Director

Summary

Requirements

• You have a JD or foreign equivalent with membership in at least one state bar
• You have 10+ years of legal experience, with a mix of in-house and law firm experience advising SaaS or other technology companies, preferably including experience taking a company public and advising on corporate compliance
• You have deep knowledge of corporate and securities law, with IPO experience preferred; a strong understanding of compliance program development and implementation; excellent communication and relationship-building skills; high integrity; and an ability to balance strategic thinking with attention to detail
• You’re flexible, resourceful, and solution-oriented. While focused on your areas of expertise, you are interested in developing a generalist’s approach to in-house legal practice, so you aren’t afraid to work in new areas

• Drive the legal compliance “roadmap,” identifying compliance priorities, overseeing the Company Code of Conduct, project-managing new initiatives, and creating compliance-related tools
• Nurture an internal “culture of compliance” that affirms that the Company follows the rules, keeps our employees safe, and respects the rights and values of our customers
• Support internal investigations of potential compliance issues; create and deliver compliance policies and training
• Build and maintain processes and infrastructure, such as playbooks, templates, metrics, and self-serve tools, to help scale the legal function
