Overview

A digital health scale-up is seeking a Senior Attorney to join their legal team during a period of rapid growth and market expansion. The organization has successfully launched multiple platforms and products, raised over $100 million in venture capital funding, reached profitability, and is experiencing over 100% year-over-year growth.

This remote role requires quarterly travel to the Atlanta office and reports directly to the General Counsel. The Senior Attorney will act as a key legal partner across the business, focusing on commercial and strategic initiatives, supporting deals, partnerships, and regulatory considerations that drive growth.

Responsibilities

• Provide legal guidance on strategic business initiatives such as market expansion and new payor channel development
• Conduct regulatory review and analysis to support commercial decision-making across multiple jurisdictions
• Support compliance initiatives and help maintain the company's regulatory posture as operations scale

• Build a reputation for high throughput on commercial work, delivering contracts and legal requests with speed and precision
• Become the primary contact for managing day-to-day legal priorities and workflow
• Prove yourself as a credible second-in-command to the General Counsel, capable of independently representing the legal function and handling escalations

• Experience preferably in a highly regulated industry such as healthcare

• Trusted for early involvement in commercial conversations due to sound judgment
• Comfortable using AI and technology tools to manage contracts and legal workflows, with clear understanding of when human judgment is essential
• Ability to translate legal risk into clear business language without oversimplification
• High emotional intelligence and adaptable communication style to build trust across diverse stakeholders
• Bias toward solutions and getting deals done, with sound judgment on critical legal boundaries
• Experience building repeatable legal processes such as playbooks, templates, and escalation frameworks
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity, managing high volume without sacrificing quality, and expanding role responsibilities

Preferred Qualifications
