    Role. General Counsel

    Location: Seattle, WA (Hybrid. In-office preferred)

    Experience: 10 –15+ years legal experience

    Reports to: Founder / CEO

    Role Overview

    The General Counsel will serve as the company's chief legal strategist and risk partner.

    This is not a back-office compliance role. You will be deeply involved in business decisions, product design, contracts, partnerships, and long-term strategy. You will help the company grow responsibly while protecting brand, reputation, and operational integrity.

    You are expected to think like a business leader first, and a lawyer second.

    Key Responsibilities

    1. Legal Strategy & Business Partnership

    • Act as a trusted advisor to the Founder and leadership team.
    • Provide clear, practical legal guidance on strategic initiatives, partnerships, and growth plans.
    • Balance speed and risk in a high-growth environment.
    • Translate legal complexity into actionable business decisions.

    2. Corporate & Commercial Matters

    • Oversee corporate governance, entity structuring, and board matters.
    • Draft, review, and negotiate commercial contracts, vendor agreements, partnerships, and client-facing documents.
    • Support pricing structures, guarantees, refund policies, and service terms.
    • Ensure contracts align with business reality and customer experience.

    3. Regulatory, Compliance & Risk Management

    • Own compliance across applicable federal, state, and international regulations relevant to the business.
    • Identify, assess, and mitigate legal and regulatory risks proactively.
    • Build scalable compliance frameworks that support growth, not slow it down.
    • Oversee data privacy, security, and internal policies in collaboration with operations and tech teams.

    4. Product & Offering Review

    • Partner with growth and product teams to review new offerings before launch.
    • Ensure marketing claims, positioning, and guarantees are legally sound and defensible.
    • Help design offerings that are both competitive and compliant.

    5. Dispute Management & Reputation Protection

    • Manage disputes, complaints, and escalations with a focus on resolution and brand protection.
    • Oversee external counsel when litigation or specialized advice is required.
    • Protect the company's reputation through sound legal judgment and early intervention.

    6. Team, Systems & External Counsel

    • Build and manage a lean, high-quality legal function.
    • Decide what to handle internally versus through external counsel.
    • Create templates, playbooks, and processes to reduce friction across teams.
    • Educate leadership and teams on legal best practices without creating fear or bureaucracy.

    What We're Looking For

    • Strong experience as in-house counsel or senior legal leader in a high-growth company.
    • Excellent judgment and ability to operate in ambiguity.
    • Commercially minded. You understand how businesses actually work.
    • Clear communicator who can advise non-legal stakeholders effectively.
    • High integrity with a pragmatic, solution-oriented mindset.
    • Comfortable working closely with founders and senior leadership.

    Why This Role Matters

    This role protects the company's long-term ability to scale.

    • You will help ensure growth is durable, defensible, and aligned with trust. Your decisions will directly influence risk exposure, customer confidence, and brand credibility.
