Role

In this role, you'll review contract negotiation turns and reference redlines, and assess whether the redline reflects what a competent counsel would actually do: the right issues flagged, the right positions taken, and edits made surgically.

Requirements

  • Experience: 3+ years of hands-on experience negotiating and redlining commercial contracts (MSAs, SOWs, NDAs, DPAs, vendor and SaaS agreements, or similar), at a law firm, private company, or municipality.
  • Education: US JD (Juris Doctor) from an accredited US law school required; active bar admission strongly preferred.
  • Practicing US attorney. USA-based practicing attorneys only.

Attorneys on a career break or working remotely/flexibly are a great fit for this role.

All offers are contingent upon a background check. We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every qualification listed above; we look for candidates who meet at least 70% of the listed qualifications.

Responsibilities

  • Review contract negotiation transcripts and reference redlines
  • Assess whether each redline reflects the judgment a competent counsel would exercise, including the right issues flagged, the right positions taken, and edits made surgically
  • Provide clear, structured written feedback on redline quality

Requirements

  • Ability to evaluate contract redlines and communicate clear, structured written judgments
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience negotiating and redlining commercial contracts (MSAs, SOWs, NDAs, DPAs, vendor/SaaS agreements, or similar) at a law firm, private company, or municipality
  • US JD (Juris Doctor) from an accredited US law school
  • Based in the United States

  • Experience negotiating SaaS, MSA, or other technology commercial agreements
  • Experience in a fast-paced in-house, fractional GC, or high-volume contracts environment
