About Us:

We're on a mission to make it possible for every person, team, and company to be able to tailor their software to solve any problem and take on any challenge.

  • 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
  • Ability to confidently and independently manage and negotiate SaaS agreements with a wide variety of customers
  • Strong understanding of cloud services and general SaaS business practices, and a willingness to dive into Notion's product offerings, operational processes, and security and privacy practices and policies in order to build a strong foundation for providing support across all relevant lines of business
  • Resilience, resourcefulness, the ability to directly interact and build meaningful relationships and trust with internal and external clients and leaders, and the ability to make recommendations and decisions with imperfect facts
  • Experience negotiating with technology and professional services vendors
  • Excellent drafting, written and verbal communication skills
