You will join a creative and solutions-oriented team that collaborates internally with teams at Scale and externally with our customers. We are looking for a relentlessly curious, deliberately open-minded, pragmatic, and action-oriented commercial attorney who can negotiate complex agreements and effectively advise on legal risk - all while being a great teammate. This is an individual contributor role with significant scope and visibility that will run deals from end-to-end, collaborate with high level internal clients, and help shape Scale's commercial legal function as it scales with the business.

You will: • Draft, review, and negotiate master services agreements, statements of work and order forms with autonomous driving and robotics companies, working closely with our Sales organization to close revenue deals. • Work directly with leadership to shape the business and legal strategy for this business unit. • Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of other agreements, including partnership, reseller and vendor agreements as well as DPAs. • Assess legal risk and give the business clear, practical guidance to help the business make informed decisions. • Provide hands-on legal support to sales, product, and other cross-functional teams. • Design, implement, and iterate on policies and processes to manage legal and business risk on a global scale. Ideally you'd have: • JD and a member of the California Bar in good standing. • At least 9+ years of combined law firm and in-house experience with training in commercial agreements, data licensing, and intellectual property. • Passion for partnering with Sales and closing revenue deals. • Experience with drafting and negotiating complex data licensing, services or technology agreements. • An ability to communicate clearly with business and technical audiences and effectively translate legal concepts for non-lawyers. • Roll-up-your-sleeves attitude to tackle projects large and small and a collaborative, low-ego approach to working across the organization. • Deep interest in artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicles, robotics, and the broader AI landscape.
