Legal Operations Manager

Gamma doesn't have a legal operations function yet. You'll build it. As our first dedicated legal ops hire, you'll report to the Head of Legal and own the systems, processes, and tooling for a legal team that's scaling fast. Gamma has over 70 million users, is profitable with $100M+ ARR, and is pushing hard into enterprise. That means a rapidly growing volume of commercial contracts, vendor agreements, privacy workflows, and compliance requests— all of which need infrastructure behind them. This is a ground-up build role. You'll assess what we need, select and implement the right tools, and create the workflows that let our lawyers focus on substantive legal work instead of administrative overhead. Our team has a strong in-office culture and works in person 4–5 days per week in San Francisco. We love working together to stay creative and connected, with flexibility to work from home when focus matters most. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Draft, review, and negotiate the full range of commercial agreements: customer MSAs, order forms, DPAs, vendor contracts, NDAs, and partnership deals on both the sell side and buy side - Run enterprise deal cycles alongside the GTM, including negotiations with sophisticated legal teams at large counterparties - Evolve Gamma’s data privacy compliance program - Advise Product and Engineering on privacy-by-design, AI compliance (including EU AI Act readiness), and data handling practices - Help build scalable legal processes, playbooks, and templates to support Gamma’s growing B2B motion WHAT YOU'LL BRING - 5+ years of legal operations experience, with at least 2 years in-house at a technology or SaaS company - Demonstrated experience building legal ops infrastructure from early stage; you’ve selected and implemented a CLM (Ironclad, DocuSign CLM, Juro, or similar), built intake workflows, and stood up reporting - Strong technical fluency: you’re comfortable evaluating legal tech tools and configuring workflows - Experience managing contract lifecycle processes across both customer (sell-side) and vendor (buy-side) agreements - Working familiarity with privacy compliance operations (DPA tracking, subprocessor management, DSR workflows) - Project management discipline: you can run multiple concurrent workstreams, hit deadlines, and hold cross-functional stakeholders accountable - A bias toward building systems over doing things manually NICE TO HAVE - Experience at a company navigating the transition from consumer/prosumer to enterprise sales - Familiarity with SOC 2 audit processes and security compliance coordination - Experience with AI-related compliance workflows or emerging AI regulatory frameworks
