About The Role & Team

The Corporate Counsel will play a key role on Amplitude’s legal team working with cross-functional groups across the company and directly interfacing with our employees, customers, and partners. The position will be based in our San Francisco office and will report to the VP of Legal.

 As Amplitude’s Corporate Counsel, you will: 

  • negotiate and draft a wide range of commercial contracts, including master services agreements, professional services agreements, partnership agreements, reseller agreements, and other types of agreements with customers in support of the global sales team.
  • take on responsibility for the entire client contracting cycle – from initial draft to execution, working with business teams to drive contract negotiations to timely and successful completion.
  • draft and maintain standard agreements (nondisclosure agreements, master service agreements, partnership agreements, reseller agreements, consulting agreements, vendor agreements, terms of service and privacy policy).
  • develop and administer internal processes to assist employees, ensure quick delivery of legal service, and review compliance.
  • provide practical and strategic business-focused advice to all internal business clients, with the ability to summarize and communicate complex legal concepts, in order to achieve business objectives, mitigate risks and meet legal obligations.
  • advise on data and privacy law issues, particularly legal requirements regarding COPPA, CCPA and other state and international laws such as the GDPR.
  • work on various other matters - some legal, some not.

You'll be a great addition to the team if you have:

  • a JD from an accredited institution and are a member of the California bar in good standing
  • practiced law for at least 5 years and have a mix of in-house and law firm experience
  • experience reviewing, drafting and negotiating commercial contracts
  • excellent business judgment and are both detail-oriented and practical
  • a highly responsive and service-oriented attitude. You interpret “I need it soon” to mean today or tomorrow
  • the ability to be a self-starter who can handle a fast-paced, high-growth and informal start-up environment where there may be a good deal of ambiguity and a bit of controlled chaos
  • great communication skills and you know how to talk and write like a human, not a lawyer
