Job Description
Job Requirements
- JD from an accredited law school and active license to practice law in the US (or equivalent qualification in relevant jurisdiction)
- 6-8 years of legal experience with significant focus on product counselling, privacy, and data protection.
- In-house experience at a fast growing technology company with demonstrated experience in closely supporting internal product teams; pure law firm backgrounds are likely not a fit for this role.
- Exposure to AI, SaaS, or high-growth technology product environments, including working closely with Product, Engineering, and Security teams.
- Strong technical curiosity and ability to understand product architecture and features, SaaS platforms, and data flows, enabling practical and actionable legal guidance.
- Commercial mindset - you understand that legal enables product velocity, not the reverse.
- Excellent written and verbal communication; able to translate complex regulatory requirements into clear guidance and actionable recommendations.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and equity.
- 10-year exercise window for stock options. You shouldn’t feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby —do it when you feel financially comfortable.
- Unlimited PTO with four weeks recommended per year. Expect “Vacation?” in our one-on-one agenda until you start taking it 😅.
- Twelve weeks of fully paid family leave in the US. We plan to expand this to employees in other countries as situations arise.
- Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive!
- $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval.
- If you’re in the US, top-notch health insurance for you and your dependents with all premiums covered by us.
