About the role
You will work on some of the most exciting and challenging legal issues that impact fast-growth, late-stage private technology companies. We will require a highly qualified, team-oriented transactional attorney with experience in VC backed companies, M&A and public company securities filings. Strong preference for individuals with significant VC and M&A experience.
Collaborating closely with business executives, corporate development, legal, tax, HR and finance department colleagues, your responsibilities will include (i) corporate governance, (ii) debt and equity financing, (iii) securities compliance, and (iv) other significant strategic transactions. You will also be responsible for providing prompt, incisive, and practical advice to the business as we rapidly expand the business through international expansion, employment, and corporate acquisitions.
