Required
Experience: 5 to 8 years of combined law-firm and in-house experience, ideally including time at a SaaS, payments/fintech, or other regulated technology company. We value demonstrated breadth and judgment over an exact title or year count, and we welcome more senior candidates, who may be considered for the Lead Counsel title.
Credentials: JD from an accredited law school and an active license to practice law in at least one US state.
Autonomy: A track record of operating independently, owning matters end to end, and being trusted to make and defend judgment calls with limited oversight.
Commercial depth: Strong command of technology and commercial contracting, with the instinct to balance risk and speed.
Generalist range: Comfort moving across commercial, regulatory, privacy, corporate, and employment questions, and the resourcefulness to get smart fast on something unfamiliar.
Business partnership: A practical, solutions-oriented style; you make complex issues clear to non-lawyers and are known as an enabler, not a gatekeeper.
Composure in ambiguity: You do your best work with incomplete information, competing priorities, and a fast-moving business.

How we take care of our team
Our business is deeply immersed in an industry that’s centered around helping people feel their best, so we know that taking care of yourself isn’t selfish; it’s essential.
