At OPSWAT, we’re on a mission to protect the world’s most critical infrastructure—from nuclear facilities and global banks to the largest manufacturers and government networks. We're growing fast—double digits year after year—with a global go-to-market team across more than 20 countries. As we scale, we need legal leadership that can move with the business while protecting what matters most: our customers, our reputation, and our mission.

As Senior Commercial Counsel, you'll be a strategic partner to our go-to-market teams and a trusted advisor across the business. You'll own high-stakes negotiations with some of the most security-conscious organizations on the planet and help build the legal foundation for our next phase of growth.

• Serve as a strategic partner to sales, product, revenue operations, procurement, and executive leaders, balancing speed with smart risk management in a fast-growth environment
• Build, maintain, and continuously improve commercial playbooks and contract templates that make the business faster, more consistent, and ready to scale
• Deliver practical, business-aligned legal guidance that protects the company while accelerating long-term growth
• Develop and roll out legal enablement and training that levels up the entire go-to-market team
• Stay ahead of the laws and regulations shaping our industry so your compliance advice is always sound

What You’ll Bring

• 10+ years of legal experience in commercial transactions, in-house and/or at a law firm, ideally in B2B SaaS or cybersecurity
• Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school and active membership in good standing with at least one U.S. state bar
• A track record of closing complex deals with large, regulated organizations
• Sharp communication skills, strong business acumen, and a pragmatic, solutions-first mindset
• The composure to manage competing priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
• The ability to work independently while collaborating effectively across teams
• A professional presence that earns the confidence of senior stakeholders, both internal and external
• An appetite to grow into a broader leadership role within a scaling legal function
