McLean, VA jobs
Director, Assistant General Counsel - Business Core About the Role
We're looking for an experienced and collaborative legal leader to join our growing TechReg Legal team. This is a unique opportunity to act as the lead legal partner for the Business Core tower of our Customer Identity and Core team (CIC). The CIC team is responsible for managing the enterprise system of record for over millions of customers, both consumers and businesses, enabling access to the company's digital experiences and protecting critical customer account information at the highest level of security. We are always evolving the way we serve our small business and commercial customers, and this role is at the forefront of that work. You'll partner closely with our Product, Engineering, and Design teams, providing clear, practical legal advice that helps us innovate while navigating a complex regulatory landscape. You'll work on everything from product counseling to managing issues and events.
What you'll do
Be a strategic thought partner and advisor: Provide proactive, business‑minded legal advice to our senior product leaders on the evolution of our Business Core. You'll also be something of an investigator: you'll work on projects that unite our many lines of business, so you'll drill down into how we do what we do, and why we do what we do, so we can build a better way. You'll understand the business' objectives, understand the full landscape and context of the applicable law, and work through unchartered territory as you apply the law to business initiatives.
Translate the law: Act as the subject matter expert on a wide range of regulatory issues. You'll need to understand the law and work with our regulatory subject matter experts on novel issues, understand the business and their customers (e.g., small business, commercial), understand the technology, and put them all together as a trusted business advisor. You'll translate between business intent, regulatory requirements, legal guardrails, best practices, etc. You won't need to know everything about everything, but you'll need to know a little about a lot, and know how to communicate legal requirements to the business, and business requirements to legal subject matter experts.
Quarterback: You are the Legal point person for your area. You have a defined scope, but aren't stuck in a box. You own the legal issues, including drafting product terms, reviewing marketing collateral, and interfacing with business leaders. Don't worry though, you'll have plenty of support from the rest of your Legal Team. We problem solve together.
Build scalable solutions: Help build processes, playbooks, and training materials that enable our product teams and stakeholders to move quickly and confidently.
Some examples of tasks you would be responsible for:
Reviewing product feature changes for regulatory compliance issues by meeting with business partners to better understand the feature, identifying legal obligations or risks, and providing recommendations to manage legal risk, e.g., revising user‑facing content, drafting product terms and disclosures, and assisting with strategic partnership integrations.
Performing legal research on the application of existing and new laws to novel implementations of technology, developing legal theories when applying the law to complex use cases, and using your knowledge and expertise to influence business strategy and decisions.
Who you are
You are an intellectually curious, proactive, business‑oriented legal professional who thrives in a fast‑paced environment. You're comfortable being the go‑to expert on complex legal topics and can break down intricate legal concepts into simple terms. You have a passion for technology, a desire to own your work, and a collaborative spirit. You are familiar with the nuances of the B2B space, and have an ability and desire to learn new areas of law.
