The organization is seeking an experienced and versatile Associate General Counsel to join a growing legal team. This is a generalist in-house role with a substantive emphasis on commercial contracting and legal operations.

Responsibilities

Commercial Contracting

  • Serve as the primary legal partner for Sales and Customer Success, leading the drafting, negotiation, and lifecycle management of commercial agreements, including:
    • Master Service Agreements
    • Order Forms
    • Change Orders
    • Data Processing / Privacy Agreements
  • Support enterprise deals with capital partners and senior living operators.
  • Build and maintain contract playbooks, standard positions, and fallback frameworks to help the business operate efficiently and consistently while managing legal and commercial risk.
  • Advise on inbound vendor and partner agreements, including those involving sensitive data processing, AI subprocessors, or third-party integrations.

Legal Operations

  • Design and implement scalable processes, templates, and self-service resources to prevent Legal from becoming a bottleneck as the organization grows.
  • Own and administer contract lifecycle management (CLM), including template management, workflow automation, approval routing, and reporting.
  • Develop and maintain internal legal guides, FAQs, and training materials to empower business partners to make informed, compliant decisions independently—particularly for matters involving customer data and AI.
  • Track and report on contract pipeline and key legal metrics to help the team prioritize effectively and demonstrate business value.

AI Governance & Privacy Compliance

  • Partner with Product, Engineering, and the Regulatory Affairs team to ensure data handling practices and AI model governance considerations are appropriately reflected in commercial agreements and customer-facing representations.
  • Support development and maintenance of contractual frameworks governing AI use, including relevant provisions in customer MSAs, vendor agreements, and DPAs, in close coordination with the Regulatory Affairs Manager.
  • Stay current on key legal and regulatory developments in AI and healthcare data (including HIPAA and emerging AI frameworks) and flag contract-relevant implications to the legal team.

Cross-Functional Partnership

  • Triage and resolve legal issues across the organization, serving as a responsive, pragmatic legal resource for teams including Sales, Customer Success, Product, Engineering, Marketing, Finance, and People Operations.
  • Build Legal’s credibility and visibility through proactive communication, structured legal education, and a consistent approach focused on enabling business objectives.

Requirements

  • J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school; active bar membership in good standing in at least one U.S. jurisdiction.
  • 4–10 years of transactional legal experience with a substantive focus on commercial contracting, acquired in-house, at a law firm, or a combination of both.
  • Demonstrated experience building or significantly improving legal operations infrastructure, including standing up or materially enhancing a CLM platform, building contract playbooks, and designing scalable legal workflows.
  • Working knowledge of privacy law and healthcare data frameworks, including HIPAA.
  • Experience negotiating sophisticated enterprise agreements, including multi-party deals and agreements involving data processing or AI-powered services.
  • Practical, business-oriented approach to legal risk, helping stakeholders understand options and make well-informed decisions.
  • Comfort with ambiguity, pace, and evolving priorities in a high-growth technology company.

Preferred Qualifications
