You should be negotiating license deals for the next unicorn, structuring IP transactions for Series C startups, and advising founders on distribution agreements that will define their market strategynot drowning in discovery or babysitting diligence checklists.

You're ready to be the commercial lawyer entrepreneurs call when the deal matters, not just another transactional cog.

A top tier Silicon Valley-founded firm is expanding its legendary Technology Transactions practice to meet explosive demand from high-growth tech companies, from seed-stage startups to publicly traded innovators.

• Draft and negotiate IP licenses, development agreements, partnerships, and distribution deals for cutting-edge tech companies
• Handle commercial transactions for AI, SaaS, biotech, fintech, and hardware companies at every growth stage
• Work on the IP side of M&A, IPOs, venture financings, and other multi-disciplinary deals

The Catch :

This practice moves at startup speed. You need to be comfortable with ambiguity, quick turnarounds, and clients who are building something that's never been done before. If you need predictable 9-5 hours and perfectly defined projects, this isn't it.

But if you want to work on deals that actually matterfor companies that are defining the futurethis is your shot.
