On the commercial side, you will draft, negotiate, and advise on strategic partnership, customer, and procurement agreements, and help business teams understand deal structure and risk. You will work directly with legal, finance, and business leaders, help manage outside counsel, and help keep our templates, playbooks, and processes sharp, including by using AI tools to streamline our work.
