The Role

Terabase is seeking a versatile, business-minded Commercial Counsel to serve as a key legal partner across our sales, procurement, operations, and product contracting activities. This role will work closely with the VP of Legal to draft, review, negotiate, and manage a wide variety of commercial agreements, including customer agreements, SaaS and software agreements, vendor and procurement agreements, construction-related services agreements, partnership agreements, NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, order forms, and other contract lifecycle matters. 

This is primarily a commercial legal role, but we are looking for someone who can also help build and maintain the contracting infrastructure that allows a lean legal team to scale. The Commercial Counsel will help drive deals to closure, coordinate internal approvals, support contract intake and routing, improve templates and playbooks, and contribute to the ongoing development of Terabase's contract lifecycle management processes, including Ironclad workflows and contract data practices. 

The ideal candidate brings strong commercial contracting judgment, comfort with both technology and construction-related risk, and a practical legal operations mindset. This person should be able to switch fluidly between legal analysis, deal execution, stakeholder coordination, and process improvement without losing sight of business objectives.  

This role is remote, with infrequent travel (<10%).

Deal Execution and Contract Lifecycle Management 

• Project manage contracts and deals to closure by driving timelines, coordinating approvals, tracking open issues, and helping unblock negotiations.  

• Support contract intake, triage, routing, signature coordination, and post-signature handoff activities.  

• Help maintain organized contract records, contract status tracking, and key contract metadata.  

• Support contract repository hygiene, reporting, and data integrity to improve visibility into contract obligations, renewal dates, approval status, and deal risk.  

• Prepare or contribute to internal deal approval materials, including risk summaries, issue lists, and commercial/legal overviews for key stakeholders.  

Legal Operations, Ironclad, and Process Improvement 

• Help administer, improve, and scale Terabase's Ironclad workflows, including intake forms, approval flows, routing logic, templates, metadata fields, and contract repository practices.  

• Partner with Legal, Sales Ops, Supply Chain/Procurement, Finance, and other stakeholders to improve contracting workflows and reduce unnecessary friction.  

• Develop and maintain contracting playbooks, fallback positions, escalation procedures, clause libraries, template repositories, and training materials.  

• Identify process bottlenecks and recommend practical improvements to intake, approvals, contract routing, signature processes, and contract lifecycle automation.  

• Support implementation and continuous improvement of contracting policies, including when legal review is required, who approves deviations, and how exceptions are documented.  

• Help create lightweight dashboards, reports, or tracking tools to monitor contract volume, cycle times, approval status, and recurring negotiation issues.
