Senior Legal Operations Manager

Overview We're building the creative layer for modern communication. Every month, over a billion people make presentations — but the tools they use to make them haven't evolved in decades. We're changing that, using AI to disrupt a massive market. Millions of people rely on Gamma to create, teach, and persuade, creating more than 1 million gammas every day. We see Gamma as the next great workplace tool, combining viral B2C love with a massive B2B opportunity. We believe AI can be a true creative partner: one that understands context, clarity, and taste. We’ve reached a $2.1B valuation , crossed $100M in annual recurring revenue , and have been profitable since 2023. We're an imaginative, passionate team who takes our work seriously, but not ourselves. Our culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity. About the role Gamma doesn't have a legal operations function yet. You'll build it. As our first dedicated legal ops hire, you'll report to the Head of Legal and own the systems, processes, and tooling for a legal team that's scaling fast. Gamma has over 70 million users, is profitable with $100M+ ARR, and is pushing hard into enterprise. That means a rapidly growing volume of commercial contracts, vendor agreements, privacy workflows, and compliance requests— all of which need infrastructure behind them. This is a ground-up build role. You'll assess what we need, select and implement the right tools, and create the workflows that let our lawyers focus on substantive legal work instead of administrative overhead. Our team has a strong in-office culture and works in person 4–5 days per week in San Francisco. We love working together to stay creative and connected, with flexibility to work from home when focus matters most. What you'll do Contract Operations Evaluate, select, and implement a contract lifecycle management (CLM) platform Design and own the legal intake and triage process Build and maintain a contract template library, clause bank, and self-serve resources that enable Sales and other teams to move faster with less legal touch Track deal flow, turnaround times, and bottlenecks; report on legal team throughput and capacity to inform resourcing decisions Legal Technology & Knowledge Management Own the legal tech stack end to end: selection, implementation, configuration, training, and ongoing optimization Build knowledge management systems: centralized repositories for executed agreements, approved positions, precedent language, and institutional knowledge Identify opportunities to automate repetitive legal workflows (NDAs, standard vendor agreements, routine approvals) and implement solutions Privacy Program Implement and manage our privacy program under attorney supervision Handle data subject requests and other privacy laws Support vendor privacy assessments and data processing agreement negotiations Coordinate cross-functional privacy compliance initiatives Team & Budget Operations Build reporting and dashboards that give leadership visibility into legal workload, spend, and operational metrics As the legal team grows, help define roles, onboarding processes, and operational standards for new hires What you'll bring 5+ years of legal operations experience, with at least 2 years in-house at a technology or SaaS company Demonstrated experience building legal ops infrastructure from early stage; you’ve selected and implemented a CLM (Ironclad, DocuSign CLM, Juro, or similar), built intake workflows, and stood up reporting Strong technical fluency: you’re comfortable evaluating legal tech tools and configuring workflows Experience managing contract lifecycle processes across both customer (sell-side) and vendor (buy-side) agreements Working familiarity with privacy compliance operations (DPA tracking, subprocessor management, DSR workflows) Project management discipline: you can run multiple concurrent workstreams, hit deadlines, and hold cross-functional stakeholders accountable A bias toward building systems over doing things manually Nice to have Experience at a company navigating the transition from consumer/prosumer to enterprise sales Familiarity with SOC 2 audit processes and security compliance coordination Experience with AI-related compliance workflows or emerging AI regulatory frameworks Compensation range Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including but not limited to experience and expertise in the requirements listed above. If you're interested in this role but you don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway! We're always excited about meeting great people. You get energy from small teams doing big things. You love when design, code, and storytelling overlap. You default to action, even when the answer isn’t clear yet. You value details, but know when to ship and move on. You bring both the spreadsheets and the sparkle, equal parts workhorse and unicorn. You believe AI should amplify creativity, not replace it. You know kindness and intensity are not opposites. You like working with people who care deeply: about their craft, their teammates, and the users on the other side of the screen. Who we are Gamma is full of imaginative, passionate people who take their work seriously but not themselves. The culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity. It’s the kind of place where you’ll debate a pixel on Monday, laugh over someone’s keyboard setup on Tuesday, and ship something remarkable by Friday. We care about craft, move with intention, and don’t mind getting a little scrappy. It’s fast, creative, and occasionally chaotic — but that’s what makes it interesting. Here’s a bit about what it’s like to work here, from people on the inside: We asked the team what makes Gamma, Gamma. Here were some of their answers: "quirky, inspiring, fun, a little wild in the best way" "You can have an idea and just run with it." "Everyone’s talented and humble — the mix keeps you sharp." "We ship cool stuff, learn a ton, and laugh a lot doing it." Meet the team We're a team of dreamers and doers building in beautiful San Francisco We're kabbadi enthusiasts, pickleballers, dog herders, woodworkers, keyboard nerds, potters, and more — and we can't wait to meet you! #J-18808-Ljbffr
