Описание

This role involves owning all contracts end-to-end, building legal frameworks for the go-to-market team, owning data and model terms, leading data protection and AI compliance, and running security and compliance reviews.

Responsibilities

Own every customer contract end to end: draft, negotiate and close pilots, production agreements, data processing agreements, group agreements and partnerships, with marketplaces in Europe, the US, Asia, Africa and the Middle East
Build and own the legal frameworks for the go-to-market team: templates, standard and fallback positions, a negotiation playbook, and a register of every commitment and renewal date, so Sales closes standard deals without you and escalates the rest
Own the data and model terms in every agreement: what we process, what we learn, what we keep, in language a customer's product team can read
Lead data protection and AI compliance: GDPR, the Swiss FADP, the EU AI Act, US state privacy law and international transfers
Run security and compliance reviews with enterprise customers together with Engineering: the vendor due-diligence pack, DPIAs and transfer assessments, SOC 2, customer questionnaires
Be the business partner to the CEO, Sales, Customer Success and Engineering: in the deal room, not after it, making sure every contract reflects how the technology actually works and stays short
Handle the rest as it comes: corporate and investor documentation for our next round, employment across 10+ countries, intellectual property, and the judgment to know when to bring in outside counsel

Requirements

Qualified lawyer with a minimum of 6 years' experience: top-tier firm in M&A, venture or technology, then in-house at a technology company, ideally as its first lawyer
You have negotiated technology contracts across the table from enterprise counsel and closed them: licensing, API and SaaS agreements, data processing agreements, partnerships
You like simple and clear
You write contracts people actually read, you prefer a three-page offer to a thirty-page one, and you cut what does not matter
You understand the technology
You can read an API specification and a data flow and turn them into terms: what is processed, what is learned, what is owned, what is promised on performance
You know data protection cold: GDPR applied to a data-heavy product, international transfers, and what the EU AI Act will ask of us
Swiss law governs our contracts
You own your work
You take the pen, you decide which risks matter, you explain the rest in one sentence to non-lawyers, and you close
You know when outside counsel is worth the money and when it is not
You have worked cross-border, with US counterparties or US-law contracts, and you draft and negotiate in English at native level
You are eligible to work in Europe

We offer

Europe-based: 100k-120k EUR gross salary
Full remote flexibility across Europe

What Success Looks Like

3 months: You have read every signed contract and you know every commitment and renewal date. The register is yours. The go-to-market frameworks are in place: templates and playbook updated, and Sales closes standard deals without you. Every live customer is on the new contract stack. Standard deals need no lawyer: NDA, pilot and production agreement go out on your templates and come back signed. Data protection is in-house: the due-diligence pack is current
12 months: The CEO is out of contract negotiations. You lead every open one. Every customer is on one contract stack. No legacy terms, no surprises. Security and privacy reviews pass without a fight: the due-diligence pack answers the questions before customers ask them
