidate will have a background in technology law, be highly analytical, and eager to learn about our products and business operations. This role will involve engaging with various projects in a fast-paced environment, focusing on complex data licensing, customer sales, and automotive OEM agreements.
As a senior individual contributor, you will devise practical and innovative solutions for complex transactions that propel our business forward. Strong drafting and communication skills are essential, as we empower our in-house counsel to take ownership of deals. You will develop the expertise to mitigate and assume risk, without deferring to others on business decisions.
Our customers leverage our SDKs and APIs to develop their location-aware applications, resulting in sales agreements that are more intricate than those typically found in enterprise or SaaS software. We believe effective legal advice requires a deep understanding of our specific customer use cases and technical implementations. This role demands a thoughtful approach to complex data licenses and sales/OEM agreements, and while collaboration is key, this position does not involve managing direct reports.
We prioritize the continuous improvement of operational processes and the updating of legal forms to scale our legal team efficiently, supporting our rapidly growing technology company. Experience in a pre-IPO environment will be highly advantageous.
