Why work at Nebius
Nebius is leading a new era in cloud computing to serve the global AI economy. We create the tools and resources our customers need to solve real-world challenges and transform industries, without massive infrastructure costs or the need to build large in-house AI/ML teams. Our employees work at the cutting edge of AI cloud infrastructure alongside some of the most experienced and innovative leaders and engineers in the field.
Where we work
Headquartered in Amsterdam and listed on Nasdaq, Nebius has a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, North America, and Israel. The team of over 800 employees includes more than 400 highly skilled engineers with deep expertise across hardware and software engineering, as well as an in-house AI R&D team.
The role
Nebius is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Legal Counsel to join our US legal team. This role is best suited for an attorney with strong law firm training and significant experience in complex commercial real estate transactions, energy matters, data centers, technology, and compliance. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, technically strong, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment across multiple parallel projects. This attorney will support Nebius's US data center expansion, including site acquisitions, colocation arrangements, power supply agreements, and related regulatory matters.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including:
- Real estate purchase agreements and leases
- Colocation and data center service agreements
- Construction, procurement, and infrastructure-related agreements
- Support real estate due-diligence processes, including zoning, permitting, corporate structuring, and title review.
- Assist with project financing, secured transactions, and lender interactions (experience in this area is a plus).
- Provide legal support for large and complex transactions.
- Work closely with internal stakeholders to ensure compliance with company policies and applicable US laws.
- Help develop and improve contract templates, internal processes, and playbooks for the US legal function.
- Manage external counsel and coordinate legal workstreams across multiple ongoing projects.
- Provide clear, practical, business-oriented legal advice in a high-pressure and fast-moving environment.
We expect you to have:
- J.D. degree from an accredited US law school; admitted to practice in at least one US state.
- 6-8 years of relevant legal experience after bar admission.
- Strong law firm background required, with hands-on experience in:
- Commercial real estate transactions (acquisitions and leasing)
- Data centers
- Commercial contracting
- Strong drafting, negotiation, and analytical skills.
- Ability to manage multiple complex matters simultaneously.
- Excellent communication skills and high attention to detail.
- Ability to work independently and in a fast-paced environment.
What we offer
- Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
- Opportunities for professional growth within Nebius.
- Flexible working arrangements.
- A dynamic and collaborative work environment that values initiative and innovation.
