The posting

Leidos is seeking a dynamic, experienced, and business-oriented attorney to serve as Assistant General Counsel – Privacy & AI. Reporting to the SVP/Deputy General Counsel, Data Protection & Technology (and Chief Privacy Officer), this position provides strategic and operational legal support across the most pressing legal issues in artificial intelligence, data privacy, data governance, and incident response.

This role offers hands-on involvement across the full lifecycle of privacy and AI matters—including issue spotting and risk assessment, solution design, AI governance and responsible implementation, and incident response. The successful candidate will advise corporate operations and customer-facing business teams, supporting highly regulated, mission-critical environments where responsible AI practices and data protection are foundational to trust and contract performance.

The attorney will partner closely with stakeholders across Human Resources, CIO Services/Information Security, Contracts & Supply Chain, and business sector leadership. The position requires strong legal judgment, business acumen, and the ability to translate complex regulatory and contractual requirements into practical guidance for technical and operational teams.

This is an in-person position with 3 or more days onsite work required. Candidates must live within commuting distance to our headquarters in Reston, Virginia.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Provide practical, risk-based legal advice on artificial intelligence, data privacy, and emerging technologies across corporate and customer-facing operations.
  • Advise on AI governance, including AI use-case risk review, vendor and third-party AI diligence, development of AI policies and standards, and compliance with emerging AI laws and frameworks.
  • Advise stakeholders on compliance with U.S. and international AI, privacy, and data protection laws, regulations, standards, and contractual obligations, including government contracting requirements and flow-down provisions.
  • Review, draft, and negotiate privacy and data protection provisions in customer, vendor, subcontractor, and technology agreements, including data processing agreements, Business Associate Agreements, and data security addenda.
  • Interpret and operationalize complex regulatory and contractual requirements, translating them into clear, actionable guidance for business and technical teams.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders to manage and mitigate data breaches and other security incidents, including advising on notification, reporting, and related contractual and regulatory obligations and managing outside counsel as appropriate.
  • Support the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of the company’s privacy and AI governance programs, ensuring alignment with information security and other governance and compliance functions.

Education

  • Juris Doctor from a U.S. accredited law school
  • Membership in the Virginia State Bar or the ability to become registered in-house counsel in Virginia.

Experience

  • Minimum of 6+ years of legal experience advising on data privacy, artificial intelligence, technology, and/or information security matters, preferably in a law firm, in-house, or government environment.
  • Working knowledge of U.S. privacy and data protection laws and frameworks (e.g., HIPAA, state privacy laws) and familiarity with international regimes such as UK GDPR.
  • Experience advising on AI deployment and risk, including AI use-case review, vendor diligence, or policy development.
  • Experience advising on incident response and data breaches, including notification and reporting considerations.
  • Experience reviewing, drafting, and negotiating privacy, AI, and technology-related contractual provisions.
  • Familiarity with government contracting environments and related regulatory or flow-down requirements preferred.

Personal Attributes

  • Superior written and verbal communication skills
  • Excellent organizational skills
  • Agility and willingness to work on a broad range of matters
  • Self-motivated and ability to work independently without extensive supervision
  • Ability to translate legal requirements into practical guidance for non-lawyers

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
