Job Description
We are looking for a thoughtful and strategic lawyer to work as the product counsel for our international product team. We need a lawyer who wants to be a dynamic and practical frontline touchpoint for all legal matters.
As Product Counsel, you’ll have a broad range of responsibilities providing legal guidance on product development. You will report to the Product Counsel Lead, Cash App and partner with our product team to develop new technologies while managing legal risk and ensuring regulatory compliance. You may be called upon to negotiate complex commercial relationships that contribute to our products’ success. As we expand our offerings, your ideas and contributions will make an immediate impact.
You are highly motivated, organized, and creative. You may already have in-house experience or you may be currently working at a law firm. You may have experience in a generalist role, or you may currently be a specialist that has the skills and desire to broaden your impact. You are curious, with a desire to understand underlying causes and motivations. You’re a lawyer, not a business person, but you have natural business instincts.
You are able to research and master complex legal topics and communicate them to non-lawyers in brief, clear language. You are capable of an expert understanding of a legal issue but can separate the practical from the academic and provide clear, accurate, and actionable advice to the business team. You can markup a complex commercial contract, draft terms of service, manage a conversation with a regulator, and draft a memo on the legal aspects of a new product feature. You are good-humored, patient, respectful to your co-workers, and bring a positive attitude to our team.
Specific tasks include:
Provide guidance to product and engineering teams on issues related to all products and features throughout the entire product development lifecycle
Develop trusted relationships with business partners and stay informed on key product developments
Review inquiries from regulators and draft responses
Draft terms of use, product policies, and disclosures, and implement related processes
Work closely with other support teams (tax, compliance, accounting, outside counsel) to provide seamless support to business partners
Actively cultivate creative ideas and insights into how legal frameworks can support new product developments and customer experiences
Draft and negotiate commercial agreements affecting our products and services
Qualifications
4+ years of relevant experience at a top law firm or in-house legal department, preferably with experience at a high-growth startup or tech company (fintech an extra plus!)
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, especially in condensing complex legal topics into understandable and actionable guidance for non-lawyers
Ability to develop trusted professional relationships with non-lawyers
High emotional intelligence and positive attitude
Desire to learn about new technologies, ideas, and legal issues, especially in the payments and fintech industry
Ability to advocate for a position while maintaining collaborative and open-minded approach
Excellent analytical ability and project management
Ability to operate independently in a fast-moving environment to meet deadlines
Familiarity with contract and legal management tools is a plus
Actively licensed to practice law in the UK or EU
