As we enter our next stage of growth, we are seeking a practical, business-minded attorney to join our legal team as Counsel or Senior Counsel, depending on experience. As a key member of a lean legal team, this attorney will independently own significant matters across government and commercial contracting, corporate and financing matters, compliance, and business operations. The role offers the opportunity to influence decisions early, build scalable legal processes, and help shape the legal function as the company grows.

Advise business leaders and cross-functional teams on commercial, corporate, regulatory, employment, and operational matters.

Draft, review, and negotiate customer, vendor, partnership, licensing, services, confidentiality, and other commercial agreements.

Support the full lifecycle of government opportunities and acquisition vehicles, including capture and proposals, solicitation review, prime contracts, subcontracts, teaming arrangements, performance issues, modifications, claims, and disputes.

Support export controls, trade compliance, CUI and cybersecurity requirements, ethics and compliance, industrial security, investigations, and related regulatory matters.

Create templates, playbooks, policies, training, and processes that improve consistency, responsiveness, and speed as the company scales.

Contribute wherever the legal needs of the business are greatest.

This person should be able to distinguish material legal and business risks from issues that can be managed pragmatically and know when to act independently, seek input, or escalate.

Success will require sound judgment, flexibility, and the ability to build a close, collaborative partnership with the General Counsel and colleagues across the business. This role is well suited for a team-oriented attorney who is comfortable taking ownership, working outside rigid subject-matter lanes, and moving fluidly between strategic initiatives and immediate business needs.
