ABOUT THIS ROLELVT's legal function sits at the intersection of rapid technological innovation and enterprise execution. Reporting directly to the Director, Assistant General Counsel (Product & Privacy), the Commercial & Privacy Counsel will act as a high-impact, individual contributor safeguarding our scaling operations. You will serve as a trusted legal partner to product, engineering, and commercial teams-navigating the complexities of data privacy, cutting-edge AI regulations, and sophisticated enterprise transactions to enable rapid, compliant business growth.
This role is based full-time in-office out of our headquarters in American Fork, Utah.
ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES- Product & Privacy Advisory: Partner directly with Product and Engineering teams to provide proactive legal guidance on privacy, data protection, and consumer protection frameworks throughout the product development lifecycle.
- Commercial Transaction Management: Structure, draft, and negotiate complex commercial agreements across the product portfolio, including Data Processing Agreements (DPAs), Master Services Agreements (MSAs), Statements of Work (SOWs), and strategic vendor partnerships.
- Regulatory Risk Mitigation: Proactively monitor, analyze, and translate emerging state, federal, and international privacy laws and AI regulations into actionable, business-minded operational strategies.
- Trust & Compliance Enablement: Streamline the commercial pipeline by reviewing and responding to sophisticated customer privacy questionnaires, security reviews, RFPs, and legal due diligence inquiries.
- Privacy Program Governance: Support the continuous evolution of LVT's privacy infrastructure, driving cross-functional data mapping, policy updates, and compliance initiatives across the enterprise.
- Legal Operations Scale: Design, refine, and implement scalable internal legal templates and playbooks to accelerate deal velocity while maintaining rigorous risk standards.
- AI Integration: Leverage and evaluate modern AI tools to optimize contract review, legal research, and drafting workflows, driving maximum efficiency within a lean legal team.
OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE- Privacy-Fluent Professional: Possesses deep, practical knowledge of major privacy frameworks (e.g., CCPA/CPRA, GDPR) and a proven track record of translating legal compliance into functional engineering requirements.
- Strategic Commercial Negotiator: Demonstrates extensive experience managing commercial technology agreements, with a sharp ability to find balanced, commercial solutions rather than just identifying legal risk.
- Autonomous Operator: Operates effectively as a self-starter who thrives in fast-paced environments, taking complete ownership of ambiguous problems from discovery through execution.
- Business-Minded Advisor: Possesses strong commercial acumen, maintaining a clear distinction between theoretical legal risks and material business exposure to deliver pragmatic counsel.
- Articulate Communicator: Exceptional capability to distill complex legal, regulatory, and technical concepts into clear, plain-language guidance for non-legal stakeholders.
- In-House Ready (Preferred): Prior in-house experience within a high-growth technology environment, understanding how to operate as a true collaborative partner to revenue and product teams.
- Technical Aptitude (Preferred): Comfortable diving into technical architectural details and data flows alongside engineering teams to effectively conduct product counseling.
- Tech-Forward Mindset (Preferred): Enthusiastic about adopting and leveraging generative AI legal tools to multiply output and streamline day-to-day legal operations.
- Credentials: Holds a J.D. from an accredited institution with 4-6 years of relevant legal experience. Must possess an active Utah bar license or qualify for a Utah limited in-house counsel license. Professional certifications (e.g., CIPP/US, AIGP) are highly preferred.
