You Are

You are an experienced cybersecurity attorney who understands that the most effective legal advice sits at the intersection of technology, regulatory requirements, contractual commitments, and business risk. You have developed the judgment to distinguish issues that require immediate escalation from those that can be managed through a practical, risk-based solution.

Cyber incident response is a significant part of your practice. You have advised through fast-moving incidents in which the facts develop over time, coordinated with information security and forensic teams, assessed legal and regulatory notification obligations, and helped business leaders make defensible decisions under pressure.

You are also comfortable negotiating cybersecurity terms in customer and vendor agreements. You can work with technical stakeholders to understand what the company can operationally support and translate that position into clear, commercially workable contract language.

At Synopsys, you will work on important cybersecurity matters at global scale, alongside colleagues who value sound judgment, collaboration, and practical problem-solving.
