We are not just automating a process; we are leading the industry in redefining how companies negotiate and manage supplier relationships. Our AI agents work around the clock, collaborating seamlessly with humans to discover negotiation opportunities and close supplier deals at scale.

As the first in our field, we address novel challenges with novel solutions. Our platform enables large enterprises to manage and monitor negotiations at scale, effectively saving money, boosting efficiency, and strengthening crucial supplier relationships. We’re built on a foundation of deep decision-making capabilities and cutting-edge innovation, which has allowed us to raise over $100 million in funding, including a Series C of $54 million in June 2025 led by Insight Partners. Our technology is proven—with notable achievements like a negotiation and signing carried out entirely by AI agents in just 87 seconds.
We are looking for someone who will...
- Draft, review, negotiate and manage the full lifecycle of various multi-jurisdictional commercial and technology related agreements, including enterprise SaaS, MSAs, DPAs, enterprise software license, NDAs, professional services, vendor and various partner agreements (e.g. SaaS reseller, alliance, teaming, technology partner agreements).
- Review various commercial and product initiatives from a legal and compliance, including from a data privacy and AI compliance perspective.
- Support our growing sales organization in negotiating and closing revenue-generating agreements with sophisticated enterprise clients, including high-value and complex enterprise-level deals on counterparty paper.
- Identify opportunities for improvement in processes, tools, templates, policies, knowledge management, compliance frameworks, and other related areas, and help implement those improvements.
- Conduct legal research and analysis and proactively recognize and propose solutions to potential legal and compliance issues.
- Provide practical legal advice and prepare legal documents where required.Work cross-functionally with teams located in Europe and in the US such as e.g. Sales, Product, Engineering, People, Security and Finance.
- This is a small legal team so you will have ample opportunity (and be expected to) pitch in and work on matters outside of your main focus areas. This means you will also advise and support on a variety of other tasks as required.
- Handle legal coordination and administrative tasks.
- Respond to other ad hoc legal requests and provide legal guidance.
- Stay current on relevant laws, regulations, and developments to provide the most up-to-date guidance.
You are likely to succeed if you..
- Have 5+ years of relevant experience in the in-house legal department of a similar organization or at a well respected law firm, or equivalent experience. Cross-border and international experience in a B2B SaaS business is a considerable asset.
- Have demonstrated excellence and accuracy in legal drafting and negotiating various sophisticated and complex agreements, including enterprise-level agreements and personal data processing agreements.
- Have demonstrated ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced environment, balancing speed with sound judgment.
- Have strong and demonstrated knowledge of data protection laws.
- Have demonstrated strong capability to manage several simultaneous tasks or projects under deadline pressure, think strategically, handle ambiguity and shift priorities with flexibility, patience, and poise. Have strong ability to make risk-based commercial decisions.
- Have high ethics, accountability and resilience.
- Have a proactive and self-starter approach. You are eager to gain expertise in new complex areas of the law, and also willing to work on “bread and butter” type of tasks, including basic agreements. You are not afraid to get your hands dirty with whatever lands on your desk. You roll up your sleeves, work efficiently and get things done on time with limited guidance.
- Have strong collaboration and project management skills, and a strong ownership mindset.
- Have a proactive approach to recognizing needs, anticipating issues, and solving problems.
