About the role
A World-Changing Company
Palantir builds the world’s leading software for data-driven decisions and operations. By bringing the right data to the people who need it, our platforms empower our partners to develop lifesaving drugs, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, and more.
The Role
Palantir’s in‑house legal team works to proactively address legal issues so that Palantir can continue to drive positive impact in the world. As Corporate Counsel, you will serve as a key advisor on corporate governance and securities matters, leveraging your public company experience to ensure our compliance and support our growth as a public company. You will take ownership of critical areas such as investment management, trading compliance, strategic transactions, corporate governance, and public company reporting. In addition, you’ll play a central role in structuring, implementing, and administering equity compensation plans for employees globally, collaborating with cross-functional teams to align our equity programs with Palantir’s mission and values. This is a high-impact role where you will consistently work cross-functionally and with leadership teams (including the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Legal Officer), and will translate complex legal requirements into clear communications and actionable strategies that support Palantir’s continued innovation and success as a public company.
In this role, you will join a team that values broad-based experience and a relentless drive to learn quickly in a dynamic environment. We prioritize practical solutions and outcomes that ensure compliance with public company requirements while maximizing benefits for our employee base and advancing Palantir’s mission. Your ability to adapt, think creatively, and work collaboratively will be essential as you take on complex issues and transactions.
Responsibilities
- Advise on a range of complex equity and corporate/securities issues.
- Help manage public company filings and related internal processes.
- Work on Board, Committee, and other corporate governance matters for Palantir and our subsidiaries and joint ventures.
- Assist with a variety of corporate and securities transactions, including M&A and other strategic investments.
- Assist in management and administration of Palantir’s equity portfolio.
Requirements
- JD and active bar membership (or equivalent international qualification).
- 4+ years’ experience as a corporate or securities attorney at a top firm or in-house (a combination is even better!)
- Knowledge of and experience with public company reporting requirements, corporate governance and board matters, and securities and strategic transactions.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to distill complexity into clarity.
