Job Description
Lead Counsel managing legal needs for Boulevard's payment platform and advising on various legal matters. Collaborate with teams while operating autonomously in a fast-growing company.
Responsibilities:
- Run commercial deals and answer regulatory and product questions associated with a payments platform in a regulated market.
- Handle the everyday legal needs of a fast-growing company mostly on your own judgment.
- Work autonomously, partner directly with teams, and escalate genuinely novel, high-risk, or strategic matters.
- Serve as the dedicated legal partner to a portfolio of product and business teams.
- Advise on a broad range of legal matters, including payments and FinTech, healthcare/MedSpa compliance, consumer protection, marketing, privacy, data governance, intellectual property, and dispute resolution.
- Lead the drafting, review, negotiation, and management of commercial agreements.
- Own and continuously improve contract templates, playbooks, and legal processes.
Requirements:
- 6 to 11 years of combined law-firm and in-house experience, ideally including time at a SaaS, payments/fintech, or other regulated technology company.
- JD from an accredited law school and an active license to practice law in at least one US state.
- A track record of operating independently, owning matters end to end, and being trusted to make and defend judgment calls with limited oversight.
- Strong command of technology and commercial contracting, with the instinct to balance risk and speed.
- Comfort moving across commercial, regulatory, privacy, corporate, and employment questions, and the resourcefulness to get smart fast on something unfamiliar.
- A practical, solutions-oriented style; you make complex issues clear to non-lawyers and are known as an enabler, not a gatekeeper.
- You do your best work with incomplete information, competing priorities, and a fast-moving business.
- Exposure to payments or fintech regulation (money movement, processor or card-network rules) is nice to have.
- Familiarity with healthcare, wellness, or other regulated consumer industries is nice to have.
- Privacy experience (CCPA/CPRA, GDPR) beyond contract-level data terms is nice to have.
- Experience as an early or sole in-house attorney at a high-growth company is nice to have.
Benefits:
- 401(k) match plus dental, medical, vision, and life insurance.
- Flexible vacation day policy.
- Fully remote work with a monthly work from home stipend.
- Family planning resources and specialized support programs.
- Equity opportunities.
