  • Support implementation and optimization of legal tech tools (e.g., repository, GenAI assistant)
  • Work with stakeholders across Sales, Deal Desk, Finance, and Product to support smooth internal legal operations
  • Support a broad range of corporate matters and transactions with guidance from counsel and collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders, including with respect to strategic transactions, subsidiary entity management, equity, and other projects

  • Assist with other projects as needed
     

About You
