Infleqtion is a global quantum technology company building quantum computers, sensors, and networks for commercial, industrial, and national security applications. As a publicly traded company on the NYSE under ticker INFQ, we operate at the intersection of advanced research, disciplined engineering, and market execution.

Built on deep scientific expertise, we are now accelerating our commercial and public company capabilities to support disciplined growth at scale. Legal plays a central role in enabling that transition.

Position Summary:

Infleqtion is seeking a Senior Counsel, Commercial & Strategic Transactions to report directly to the Chief Legal Officer and serve as a critical legal partner for commercial contracting and strategic transactions, working closely with commercial, product, engineering, and operational leaders.

This role requires strong transactional discipline, business judgment, and the ability to operate effectively in a high-growth, technically sophisticated environment where urgency and excellence must coexist.

Core Responsibilities

• Structure bespoke, high-impact transactions aligned with long-term enterprise value.

• Provide risk-balanced guidance that enables revenue generation while protecting intellectual property, regulatory posture, and public company obligations.
• Support engagements involving government and regulated customers. Experience with government contracting frameworks (e.g., FAR/DFARS) is a plus but not required.
• Coordinate with internal stakeholders on export control and national security considerations. Familiarity with ITAR/EAR is a plus.
• Support strategic collaborations, joint development initiatives, and other growth-oriented transactions as needed.
• Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of agreements, including:

Customer and strategic partnership agreements

Government and research contracts

Licensing and technology development agreements

SaaS and data agreements

Vendor and procurement agreements

Public Company & Operational Integration:

• Partner with Finance and leadership to align contractual structures with revenue recognition, disclosure controls, and public reporting requirements.

• Contribute to scalable legal processes, playbooks, and approval frameworks to increase velocity without sacrificing discipline.
• Deliver targeted training to commercial and technical teams on contracting standards, risk awareness, and compliance fundamentals.
• Support cross-functional corporate, regulatory, and governance matters as needed.

Requirements

• JD from an accredited law school with strong academic credentials.
• 6+ years of relevant legal experience, including substantial responsibility for complex commercial transactions; top-tier law firm training strongly preferred.
• Significant experience negotiating complex commercial agreements.
• Experience in technology, advanced research, aerospace, defense, or regulated industries preferred.
• Comfort operating in a lean environment with high ownership and limited bureaucracy.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple reporting deadlines and competing priorities with precision.
• Strong executive communication skills and ability to translate legal risk into practical business guidance.

Cultural and Performance Expectations:

We are building a high-accountability, execution-focused culture. Success in this role requires:

• An ownership mindset with bias toward action.
• Ability to balance urgency with technical and legal excellence.
• Willingness to coach business teams and actively seek coaching and feedback in return.
• Comfort giving and receiving direct feedback.
• Discipline in documentation, process development, and follow-through.
• Intellectual curiosity about emerging technologies and regulated markets.
• Resilience in a resource-constrained, fast-evolving environment.

This is a builder role for a lawyer who wants to help shape the operating model of a scaling public technology company.
