We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. (Note: For EpiSci job openings, fully remote work will be considered by exception.)
About the role
We are looking for an experienced tech transactions/commercial attorney to join our legal team. This is a uniquely strategic role with a mix of both internal and external-facing responsibilities and our first lawyer outside of the US. In short, this role will make an impact. You will report to our Head of Legal and primarily support Sales, Product, and Engineering. You will also have opportunities to expand your role as part of a small legal team in a high growth start up and as our first lawyer in Europe.
Our ideal candidate is a business-minded lawyer who is focused on execution, prepared to lead on important deals, and comfortable making thoughtful and creative decisions.

- Be a trusted advisor to the leadership team on legal matters critical to the growth of the business
- Collaborate cross-functionally with multiple stakeholders (e.g., Sales, Finance, Product, Engineering, etc.) to lead key initiatives
- Support activities related to IP, Product, and Compliance as needed
- Create forms, playbooks, and training to improve consistency, execution speed, risk mitigation, and scalability
- Develop and implement scalable and sustainable legal operations processes, programs and tools to support the legal team’s efficient delivery of services to the broader company
- Proactively manage other duties that may arise as part of a small legal team in a high growth start-up
We’re looking for someone who has:
- Experience structuring, drafting and negotiating complex commercial agreements, including software licenses, strategic partnerships, and joint development agreements
- Demeanor to thrive in a fast-paced sales focused environment, requiring exceptional organizational skills, juggling priorities, and adhering to strict deadlines
- Excellent English and German proficiency
- 5+ years of experience with the activities described above, ideally as part of both a law firm and in house teams
Nice to have:
- Experience with some combination of law firm and in-house work
- Computer science or engineering degree
Don’t meet every single requirement? If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
