Product Counsel

The Position

Our client is a social networking and online dating company, best known for its mobile app that primarily serves the LGBTQ+ community. They are seeking an experienced Product Counsel to support its legal team during a key coverage period. This is a product-first role partnering closely with product and engineering teams on consumer-facing features.

Responsibilities include:

• Advising on the development and launch of new product features and initiatives
• Reviewing product designs, user flows, and functionality to identify and mitigate legal risk
• Supporting core platform work, including terms of service, content moderation, and user-generated content
• Contributing to regulatory and compliance matters as needed

You’ll work alongside a highly thoughtful and fast-paced product team, providing practical, business-oriented legal guidance that supports innovation while managing risk. This is an ideal opportunity for a product-focused attorney who enjoys working at the intersection of product, technology, and law.

The ideal candidate brings strong experience advising on consumer-facing products in tech environments, along with high emotional intelligence and a low-ego, collaborative approach. This person should be comfortable working in a start-up environment, and operating autonomously while staying closely aligned with leadership.

ASAP start, 40+ hours per week, for an estimated 2-month duration. Fully remote and timezone agnostic.

The hourly rate for this assignment is expected to be between $104 and $114. This range is an estimate; an employee’s compensation will be based on the employee’s qualifications, skillset, and relevant experience, specific client needs, project requirements, and other considerations permitted by law.
