THE OPPORTUNITY:
At Salesloft, our Senior Commercial Counsel will be a critical member of our lean, high-impact Legal team. This is a dual-mandate role: you'll start by leading a heavy lift on maturing our privacy program, then shift focus toward commercial deal work as volume ramps into quarter-end. On a day-to-day basis, you will be responsible for the following:
- Lead and mature the company's privacy program — policies, process, and cross-functional education — partnering closely with our General Counsel and during ramp-up to bring the program to current standard.
- Review, negotiate, and manage to close a variety of complex commercial agreements, including sales contracts, inbound procurement engagements with vendors, master services agreements, DPAs, AI Addendums, NDAs, Statements of Work, and Order Forms.
- Identify contractual and privacy-related risks and recommend practical, business-minded solutions.
- Analyze and advise on issues related to AI, technology development, SaaS licensing, strategic sourcing, software integrations, partnerships, and general commercial contracting.
- Work cross-functionally with Deal Desk, Sales, Procurement, Product, and Finance to ensure contractual terms are compliant with legal, regulatory, and company policy and risk standards — especially around end-of-quarter deal velocity.
- Flex into adjacent legal matters as needed, including employment questions and legal operations support, as part of a small, high-trust team where versatility matters as much as depth.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
- 5-7+ years of experience negotiating SaaS, software licensing, and commercial contracts — including master subscription agreements, DPAs, AI documentation, NDAs, and vendor contracts — with meaningful hands-on privacy program experience (e.g., GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, data mapping, privacy-by-design).
- J.D. degree from an accredited law school.
- Active membership in a United States bar,
- Background in B2B SaaS or high-growth technology companies strongly preferred, with the adaptable, self-directed mindset common among counsel who've grown up in fast-moving tech environments.
- Excellent analytical, communication, organizational, negotiation, and drafting skills, including experience negotiating complex IP and data privacy terms with enterprise customers.
- Excellent legal and business judgment, critical thinking, and the ability to manage multiple matters and priorities simultaneously.
- Detail-oriented, resourceful, and energized by end-to-end ownership rather than narrow scope.
- Experience working with enterprise-level Sales teams to meet end-of-quarter deadlines.
- Experience with cloud-based business models and the contracting paradigms that support them.
