Job description

Meta needs an Associate Attorney who can turn Strategic Planning into outcomes, not just slides, and we'd rather show you than tell you. This Associate Attorney role hands junior talent $40,000 - $60,000, a full-time arrangement in NY, and the latitude to call the shots.

Key Responsibilities

• Turn ambiguous Legal Writing requests into shipped, measurable outcomes
• Keep the Meta backlog ruthlessly honest about what's truly next
• Carry general projects from napkin sketch to Buffalo, NY rollout
• Keep Meta leadership honest with numbers they can act on
• Translate fuzzy stakeholder asks into a crisp Collaboration plan
• Convert HIPAA Compliance chaos into a backlog someone can actually work
• Track key metrics and report findings to your manager each week

What You'll Bring

• A Meta mindset: scrappy today, scalable tomorrow
• Real Contract Drafting chops, plus the Bluebook curiosity to keep growing
• Working knowledge of Bluebook alongside transferable HIPAA Compliance chops
• At least 1 years of standing behind your own estimates
• The kind of curiosity that reads the docs before asking

Meta was founded on a hunch that general could be far less awful, and Buffalo turned out to be the perfect place to prove it. Trust is the default setting at Meta; you have to actively spend it to lose it.

The whole offer in one line: $40,000 - $60,000, mentorship, benefits, and flexible full-time hours that respect the life you have in NY.

Right now, today, applications for the general role are landing and being read.
