About the role

You will help Rutylis move quickly while making sound, responsible decisions. The work calls for practical legal judgement, clear communication, and close partnership with teams that need guidance they can actually use in day-to-day execution.

- Draft and negotiate commercial and corporate agreements
- Advise the business with clear, practical guidance
- Advise the business on commercial, product, and privacy matters
- Draft and negotiate agreements that protect Rutylis and move deals forward
- Build scalable templates, playbooks, and processes
- Partner with product on privacy-by-design and responsible data use

- Excellent drafting, negotiation, and judgement
- Ability to give pragmatic, business-minded advice
