Commitment: 5 Days In-Person

We're looking for a lawyer who can help complex enterprise deals move quickly while protecting the terms that matter.

As Commercial Counsel at Endex, you'll own customer and vendor contracting. You'll work directly with sales, procurement and technical teams to make agreements clear, workable and consistent with how our product operates.

Your Key Responsibilities

  • Own Commercial Agreements: Draft and negotiate subscription agreements, order forms, NDAs, vendor contracts and partner terms across the deal lifecycle.

  • Partner with Sales: Anticipate legal objections and keep negotiations tied to the commercial goal.

  • Make Risk Decisions Clear: Explain liability, intellectual property, data-use and service commitments in the context of the customer relationship.

  • Build Contract Playbooks: Maintain templates, fallback positions and escalation guidance.

  • Build the Contracting System: Maintain templates, negotiation playbooks, approval rules and contract records that help the team close sound agreements quickly.

What We're Looking For

  • Qualified Attorney: You have a JD or equivalent legal qualification and active bar admission.

  • Commercial Experience: You've negotiated technology agreements with enterprise customers.

  • Practical Judgment: You distinguish material risk from an issue that can be resolved through clear terms.

  • Technical Fluency: You want to understand the product and the data flows behind an agreement.

  • Commercial Technology Practice: You have negotiated enterprise software agreements directly and can balance legal risk, customer trust and the needs of a growing business.
