Reporting to the Chief Legal Officer, you'll own corporate and transactional legal work as the company scales. This is a senior individual contributor role focused on building the legal and governance infrastructure of a high-growth, pre-IPO company.
Key responsibilities include: facilitating financing and strategic transactions (equity/debt raises, credit facilities, capital markets activity) from structuring through close; counseling on M&A and strategic transactions including diligence, LOI/NDA/purchase agreement drafting and negotiation; building governance and compliance infrastructure for public company readiness; supporting board governance (materials, notices, agendas, minutes, resolutions); overseeing entity management across the corporate structure; building securities compliance policies and procedures; partnering with Corporate Development, Finance, and Compliance on transaction strategy and risk management; creating templates, playbooks, and internal processes to scale the legal function; and managing relationships with outside counsel.
You'll need a JD from an accredited law school and active bar membership. The role requires 3-9+ years of corporate, transactional, and securities law experience, with in-house experience strongly preferred. Financing, M&A, and corporate governance expertise is essential. IPO readiness and public company/SEC reporting experience are valuable but not required. Healthcare or regulated-industry experience is helpful but not required. You should have strong judgment on risk versus velocity, excellent negotiation and drafting skills, and the ability to manage complex cross-functional transactions on tight timelines. Must be based in the United States.
