Full Job Description
About The Position WEKA is transforming how organizations build, run, and scale AI and accelerated compute workflows with NeuralMesh™, our intelligent, adaptive mesh storage system. Unlike traditional data infrastructures, which become more fragile as compute environments grow and performance demands increase, NeuralMesh becomes faster, stronger, and more efficient as it scales, providing a flexible, adaptable foundation for enterprise and agentic AI innovation that maximizes GPU utilization, accelerates time to first token, and lowers the cost of innovation. WEKA is a growth-stage company backed by world-class venture capital investors and AI infrastructure industry leaders. Our technology, purpose-built for AI, has garnered over 140 patents and is trusted by more than 30% of Fortune 50 enterprises, as well as the world's leading hyperscalers, neoclouds, and AI innovators. Our team is customer-obsessed and works accountably, boldly, and collaboratively to ensure their success. If we sound like your kind of people, join us! About The Role WEKA’s General Counsel joined in 2025 as the company’s first in-house lawyer, and we are now hiring our second. This is a true build role: much legal infrastructure (including templates, playbooks, policies, approval workflows, and training) is in active development and being formalized as the function matures. The right candidate will be energized by the opportunity to create these foundations alongside a hands-on GC, not looking for a role where they execute within an established system. This individual will report directly to the General Counsel and own day-to-day commercial contracting across WEKA’s commercial models: enterprise term software licenses (deployed on-prem or in customer-managed cloud environments); neocloud arrangements that embed WEKA as the storage layer in partners’ AI cloud and infrastructure offerings; and WEKApod turnkey appliance transactions. Each model carries distinct license, IP, liability, and partner
