In-house IT Lawyer

About the Position

We’re seeking an In-house IT Lawyer to join Codebridge and grow together with the company. This role is ideal for those with a legal foundation and a desire for stability in an IT business. You won’t need to build everything from scratch - legal processes are already in place, and the legal function is set up. At the same time, you’ll have enough independence to make decisions, improve existing processes, and gradually grow into a stronger in-house role. You’ll work closely with leadership, handle contracts with international clients (EU & US), and support the business as it scales.

• Understanding federal, state, and local tax reporting requirements in the United States
• A solid grasp of the processes and standards required for SOC 2 compliance preparation
• Providing legal support in dispute resolution, including pre-trial processes
• Developing recommendations to optimize business processes from a legal perspective
