This lawyer will work across product-facing, governance-facing, and policy-adjacent matters, with a primary focus on high-risk and high-visibility AI initiatives, the AI impact assessment workflow, AI inventory, governance controls and mitigations, transparency artifacts, and cross-functional enablement. The role is designed for a lawyer who can combine strong legal judgment with practical execution, operate effectively across multidisciplinary teams, and help GM lead rather than follow in AI governance as we deploy AI assets across all facets of the business and the vehicles.

Required qualifications - J.D. and active bar membership in good standing. - 8+ years of experience counseling on AI/ML, robotics, technology, digital products, data use, privacy, cybersecurity, or related regulatory matters. - AI fluency, including complex prompting, agent development, and vibe-coding, including knowledge of AI fitness for purpose and its limitations. - Demonstrated familiarity with global AI legal and standards frameworks and the ability to apply them in practical business and product contexts. - Proven track record of building 0-1 systems and scaling governance programs, workflows, or controls rather than only advising on them. - Strong judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving, cross-functional environments. - Experience working across multidisciplinary teams to implement governance, compliance, or risk-management practices in real operating processes. - Ability to communicate clearly with legal, technical, product, compliance, and business stakeholders. - Ability to move fluidly between strategic governance questions and hands-on execution work. - Experience drafting, interpreting, and negotiating contracts and templates for deals involving AI solutions and add-ons. Preferred qualifications - Experience driving AI governance, responsible AI, algorithmic accountability, model risk, AI evaluations, and red-teaming. - Experience building solutions with the help of AI. - Familiarity with enterprise AI products, transparency artifacts, product documentation, or safety-aligned governance frameworks. - Experience engaging with external industry groups, benchmarking forums, or standards-development efforts related to AI, privacy, or digital governance. - Ability to identify skills gaps, create practical guidance, and help mature internal governance capabilities across business functions.
