📋 Description

• Own negotiation and execution of all commercial agreements—MSAs, SaaS subscription agreements, DPAs, BAAs, and NDAs—with Fieldguide's enterprise accounting firm customers • Build and maintain a contract playbook with tiered positions by clause type and a standard paper library so nothing starts from scratch; leverage AI / Agentic solutions to scale legal operations, build institutional memory that compounds in value over time • Own AI and data licensing negotiations such as data use rights, model risk provisions, output ownership, IP indemnification, and maintain Fieldguide's AI commercial policy framework and open source compliance program • Review and maintain employment agreements, contractor agreements, and offer letters; advise People team on multi-state and international compliance • Serve as the company's primary legal liaison to the board on corporate governance matters, including board documentation, equity records, and corporate filings in coordination with Finance

🎯 Requirements

• J.D. from an accredited law school; active bar admission in good standing • 8-10 years of legal experience, including 3-4 years at a law firm working across many client types and deal structures, followed by 5-6 years in-house at a B2B SaaS company, preferably at Series B-D • Deep fluency in commercial SaaS contracts (MSAs, DPAs, BAAs, SLAs), with substantive AI and data licensing experience: you have negotiated AI vendor agreements, advised on model and IP risk, and understand the underlying technology well enough to negotiate it, not just the legal wrapper • Demonstrated data privacy experience with GDPR, CCPA, and SOC 2 legal obligations; credible in DPA negotiations with enterprise customers • Track record of building legal infrastructure from scratch: contract templates, playbooks, and CLM implementations, or compliance programs that created institutional memory and reduced cycle time • Comfortable operating as the only lawyer in the building—approaches legal risk as a trade-off problem, not a binary; delivers practical, business-oriented guidance under time pressure • Experience at a B2B SaaS company serving professional services, fintech, or regulated industries is a plus; familiarity with agentic AI or AI infrastructure agreements is a meaningful advantage.
