Palantir’s in-house legal team works to proactively address legal issues so that Palantir can continue to drive positive impact in the world. As Commercial/IP Counsel, you will be responsible for all aspects of commercial contracting, including deal structuring, and drafting, review, and negotiation of revenue generating contracts. In particular, you will be an Intellectual Property subject matter expert on the commercial contracting team, owning strategic licensing transactions, Intellectual Property components of corporate transactions, and other complex Intellectual Property transactions. You will also be integral to developing scalable infrastructure for providing legal support to Palantir's rapidly growing portfolio of commercial customers, and play a strategic role in helping Palantir achieve its goals in a time of dynamic growth.

We’re a team that values both creativity and teamwork. Whether operating solo or collaboratively, we endeavor to achieve great results on projects of all types. You'll be given open ended objectives and will find ways to turn them into outcomes. By focusing on the broad vision without losing sight of the details, you'll bring large and multi-phase projects to successful completion while prioritizing team outcomes over individual wins. You are able to deliver complex information in an understandable way, and can manage high touch business partners in a constantly shifting landscape.

Our ideal candidate should enjoy the responsibility and autonomy that comes with owning problems and finding solutions. You can effectively navigate a diverse organization involving a wide variety of audiences, including under time-sensitive situations. You are ready to jump into a deal or product development sprint at a moment’s notice and become an expert on the intricate details of the contracts and technology that enable Palantir to implement its cutting-edge technology to solve real-world problems. You are passionate about conceiving and implementing scalable systems that increase your impact, and that of the Commercial Contracting and Intellectual Property teams.
