Privacy & AI Counsel
Attorneys in this role serve as primary legal partners to product and engineering teams building AI-powered features and platforms, advising on everything from model development and data governance to consumer protection and emerging AI regulations. They translate complex legal requirements—spanning privacy laws, AI governance frameworks, and responsible use policies—into practical guidance that enables teams to ship quickly while managing novel AI-specific risks like model behavior, training data provenance, and liability for generated content. These counsel typically embed within cross-functional organizations alongside product, safety, and compliance teams, building scalable processes and frameworks rather than simply reviewing work after the fact, and often serve as internal experts shaping company positions on evolving AI regulation.
