Head of Legal

At Aera Technology, we are helping the largest enterprises in the world transform how they make and execute decisions with Decision Intelligence. Aera understands how your business works, makes real-time recommendations, predicts outcomes, and takes action autonomously. Our platform delivers the business agility required to respond to today’s ever-changing environment.

We are seeking a Head of Legal to build a world-class legal function at Aera. This is an opportunity to deliver significant value to our business as a hands-on operator, in partnership with internal and external stakeholders. If you like taking the initiative, driving processes, making an impact, and are excited to roll up your sleeves, we want to hear from you!

We are a remote-friendly company. Our ideal candidate will be based in our San Francisco or Mountain View office, but we are open to anywhere in the US. If outside of the SF Bay Area, expect to travel to our offices as needed.

Responsibilities

    • Draft, review, and negotiate complex SaaS and professional services agreements with global enterprises and partners, and other commercial agreements as needed to protect the company's interest
    • Drive internal legal initiatives covering topics such as employment law, IP strategy, commercial terms strategies, security and data compliance, and risk management
    • Establish and enhance internal corporate legal policies and compliance programs including creation of company agreements, forms and legal playbooks to streamline processes
    • Communicate and negotiate with external parties (regulators, external counsel, public authority etc.), creating relationships of trust
    • Build a high performing in-house global Legal department and develop legal policies to protect and promote the company

About You

    • 10+ years of experience including tenure in a corporate legal department
    • Exceptional judgment: balancing risk with business priorities
    • Start-up mindset: independent, self-motivated individual with great work ethic and a perspective of helping out wherever and however needed
    • Focus on the bigger picture: results-oriented, rather than task-oriented
    • High integrity and ethical standards
    • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills (written and verbal) across all levels of the organization with a positive, service-oriented attitude
    • Strong academic background and J.D. from highly-regarded school
    • Licensed to practice law in California or New York
At Aera, we're on a mission to solve the biggest, most intractable challenges in the world of enterprise software. We envision the rise of the Self-Driving Enterprise: a more autonomously functioning business with a central operating system that connects and orchestrates business operations. Our Cognitive Operating System is increasingly used by the world's largest companies to fundamentally transform their organizations and how work is done.

If you share our passion for building the next generation of enterprise software, and deploying it for the most sophisticated customers in the world, you’ve met your match. Headquartered in Mountain View, California, we're growing fast, with teams in Mountain View and San Francisco (California), Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca (Romania), Paris (France), Munich (Germany), London (UK), Pune and Bangalore (India), Sydney (Australia) and Singapore.
