Collaborate with legal and cross-functional subject-matter experts on intellectual property, cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and other specialized legal matters.
Support business teams with customer and regulatory questionnaires, certifications, contractual representations, and related commercial documentation.
Monitor developments in contract, commercial, and technology law relevant to assigned responsibilities.
Contribute to improvements in contract templates, review processes, legal operations, and risk-management practices.
