Product Counsel

About the role

As Product Counsel, you'll be an early, versatile member of our founding legal team, counseling across a broad range of functions as the business grows. This is a generalist role with real breadth. You'll support security, compliance, and go-to-market needs, handle customer-facing legal matters, and help lay the foundation for a larger counseling team over time. It's a role for someone who's energized by range, comfortable with ambiguity, and excited to build durable infrastructure rather than inherit it. This role initially reports to the General Counsel.

What you'll do.

• Advise and support our security team on legal matters.

• Handle customer notifications and related customer-facing legal communications.

• Support compliance efforts across the organization.

• Provide generalist counseling across functions as needs arise, including support for Product, Security, Privacy, and other teams.

• Help build the foundational processes, templates, and infrastructure for a scaling product counseling function.

What we're looking for.

• 9+ years of relevant in-house or law firm experience.

• A JD and membership in at least one US state bar.

• Breadth across privacy, security, compliance, and product counseling.

• Comfort operating as a generalist and flexing across whatever lands on legal's desk.

• Prior experience working in a hyperscaling, fast moving environment.

• A builder's mindset suited to an early-stage, foundational role.

• Strong judgment and the ability to work independently in ambiguity.

• AI-forward, builder’s mindset, with a demonstrated ability to use AI tools to streamline daily workflows and accelerate efficiency.

Total compensation for this role also includes meaningful equity in a fast-growing startup, along with a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package. Base salary is determined by a range of factors including individual qualifications, experience, skills, market data, and work location.
