Job Description
About Gigs
At Gigs, we're building the operating system for mobile services—a platform that lets tech companies embed global connectivity into their products effortlessly.
Just as Stripe lets any business add a payment button in seconds, Gigs empowers platforms to weave in connectivity—bridging the traditional world of telecom with modern tech. From fintechs launching mobile services to HR platforms offering work phone plans, we automate provisioning and remove telecom complexity.
Our team of around 100 people across the US and Europe, backed by nearly $100 million in funding from Ribbit Capital, Google, and Y Combinator. As one of the fastest-growing tech companies, bringing together early-stage engineers, product builders, and business athletes from companies like Stripe, Airbnb, and Shopify. We’re tackling deep technical and regulatory challenges to make connectivity truly seamless.
If you’re driven by curiosity, creativity, and the chance to shape the future of telecom, we’d love to hear from you.
The Role
We’re looking for a driven and enthusiastic Senior Commercial Counsel to join our global Legal team. In this role, you’ll support a wide range of topics—including contract negotiations, drafting templates, and handling general commercial matters.
What you will do
• Provide strategic legal support across key functions—including Sales, Account Management, Partnerships, Product, and Regulatory—on a global scale.
• Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of commercial agreements, including complex, multi-country service, licensing, and partnership contracts.
• Support global legal and business initiatives, from implementing regulatory requirements in our commercial templates to contributing to cross-functional projects.
• Drive legal automation and tooling efforts to scale our contracting process and increase team efficiency.
• Operate independently across teams, taking ownership and driving outcomes in a fast-paced environment.
• Build trusted relationships with stakeholders across the company and act as a strategic partner to the business.
• Deliver legal training and guidance to commercial teams worldwide.
What we are looking for
• You have 4+ years of legal experience—whether in-house or at a law firm—with strong commercial contracting or transactional chops.You’re comfortable collaborating with legal teams and stakeholders across the US, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC.
• You’re a true team player who sharpens ideas through collaboration and values input from diverse perspectives.
• You have strong interpersonal skills and can work seamlessly with internal teams and external partners across functions and cultures.
• You take initiative and ownership, operating with autonomy and a business-owner mindset.
• You’re curious, ask good questions, and take responsibility for your own learning and development.
• You’re dependable, adaptable, detail-oriented, and driven to get things done.
• You can break down complex legal concepts into clear, digestible explanations—and know how to train others when needed.
• You thrive in high-volume, fast-paced environments, and know how to prioritize, structure your work, and drive projects to the finish line.
• Knowledge of and experience with global data privacy laws and regulations is a plus.
Before You Apply...
The truth is, what we're building isn't easy. We expect a lot, and operate with urgency and ownership. This won’t be the right place for everyone, and that’s okay.
This role probably isn't a fit if:
• You need a lot of structure, or layers of process to do your best work
• You prefer to specialize narrowly and wait for direction rather than taking initiative
• You’re uncomfortable making decisions with imperfect information or wearing multiple hats
• You’re looking for a “big company” setup — we’re still building many things for the first time
But if you’re excited by the idea of building from zero, working with passion, and leaving your mark on something that matters — we’d love to meet you.
Work at Gigs
At Gigs, we value in-person collaboration. We believe the best ideas, decisions, and relationships are built when teams spend meaningful time together, and our culture is designed around that belief. We support flexibility where it makes sense. Some focused work can be done remotely, and not every role or week looks the same. You should expect regular time in one of our hubs, as well as occasional travel for team workshops, customer meetings, and Gigs Republic, our bi-annual company off-site. Our offices are designed to feel like home-inspired workspaces, with plants, thoughtful tools, and small, tight-knit teams that make collaboration feel natural, energizing, and effective.

At Gigs, we believe in rewarding excellence. We offer competitive compensation and stock options because we see you as a true partner in our growth. We also provide stipends for your home office or work setup, a budget for learning and development to fuel your career, and of course, a free phone and international data plan
