About the role

As Product Counsel, you'll be an early, versatile member of our founding legal team, counseling across a broad range of functions as the business grows. This is a generalist role with real breadth. You'll support security, compliance, and go-to-market needs, handle customer-facing legal matters, and help lay the foundation for a larger counseling team over time. It's a role for someone who's energized by range, comfortable with ambiguity, and excited to build durable infrastructure rather than inherit it.
