Product Counsel

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as embedded counsel for product and engineering, reviewing features, flows, and launches at the pace we ship.
• Advise on the hard questions in generative AI and synthetic media: right of publicity, IP and copyright, content moderation, and provenance and disclosure.
• Own consumer-facing legal surfaces like our Terms of Service, privacy policy, in-product disclosures and consents, and app store compliance.
• Counsel marketing and growth on claims, endorsements, and promotions.
• Build lightweight legal processes, such as launch reviews and escalation paths, that enable speed rather than slow it down.
• Triage incoming legal matters across the company and manage with relevant stakeholders, including outside counsel when necessary.

Requirements

• 5+ years of legal experience, including substantial product counsel work at a consumer technology company (in-house, or firm plus in-house).
• J.D. and active membership in good standing in at least one state bar with an ability to practice in-house in New York.
• Fluency in the legal landscape of consumer software: privacy (GDPR, CCPA, COPPA), IP, UGC and content issues, and consumer protection.
• Practical, business-first judgment. You give clear, concise answers and workable paths forward, not memos.
• Comfortable operating as the only lawyer in the room, with the curiosity to stretch into the unknown.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with generative AI, synthetic media, or similar technologies.
• You've managed outside counsel relationships and legal spend.
• You've been an early legal hire at a startup, or have been looking for that experience.
