Descrição

• Own and drive Marqeta's quarterly and annual SEC reporting cycle — 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K filings — in close partnership with Finance, outside counsel, and the Disclosure Committee. • Serve as a primary author and coordinator of the annual proxy statement and related shareholder meeting materials, including CD&A, governance disclosures, and Rule 14a-8 shareholder proposals. • Draft, review, and coordinate all Form 8-K filings for material events, including executive appointments, earnings releases, equity offerings, and corporate transactions. • Oversee Section 16 reporting obligations (Forms 4, 144) for all executive officers and directors, working closely with the Deputy General Counsel and outside counsel. • Serve as a key support for Marqeta's Disclosure Committee, coordinating cross-functional review and certification processes with Finance, IR, and executive leadership. • Monitor and advise on SEC rulemaking developments, NYSE listing standards, and proxy advisory guidance (ISS/Glass Lewis) that may affect Marqeta's disclosure obligations. • Support the Deputy General Counsel in staffing the Marqeta Board of Directors and its committees — including the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Payments Innovation Committee, and Nominating & Governance Committee. • Prepare board and committee materials, including legal memos, management presentations, and action items. Coordinate materials through Marqeta's secure board portal (Diligent). • Draft and finalize minutes for board and committee meetings; manage DocuSign execution and maintenance of board records. • Assist in managing corporate governance formalities, including director questionnaires, annual certifications, committee charters, and board policies. • Support executive session and director independence assessments in coordination with outside counsel. • Administer and enforce Marqeta's Insider Trading Policy, including managing trading window communications, pre-clearance requests, blackout periods, and designation of insiders. • Oversee Rule 10b5-1 plan adoptions, modifications, and terminations in compliance with SEC requirements, including the updated cooling-off period rules. • Partner with the People/Total Rewards team on equity plan administration matters requiring legal oversight, including EIP and ESPP matters with securities compliance implications. • Support equity-related disclosures in SEC filings, proxy statements, and shareholder communications. • Provide legal support for corporate transactions, including equity offerings, reverse stock split mechanics, and other capital markets matters as they arise. • Partner with outside counsel on corporate governance matters arising under Delaware law and Marqeta's certificate of incorporation and bylaws. • Review and advise on indemnification agreements for directors and officers. • Support subsidiary governance, including maintenance of records and signing authorities in coordination with the global Legal/People/Finance teams. • Advise on general corporate matters and serve as a knowledgeable resource across the Corporate Legal team on securities and governance questions. • Build and maintain strong working relationships with Finance, IR, People, and the executive team to ensure legal work is integrated into business processes — not bolted on after the fact. • Serve as a practical, solutions-oriented legal partner to business stakeholders — able to distill complex securities law obligations into clear, actionable guidance. • Manage and coordinate outside counsel relationships and costs, including relationships with outside counsel on securities, governance, and M&A matters. • Identify and build process improvements across the Corporate Legal function, including materials management, governance calendaring, and compliance workflows.

🎯 Requisitos

• J.D. degree and active membership in good standing in at least one U.S. state bar (California or New York preferred). • 10–15 years of legal experience, with a meaningful and demonstrable focus on public company securities, SEC disclosure, and corporate governance. • Substantive, hands-on experience drafting SEC filings — proxy statements, 10-Ks, 10-Qs, and 8-Ks. • Experience supporting a public company board of directors and its committees, including preparation of materials and minutes. • Strong working knowledge of insider trading rules, Section 16 compliance, and equity compensation disclosure. • Top law firm experience preferred. In-house experience at a public company in a corporate or securities function required. • Ability to operate independently, manage multiple time-sensitive workstreams, and escalate appropriately in a lean, high-performing team environment. • Excellent written communication skills — this role requires clear, precise legal drafting and the ability to write for directors, executives, and the investing public.
