About the Role

Genius AI is quickly scaling across its AI-native platform and new business areas, growing in ways that bring meaningful new complexity. Legal is an important part of that foundation, and we need a sharp, pragmatic legal leader who can keep pace with a business that's moving fast. You'll be a true enabler of how we scale, partnering directly with leadership to clear the path for the business through thoughtful risk management and judgement. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility, high judgement role with broad scope across commercial, corporate, employment, privacy, and regulatory matters.

You will report to the Chief Business Officer. This role is based in New York City and operates in an in-person environment. We are in the office for most of the work week.

10+ years of legal experience, with meaningful time at a top-tier law firm and in-house at a high-growth tech company

Already using AI tools across your whole workflow and able to use them to meaningfully change how you’re running a legal team of the future
Low ego, high ownership mentality — you're the most senior legal voice here and you're still happy to be hands-on
