Senior Counsel
About the role
The Challenge to Solve
Build a legal function that can keep pace with a company growing in every direction at once — new technology, new markets, new complexity. The reward: the kind of breadth, ownership, and impact that most attorneys don't get until much later in their careers, if at all.
The Role
Most senior counsel roles ask you to go deep in one lane. This isn't that role. At Slice, you'll work across commercial contracts, FinTech, artificial intelligence, employment law, IP strategy, litigation and product counseling — building real breadth across a global, fast-moving business and reporting directly to the Head of Legal.
For the right attorney, this is a career-defining opportunity: the chance to move beyond a narrow specialty, take genuine ownership across multiple practice areas, and grow into a global legal role as the company scales. You'll work in close partnership with the Head of Legal Operations, who owns the systems and infrastructure that support your work — so you can focus on the substance.
If you trained at a top firm and are ready to bring that rigor into an in-house environment where you can see the full picture of a business, we want to meet you.
Key focus areas include:
Commercial Contracting
- Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements including vendor contracts, SaaS agreements, partnership deals, NDAs, and data processing agreements.

- Manage and coordinate IP filings and enforcement activity with outside counsel.
- Identify and protect Slice's key IP assets as the company continues to innovate.
Product Counseling
- Serve as a trusted legal partner to Product and Engineering teams, advising on privacy, data, regulatory compliance, and legal risk in product development.
- Review new product features and initiatives to identify legal issues early and build solutions that support — rather than slow — the business.
