About the Role
Saronic Technologies is seeking a Senior Corporate Counsel to lead M&A and strategic transactions. This role will be the legal point of contact for acquisitions, investments, and joint ventures, working closely with the Corporate Development team from initiation through integration. The position requires owning deals end-to-end, including structuring, diligence, negotiation, and post-closing absorption, as well as supporting financings, equity, governance, and entity management.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the lead lawyer and legal point of contact for Corporate Development on acquisitions, strategic and minority investments, joint ventures and acqui-hires.
- Triage the deal pipeline with Corp Dev, providing early, practical views on structure, legal risk and deal-breakers.
- Draft and negotiate NDAs, LOIs, term sheets, purchase and merger agreements, disclosure schedules, transition services agreements and ancillary documents.
- Advise on deal structure and economics, including stock vs. asset deals, earnouts, escrows and holdbacks, rollover equity, and retention and key-employee arrangements.
- Run diligence end to end, including building scoping memos, managing the data room, coordinating subject-matter experts, and translating findings into deal protections and integration actions.
- Lead acquisitions of industrial and manufacturing assets, coordinating real estate, environmental, permitting and workforce issues.
- Partner with Corp Dev, Finance and People on integration, including Day 1 readiness, contract assignments and consents, entity cleanup, policy rollout, and 30/60/100-day legal integration plans.
- Build Saronic’s M&A infrastructure, including template documents, a diligence request list and playbook, an approval and signing matrix, deal checklists, and post-mortems.
- Support equity and debt financings, including preferred stock rounds, convertible instruments, venture debt and credit facilities.
- Support board and committee operations, including materials, minutes, written consents and approvals for transactions and equity issuances.
- Help manage securities compliance for a late-stage private company.
- Support equity administration with Finance and People and subsidiary and entity management across jurisdictions.
- Be a trusted, embedded partner to Corporate Development, Finance, Tax and People and to senior leadership on high-stakes decisions.
- Translate legal risk into clear business recommendations, giving answers and options rather than memos.
Requirements
- Juris Doctor from an accredited law school and active membership in good standing with at least one U.S. state bar.
- 8+ years of corporate and transactional experience, including meaningful time in the M&A practice of a top-tier law firm.
- A track record of leading M&A deals end to end as the primary day-to-day lawyer, from LOI through closing and integration.
- Strong grounding in private company equity, venture financings and corporate governance.
