You'll work closely with the Head of Legal and Managing Partner of Norm Law, LLP, and collaborate with the Head of Norm Law Operations.

• Success in this role requires excellent judgment, exceptional organization, discretion with sensitive matters, and the range and curiosity to move fluidly across legal disciplines and between legal and business problems
• Pragmatic and business-minded; you find the path to “yes” with appropriate guardrails and are comfortable supporting a commercial / GTM function, not just providing legal review
• JD and barred in at least one state (NY preferred), with 2–3 years of experience at a top-tier law firm and / or in-house at a high-growth company
• A generalist by inclination, meaning you want broad coverage across corporate, commercial, employment, IP, and data privacy / security rather than a single area of practice
• Strong corporate / transactional foundation, with the range and curiosity to pick up adjacent areas quickly
• Highly organized and systems-oriented, with a low-ego, action-oriented mindset and no task too big or too small
• Exceptional judgment, discretion, and ownership; you will need to be trusted with sensitive corporate, personnel, and client matters
• Familiarity with law firm operations or professional-services go-to-market
• Exposure to startup equity, employment matters, IP, data privacy, or venture financings
• Genuine enthusiasm for AI and what it means for the future of legal services
