A bit about us:

Our client is a venture-backed energy company developing and deploying across multiple international markets. They're a lean, high-caliber team moving fast, and they're building out the legal foundation to support a contracting volume that's growing as fast as their order book.

Why join us?

You'll work on a contract mix that most in-house attorneys don't see until much later in their career: PPAs, EPC, offtake, interconnection, all live and at volume. You'll have real influence over how the legal function is built, not just how it operates. And you'll do it at a company where the work has genuine consequences beyond the next deal close. If you're a commercially sharp attorney who wants to be a builder, this is for you.

J.D. and active bar admission in at least one U.S. jurisdiction
5-10 years of commercial contracting experience in-house, at a firm, or both
Substantive experience with energy and infrastructure development agreements: revenue contracts, construction and procurement deals, and long-term service arrangements
Ability to manage a high volume of active contracts without sacrificing quality or attention to detail

Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities shift and ambiguity is part of the job
