Required
Stedi is hiring a Senior Legal Counsel to sit at the center of how we grow. Every new customer, payer connection, and partnership runs through a contract, and you’ll own the bulk of that deal flow. Your counterparties will range from fast-moving healthtech startups to established industry players and national payers. Healthtech experience is a plus, but not required – we value strong legal judgment, curiosity, and the ability to learn a new industry quickly.
We ship new products constantly, and the deals that follow bring new structures, new pricing models, and meaningful HIPAA and data-use considerations. You’ll be close to all of it. As the business continues to grow, so will the role, and we expect you to take on new areas as needs arise and as your interests take you.
You’ll join a small, effective Legal team with a broad mandate. We keep up with a fast-growing, highly regulated business by investing in good systems and tools (AI among them), so our time goes to the work that takes a lawyer’s judgment. That means every person on the team has outsized ownership and impact, and you’ll help improve the tools as well as use them. If you have the talent and drive to help build a world-class legal function alongside experienced mentors at a rapidly scaling tech company, we want to talk.
You’re bar-admitted, have several years of commercial contracting, transactional, or regulatory counseling experience, and are ready to take on a role with broad ownership.
You’ve handled complex legal matters end to end, whether in BigLaw, at a high-growth company, or both.
You’ve used AI tools, CLM platforms, or other technology to make legal work faster and better, and you want to push that further.
You can explain complex issues in plain language, write clearly, and communicate confidently with executives, lawyers, regulators, procurement staff, engineers, and everyone in between.
You’re comfortable with high-volume work, ambiguity, and shifting priorities, and you maintain high quality through effective systems and habits.
You’re a generalist at heart. When something unfamiliar lands on your desk, you’d rather figure it out than refer it out.
You move fast, operate with precision, and follow through until the job is done. You thrive in an environment where clarity, accountability, and urgency matter.
