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.

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.

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.
