About the Role

The Company is seeking an Assistant General Counsel with a focus on corporate and securities law to join their legal department. The successful candidate will be a key advisor to the executive leadership team, with primary responsibilities including SEC reporting, public company compliance, and corporate governance. This role demands a seasoned attorney with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree, active bar membership, and a minimum of 12 years' legal experience, particularly in public company securities law and SEC reporting. The Assistant General Counsel will also provide support in various other legal areas, such as commercial contracting, privacy, employment law, trade compliance, and litigation management. Applicants for the Assistant General Counsel position at the company should be adept at operating independently on complex legal matters and be capable of partnering effectively with executives and cross-functional stakeholders. Key responsibilities include leading the preparation and review of SEC filings, advising on a range of securities law matters, and supporting the Board of Directors in corporate governance. The ideal candidate will have a combination of major law firm and in-house public company experience, with a preference for those who have worked with technology or semiconductor companies. Strong business judgment, practical problem-solving abilities, and the capacity to manage legal issues in a fast-paced, global environment are essential. The role also requires exceptional attention to detail, organizational skills, and the ability to influence without authority.
