Job summary

Troveo AI is seeking a Senior Counsel to join the senior leadership team and drive transactional legal work for data and content licensing. You will draft, negotiate, and close agreements with content owners and AI platforms, handling complex multi-party structures and ensuring IP protection.

You will guide on data privacy, regulatory strategy, and vendor negotiations, while shaping an AI-native legal function and coordinating with outside counsel.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of transactional experience, including meaningful time at a major law firm; in-house experience at a technology or media company a plus.
• Deep commercial contracts background centered on IP licensing, content/data licensing, or technology transactions.
• Proven ability to run negotiations independently — setting posture, holding positions, and knowing when to trade.
• Strong drafting command of license scope, sublicensing mechanics, indemnity caps, audit rights, term and survival.
• Familiarity with AI/ML training data issues, or ability to get up to speed fast.
• Genuine enthusiasm for AI tooling in legal practice.

Responsibilities

• Negotiate and close data license and sublicense agreements with AI labs, data platforms, and resellers; manage redline cycles and close open issues.
• Own and evolve inbound template suite (content and business data license agreements, riders, annexes), with outside counsel on major revisions.
• Structure complex multi-party arrangements: pass-through sublicensing, consent instruments, and back-to-back partner agreements.
• Advise on copyright/IP issues at the frontier of AI training, including fair use, exclusivity, and provenance representations.
• Counsel on data privacy and regulatory strategy, including PII handling and state data-broker regimes.
• Handle contractor, services, and MSA/SOW agreements where Troveo is hiring principal.
• Manage outside counsel efficiently on specialist matters.
• Help build a modern, AI-native legal function with AI-assisted contract review and knowledge tooling.
