Corporate Counsel

Join Spectro Cloud, a rapidly growing global infrastructure software company, as a Senior Corporate Counsel. In this high-impact role, you will support commercial transactions, corporate matters, privacy, employment, and IP. You will partner directly with various teams and have the opportunity to shape the Legal function. The ideal candidate will have 4-8 years of post-JD legal experience, strong commercial instincts, and the ability to operate effectively with remote teams.

• Draft, review, and negotiate a broad mix of commercial agreements, including customer subscription agreements, partner and reseller agreements, vendor and procurement contracts, NDAs, and DPAs.
• Serve as a day-to-day legal partner to sales, finance, procurement, and revenue operations on deal structuring, contract questions, and escalations.
• Support corporate matters including entity management, board and stockholder governance, equity administration, and financings, working closely with the Head of Legal and outside counsel.
• We are looking for someone who is comfortable making decisions, knows when to escalate, can adapt quickly to changing priorities and needs, and treats the legal function as a business enabler rather than a checkpoint
• We are looking for a problem solver who is comfortable making practical, risk-calibrated calls with incomplete information, and who is willing to roll up their sleeves and go a step beyond the four corners of the role to move things forward
• Strong commercial instincts — able to translate legal risk into practical business advice and move a deal forward
• Comfort operating with ambiguity, competing priorities, and shifting deadlines — and the judgment to prioritize when not everything can get done
• Experience leveraging AI systems and technologies
• Working knowledge of US privacy laws (CCPA/CPRA and other state regimes) and EU/UK GDPR as applied to a B2B SaaS business
• 4–8 years of post-JD legal experience, with a meaningful mix of top-tier law firm and in-house experience preferred
• Strong organizational skills and a track record of managing a high-volume workload without dropping balls
• Demonstrated experience drafting and negotiating SaaS / technology commercial agreements, including MSAs, DPAs, and order forms
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain legal concepts to non-lawyers in plain English
• The ability to operate effectively with remote teams and manage your time efficiently
• High integrity, sound judgment, and a sense of humor
• Self-starter who is willing to take initiative beyond the strict bounds of the role to help the company move forward
• J.D. from an accredited US law school and active membership in good standing of at least one US state bar
• In-house experience at a venture-backed B2B SaaS or infrastructure software company
• Experience supporting an open-source software business, including OSS license review
• Familiarity with cloud, Kubernetes, AI/ML, or container ecosystems — enough to talk to engineering and product without a translator
• Experience supporting US federal and public-sector sales motions (e.g., FedRAMP, GSA, DFARS / FAR flow-downs)
• Experience with international commercial transactions and cross-border data transfer frameworks (SCCs, UK IDTA)
• Experience using contract lifecycle management (CLM) tooling and building self-serve legal workflows
• Experience supporting corporate development activity (M&A, strategic investments, partnerships)
• We don’t expect the ideal candidate to check every box, but the items below are what we look for when reviewing candidates. Do not let this discourage you from applying
