As Commercial Counsel and the second lawyer at Loom, you will be responsible for Loom's commercial legal initiatives and other legal projects as needed to support and accelerate growth. You will help lead the commercial legal function at Loom and engage regularly with leaders on the revenue, product, business development, and operations teams.

Your Responsibilities

• Drive the commercial legal function for Loom, with a focus on operationalizing and scaling commercial legal support for Loom's sales, partnership, and procurement efforts.
• Draft, review, and negotiate all types of agreements, including sales, strategic partnerships, licensing, vendor agreements, and manage any related regulatory, compliance, and operational issues that arise.
• Partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders to manage risk, identify legal issues, and drive decision-making.
• Provide legal guidance on commercial issues and best practices to the company.
• Lead internal legal projects, operations, and trainings, and collaborate with team members to improve processes and ensure business demands are met in a fast-paced environment.

What We're Looking For

• 4+ years of relevant experience at a law firm or technology company (prior in-house experience preferred, but not required)
• Experience with drafting, reviewing, and negotiating complex licensing and commercial agreements.
• Experience advising on IP, product, privacy, and/or regulatory issues is a plus.
• A passion for law and technology, sound legal judgment, clear communication skills, an enthusiasm for learning, and an understanding of how to effectively provide legal advice in a rapid growth environment.
• A J.D. degree from an accredited law school and active membership in good standing with a State Bar.

Freedom and Flexibility: At Loom, we believe work is an act, not a place. When we disengage work from a location, we can accommodate a broad range of life choices. You can choose to work from home or while you travel. If you are in the Bay Area, you can drop by our San Francisco office on 2nd and Market St. when reopens in Fall 2021. We are able to hire across the United States and Canada* and are continuing to expand our international presence. And you are free to move within a country without any adjustment to compensation.

Engaging Workday: The key to an engaging workday is finding the right balance between different ways to work sync, async, text and video. Loom makes it easier for us to say what we mean without having to schedule a zoom meeting or struggle to find the right words. And using async communication allows us to free up time for deep work every day. We believe there's a place for sync time - often a conversation on Zoom is exactly what is needed. For team meetings, this ‘sync time’ is typically between 9AM-Noon PT given where the overlap of timezones where Loommates are located.

Work-Rest Balance: The way we balance the fast-paced demands of a high-growth startup and sustainability is making rest a priority. We offer a flexible PTO policy so you're able to take time off when you need it. We also go fully offline once a year between Christmas and New Year (and twice during the Pandemic). Rest is also part of the workday, not just during PTO. Taking a break for personal commitments, whether it's watching the kids or getting some exercise is natural part of the workday.

Social Connection: Relationships and connectedness matter. We are intentional about building trust and relationships through unique, shared experiences. Our virtual workspace keeps us connected day-to-day whether it's through Looms celebrating wins or our buzzing Slack communities. Loommates are able to meet in person with their teams at least twice a year purely for fun. We're also building local offices for those who want to work or meet in person, starting with San Francisco and New York City in Fall 2021.
