Commercial Attorney (Technology Deal Heavy Environment)

The Position
Our client, a large publicly traded technology company headquartered in the Bay Area, is seeking an experienced Commercial / Technology Transactions Attorney to join its legal team. In this role, the attorney will own complex commercial transactions end-to-end, including drafting, negotiating, and structuring highly customized agreements that support strategic business initiatives. The role requires a sophisticated drafter who can translate business intent into clear, precise legal language and exercise strong judgment in fast-moving, high-stakes deal environments.

The ideal candidate brings rigorous transactional training (big law or equivalent) and significant experience negotiating and drafting complex commercial agreements, including technology, data, privacy, brand, and collaboration-based arrangements. While prior partnership-style deal experience is helpful, it is not required; the client is primarily seeking a strong deal lawyer with demonstrated ability to handle bespoke transactions, preserve legal intent across revisions, and manage details with a high degree of accuracy.

Candidates should be collaborative, business-minded attorneys who are comfortable owning deals independently and working closely with cross-functional stakeholders. The ideal candidate communicates clearly and pragmatically, exercises strong judgment, and can be trusted to manage transactions end-to-end with minimal oversight. The client places a high value on attorneys who are personable, easy to work with, and effective partners to the business.

ASAP start, 40 hours/week, with an initial duration of 2-3 months, with potential to extend. The candidate can be based anywhere in the U.S. 

The hourly rate for this assignment is expected to be between $110 and $116. This range is an estimate; an employee’s compensation will be based on the employee’s qualifications, skillset, and relevant experience, specific client needs, project requirements, and other considerations permitted by law.
