About the role.

Solo.io is hiring a Director of Legal to lead our legal work in-house. You'll report to the CFO and work closely with the CEO and leadership team. The role is based in Boston or remote within the US.

You'll be the company's go-to legal partner across commercial contracts, employment, privacy, open source, corporate governance, and strategic matters. You'll handle most work directly and bring in outside counsel when a matter calls for it.

The ideal candidate has a strong commercial contracts background and wants broader exposure across commercial, employment and corporate law as a step toward a General Counsel role.

This role may require occasional travel

  • Review, draft and negotiate customer, partner, reseller and vendor agreements, NDAs and order forms with sales, finance and other teams. This is the heart of the role today.
  • Own our contract templates and playbooks. Update them for current market terms, including AI, data and security provisions.
  • Ensure legal is fast and streamlined. Utilize Ironclad, AI tools, and value added processes to streamline and help legal operate quickly and accurately

  • Advise on open source licensing, contributor agreements and our participation in open source foundations.
  • Manage outside counsel and the legal budget for specialized matters.

YOU MAY ALSO

  • Draft and negotiate employment documents, such as specialized offer letters and separation agreements.
  • Support People Ops on compensation, benefits, immigration and international employment matters.
  • Support corporate matters, including board materials, equity administration, entity management, and periodic financing or strategic transactions alongside outside counsel.
  • Help shape internal policies on AI use and governance.
  • Advise on trade compliance and export controls.
  • Review external communications with marketing, including press releases, the website and social media.

Job Requirements:

  • JD from an accredited law school and an active license to practice in at least one US state. You must be able to register as in-house counsel in Massachusetts.
  • 7–10 years of commercial legal experience at a law firm, in-house, or both. In-house experience at a software or SaaS company is strongly preferred.
  • Deep expertise drafting and negotiating enterprise software agreements, including SaaS, licensing, data processing and partner agreements.
  • Comfort working as a team of one. You'll own your work end to end and bring in outside counsel when needed.
  • Sound judgment on legal, commercial and reputational risk, with practical advice that keeps deals moving.
  • Strong organization and the ability to manage many matters at once across teams and time zones.
  • Clear, plain-English communication with engineers, sales leaders and executives.

NICE TO HAVE

  • Experience with open source licensing.
  • Experience with privacy and AI regulation, such as GDPR and the EU AI Act.
  • Exposure to corporate and transactional work, such as financings, equity or M&A.
  • Experience implementing contract management or AI legal tools.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
