An embedded legal service that helps growing artificial intelligence vendors close complex deals and launch products without hiring another full-time counsel.
Added Aug 19, 2026
High opportunity (82%)
Scaling artificial intelligence companies face a growing queue of customer, partner, vendor, and infrastructure contracts that require both legal expertise and commercial judgment. Their lean legal teams must also advise product, finance, marketing, and revenue leaders on unfamiliar risks, causing slow negotiations and overloaded internal counsel.
Provide a fractional commercial counsel operation that owns a defined contract queue from intake through signature. The service supplies an experienced technology lawyer, reusable negotiation playbooks, escalation rules, and weekly deal reviews while working inside the buyer's existing email, CRM?, and contract repository. The initial engagement can focus narrowly on clearing customer agreements and establishing repeatable fallback positions.
Artificial intelligence vendors are moving into enterprise and regulated markets, where deals carry more demanding security, data-use, intellectual-property, and liability terms. Multiple companies are simultaneously seeking senior commercial lawyers with broad ownership, indicating immediate demand for additional execution capacity.

Have broad responsibility for negotiating SaaS AI agreements and providing practical day-to-day commercial legal support - primarily in the Americas region - for the sales, marketing, channels, and customer success teams with a focus on supporting the Enterprise segment
You'll own Firecrawl's commercial and product legal work end to end. Every enterprise deal, data-licensing agreement, and vendor relationship that gets signed here will run through you, and every product and engineering team shipping into new legal territory will come to you first. This is not a role where you review other people's paper and send back comments. You'll negotiate directly with counterparties, sit next to sales and BD while deals are live, advise engineers on data access and AI questions nobody has settled yet, and build the templates, playbooks, and processes that let the company move faster without taking on risk it shouldn't.
Reporting to the Managing Counsel, Commercial, you will serve as the primary legal partner for Postman's commercial and partnerships teams outside the Americas. Your manager is based in the US (New York City), and the role is designed for a high degree of autonomy during EMEA and APAC business hours, with regular touchpoints during overlapping hours to stay aligned on priorities, positions, and escalations. You will draft, negotiate, and close enterprise and mid-market SaaS agreements, partner and channel deals, and cross-border commercial transactions, with primary focus on EMEA and shared responsibility for APAC. You will also help shape how Postman's commercial legal function operates internationally, adapting US contracting standards, playbooks, and processes for global markets while maintaining consistency across the legal team. This is a high-visibility role for a commercial lawyer who wants to help build an international legal function, not just maintain one.
