    Strong background in commercial contracts, employment structures, and corporate legal operations

    Deep knowledge of data privacy and consumer protection regulations (GDPR, CCPA, UK GDPR, and equivalents in Japan and South Korea)

    Experience drafting and localizing user-facing legal documents (Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, etc.)

    Strong business judgment with the ability to provide pragmatic, risk-based recommendations

    Excellent communication skills in English and experience collaborating across multidisciplinary, international teams







Benefits



  • Opportunity to build and own the legal and privacy function within a global digital product company

    Direct collaboration with founders and senior leadership
