We're seeking an energetic Product & Regulatory Counsel to support our mission to make personal transportation safer, cleaner, and more enjoyable. As a trusted legal partner, you’ll play a key role in ensuring compliance with evolving and increasingly complex regulations as we bring our groundbreaking all-electric robotaxi service from early previews to commercial reality.

  • Support the broader cross-functional regulatory team (including safety and policy) in connection with permit applications, regulator engagement, legal interpretations, and pending state legislation and rulemaking activities
  • Qualifications:

  • 6+ years of legal experience focused on regulatory reporting and compliance matters 
  • Proven ability to excel in a fast-paced and innovative environment, coupled with the skills to “play out of position” as needed 
  • Demonstrated inquisitiveness, with a passion for learning and independent problem-solving
  • Excellent business and legal judgment, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
  • Juris Doctor (JD) degree with outstanding academic credentials and admission to at least one state bar 
  • Bonus Qualifications:

  • Experience working for an automaker, autonomous driving technology company, government safety agency, or law firm supporting the same
  • Experience working for a transportation network company, and/or significant experience advising on ride-hail programs, regulations, and permitting requirements
  • Experience responding to government inquiries or investigations
