📋 Description

• Build a legal function that can keep pace with a company growing in every direction at once. • Work across commercial contracts, FinTech, artificial intelligence, employment law, IP strategy, litigation and product counseling. • Ensure breadth and ownership across multiple practice areas and grow into a global legal role as the company scales. • Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements including vendor contracts, SaaS agreements, partnership deals, NDAs, and data processing agreements. • Support Slice's payments and FinTech initiatives by advising on payment processing agreements, money transmission considerations, and financial services partnerships. • Support the People team on employment matters across US and international jurisdictions. • Advise on hiring, terminations, leave policies, workplace investigations, and employment agreements. • Counsel the business on trademark, copyright, and trade secret matters as Slice expands its brand. • Manage active litigation and dispute matters, directing outside counsel and strategy. • Draft board resolutions, written consents, and governance documents in support of the Head of Legal.

🎯 Requirements

• JD from an accredited law school and active bar admission in New York or another US jurisdiction. • 5–10 years of legal experience, with significant time at a top-tier law firm — BigLaw or highly regarded boutique. • Interest in negotiating complex agreements without becoming a blocker. • Genuine curiosity across practice areas; you're as comfortable outside your lane as in it. • In-house experience at a technology company is strongly preferred — you understand the pace, the context, and what it means to be a business partner. • Comfort operating independently and making sound judgment calls without always having a senior attorney in the room. • Excellent written and verbal communication skills — you're precise, clear, and know how to explain legal concepts to non-lawyers. • A self-starter mindset — you identify problems before they become fires, and you bring solutions, not just issues.
