OUR MISSION

SPAN IS ENABLING ELECTRIFICATION FOR ALL ⚡

WE ARE A MISSION-DRIVEN COMPANY DESIGNING, BUILDING, AND DEPLOYING PRODUCTS THAT ELECTRIFY THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT, REDUCE CARBON EMISSIONS, AND SLOW THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE.

- Decarbonization is the process to reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions, especially carbon dioxide, from entering our atmosphere.

AT SPAN, WE BELIEVE IN:

- Enabling homes and vehicles powered by clean energy

- Making electrification upgrades possible

- Building more resilient homes with reliable backup

- Designing a flexible and distributed electrical grid

THE ROLE

To facilitate our rapid growth, we are seeking a passionate and experienced Associate General Counsel to provide strategic and tactical legal counseling on a broad range of issues impacting our sales, engineering, manufacturing and supply, and customer support teams. We are a small, agile legal team seeking a strong transactional attorney looking to develop a broad skillset in an entrepreneurial, roll up your sleeves environment. You are equally comfortable advising on negotiation strategy as contributing to the administrative tasks necessary to keep a legal department running efficiently. You are more utility infielder/swiss army knife than position player/specialty tool, but you are ready to add immediate value in at least one of the following areas: commercial contracting, intellectual property, privacy/security, supply chain, M&A/Project Finance. You are passionate about electrification and working with mission-driven colleagues, and thrive diving into unfamiliar territory. This role reports directly to the General Counsel.

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.
