About the Role
Mango Languages is hiring a Corporate Counsel to support our legal function across a broad range of business matters.

The Corporate Counsel will also work on a range of additional legal matters as they arise, including intellectual property, employment law, regulatory compliance, and data privacy. The role includes conducting legal research, working with outside specialists when appropriate, and helping improve legal processes, templates, and resources, including through thoughtful use of AI to streamline work and enhance legal output. Working under the direction of the Senior Corporate Counsel, this attorney will apply judgment within established playbooks and precedent on day-to-day matters, escalating novel issues or any deviation from playbook to the Senior Corporate Counsel.
