• 4+ years of relevant legal experience, preferably advising fast‑paced healthcare, health‑tech, technology, or other regulated organizations, either in‑house or in private practice.
• Demonstrated experience drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial contracts.
• Ability to identify and assess legal and business issues efficiently, evaluate risk, and provide practical recommendations grounded in sound business judgment.
• Strong business acumen and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a busy, evolving environment.
• Exceptional drafting, negotiation, communication, organizational, project‑management, and prioritization skills.
• Strong sense of ownership and accountability for assigned work.
• High integrity, professionalism, intellectual curiosity, and a willingness to learn and grow.
