  • Work with various global partner teams on a wide range of special projects that require legal support
  • Create and maintain enablement materials such legal playbooks, FAQs, training, and self-service materials for the Sales team and other relevant cross-functional partners

What We're Looking For:

  • Admitted to the New York Bar or eligible for Registered In-House Counsel eligible
  • 7+ years of combined experience practicing as a commercial attorney within a law firm or software technology company, including 3+ years in-house commercial legal experience at a software technology company
