Job Summary

Lead TRM's corporate legal function, owning M&A, strategic investments, equity financings, and governance frameworks; design AI-assisted due diligence workflows; build scalable governance, compliance, and in-house templates; advise C-suite with speed and precision to scale the business.
Location: United States
Workplace: Remote
Employment Type: Full time
Job Function: Legal, Risk & Compliance

Key Responsibilities

  • •Lead M&A transactions, strategic investments, and equity financings as primary deal counsel, using AI tools to compress due diligence timelines and reduce outside counsel spend.
  • •Design and implement AI-assisted due diligence workflows that cut average deal cycle time in half without sacrificing diligence quality or legal rigor.
  • •Build corporate governance infrastructure from the ground up—board consent processes, committee charters, equity plan governance, and multi-entity compliance frameworks—that scales from Series D to IPO.
  • •Support the CLO in advising the CEO and VP Finance on all corporate law matters, enabling faster, more informed strategic decisions without routing every question through outside counsel.
  • •Reduce outside counsel dependency by bringing high-frequency corporate work in-house and building reusable templates and playbooks that business teams can use independently for routine matters.

Key Requirements

  • •10+ years of corporate legal experience with demonstrated lead-counsel ownership of M&A, equity financings, or strategic investments — you have closed deals, not just supported them.
  • •Active US bar admission; JD from an ABA-accredited law school.
  • •In-house experience at a high-growth technology company; BigLaw-only backgrounds without in-house exposure are not competitive for this role.
  • •Proven AI fluency: you use Claude, Gemini, or equivalent tools in your daily workflow and can design AI-assisted legal processes — not just use AI for one-off research.
  • •Ability to run transactions independently with a strong bias toward closing, operating with minimal supervision in a fast-moving environment.
