- Negotiate terms to align with customer contract commitments, ensuring capacity, service levels, security, and data protection obligations are met.

- Develop templates, playbooks, and scalable workflows for infrastructure dealmaking to ensure repeatability and support growth.
- Manage enterprise commercial agreements, including master agreements, order forms, data processing terms, security exhibits, and NDAs, serving as the legal point of contact for Sales.
- Support go-to-market and partnership deals, such as collaboration, reseller, and co-sell structures.
- Build templates, playbooks, and scalable workflows for sales deals to ensure repeatability and clear escalation paths.
- Manage procurement transactions across the company, establishing request, review, and approval processes, baseline terms, and tooling.
- Develop and maintain the company's library of commercial and vendor templates and default negotiating positions for scalable processes.
Requirements
- Juris Doctor (JD) degree and an active bar license in good standing.
- Minimum of 5 years of experience in commercial and technology transactions.
- Substantial in-house experience at an infrastructure company.

- Working knowledge of regulatory regimes (EU AI Act, EU Data Act, DORA).
- Working knowledge of security terms (data processing agreements, security addenda).
- Familiarity with export controls and regulatory requirements (e.g., FCPA, anti-bribery, anti-corruption).
- Ability to communicate legal and technical points clearly to non-lawyers.
- Comfort working independently in a fast-moving legal team, with sound judgment for ownership and escalation.
- Desire to learn and build with AI tools for self-sufficient and rapid operation.
