As the legal counsel - privacy and compliance, your responsibilities will include:

  • Deliver legal advice to our R&D team (from a product and technology perspective) to align with business objectives and regulatory requirements on legal issues related to privacy and copyright.
  • Assist in the development, improvement and deployment of Coveo’s privacy program and processes (e.g. privacy assessments, vendor due diligence, risks documentation, internal audits, data processing addendums).
  • Partner with the Legal commercial team to support sales & procurement negotiations with respect to privacy, compliance and product-knowledge.
  • Develop and deliver privacy training and awareness programs for R&D teams and other internal stakeholders (e.g. Legal commercial, Security or Sales teams). 
  • Provide general legal compliance support (e.g. intellectual property, export-control).
What we are looking for:

The candidate should have extensive experience working on technically complicated privacy issues, communicating with sophisticated product and engineering teams and the ability to take a practical and proactive problem-solving approach to efficiently assess privacy issues. 

Here is what will qualify you for the role:
  • 3+ years of experience in privacy, data protection with a strong focus on product counsel.
  • Bachelor of Laws (L.L.B.) or Juris Doctor (J.D.) or equivalent law degree and eligibility to practice law where located. 
  • Ability to think outside of the box and be able to provide pragmatic advice beyond the letter of the law while helping Coveo mature its approach to privacy. 
  • Proficient in managing  complex issues with empathy, humility and professionalism. 
What would make you stand out:
  • Prior in-house experience within the SaaS industry, ideally advising on the implementation of artificial intelligence and large language models.
  • Proven team player, skilled at collaborating effectively and earning the trust of cross-functional colleagues.
  • Proficiency in privacy by design principles and their application in product development contexts is highly desirable.
  • CIPP certification preferred.
