The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Handle a high volume of commercial agreements from drafting and negotiation through to signing, giving practical, deal-focused guidance to business stakeholders. The role also covers building reusable resources for the legal team and helping onboard the next hire, with a route into leading the commercial function.

What you'll do

  • Negotiate a broad range of commercial agreements independently, including service, data, vendor and partnership contracts.
  • Draft new agreements and standard templates quickly.
  • Advise business stakeholders directly over chat and calls with practical guidance that moves deals forward.
  • Turn negotiation positions and review standards into shared playbooks and AI-assisted workflows.
  • Help onboard and manage the next commercial counsel hire.

What we're looking for

  • Roughly three years of commercial work at the associate level, with a shorter track record accepted for outstanding candidates who trained at highly regarded firms.
  • Lawyers coming from a law firm background who want an in-house career are a natural match, and attorneys already working in-house are considered if they stay hands-on rather than seeking management responsibility.
  • Ability to negotiate commercial deals independently and draft agreements quickly.
  • Breadth of experience across many contract and business types, not limited to one industry.
  • Strong working knowledge of market terms on liability, indemnity, IP, data and termination in technology deals, and the ability to explain them in plain language.
  • Regular use of AI tools in legal practice and willingness to turn judgment into playbooks and workflows.
  • A business-minded approach focused on helping clients get deals done, with comfort handling pushback from opposing counsel.
  • Active US bar membership in good standing, with California preferred and New York also considered.

Bonus points

  • Experience at a leading law firm.
  • Background in workforce law, data protection, or equity and governance work would broaden the portfolio a candidate can take on.

Compensation and benefits

  • Base salary: $170K to $220K per year
  • Equity
  • Health and dental coverage
  • Retirement plan

Location and work model

  • Remote (US)
  • Full-time employment
