The role in a nutshell:

We are seeking a Senior Counsel to serve as a key legal partner to our Go-To-Market organization. This is a highly visible, customer-facing role at the center of the business, enabling revenue growth while protecting the company.

The ideal candidate is a strong commercial attorney with significant drafting experience who thrives in the energy and intensity of a high-growth company. You are proactive, business-minded, and comfortable operating in fast-moving environments. You enjoy partnering closely with Sales and cross-functional teams, negotiating directly with sophisticated customer counsel, and taking full ownership of transactions from start to finish.

In addition to deep commercial expertise, this role requires experience navigating open source licensing considerations and negotiating with highly regulated customers.

What you’ll do:

• Serve as a primary legal partner to the Go-To-Market team, supporting customer transactions from initial structuring through execution

• Draft, review, and negotiate SaaS agreements, enterprise customer agreements, professional services agreements, NDAs, and partner/channel agreements

• 5+ years of commercial legal experience, ideally combining law firm and in-house technology company experience

• Strong experience drafting and negotiating SaaS, subscription, and professional services agreements

• Working knowledge of open source licensing and compliance considerations

• Experience in cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, or related technology sectors strongly preferred

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to build strong working relationships across Sales, Product, Security, and executive stakeholders

• Sound business judgment and the ability to balance legal risk with commercial objectives
