Lawyer jobs in Boston, MA

About the role

Tenstorrent is hiring a Senior In-House Counsel to own key legal functions and serve as a hands-on partner to teams across the organization. In this role, you will take end-to-end ownership of the areas you support—guiding teams through the entire contract lifecycle, from intake and drafting through negotiation, execution, and ongoing management—while minimizing legal and compliance risk and serving as a trusted advisor to internal stakeholders, external partners, and vendors.

What you'll bring

• A practical, solutions-oriented advisor.
• You balance business priorities with thoughtful risk management and can tell a real risk from a theoretical one, which is what lets you lead end-to-end negotiations on high-value strategic transactions and close impactful deals without leaving the company exposed.
• A commercial contracting generalist.
• You move comfortably across MSAs, SOWs, software and technology licenses, SaaS and cloud services agreements, NDAs, data processing and AI addenda, marketing arrangements, and vendor/supplier agreements, and you manage them through the full lifecycle rather than handing them off at signature.
• A builder, not just a reviewer.
• You create the templates, playbooks, fallback positions, and CLM workflows that let Sales, Channel, and Supply Chain scale without a legal bottleneck, and you reach for AI tooling to make legal operations faster and better.
• An owner and a people-first communicator.
• You carry your work end to end, manage competing priorities independently, pivot quickly as a startup's priorities shift, and communicate with clarity and purpose across every team and level of the organization.
• Experience drafting, structuring, negotiating, executing, and managing complex commercial agreements across the full contract lifecycle (MSAs, SOWs, software and technology licenses, SaaS and cloud services agreements, NDAs, data processing (DPA) and AI addenda, hardware sales, channel partner agreements, marketing arrangements, and vendor/supplier agreements), including the templates, playbooks, and fallback positions that let the business contract at scale.
• Supply chain & manufacturing.
• Experience drafting and negotiating supply chain and manufacturing agreements, including foundry, manufacturing, procurement, supply, logistics, and third-party logistics (3PL) agreements.
• Experience advising on global data protection, privacy, cybersecurity, and cross-border data transfer issues: DPAs, SCCs and transfer mechanisms, security terms, audit rights, breach and incident notification, and permitted data use, under frameworks such as GDPR, CCPA, and APPI.
