Description:
About the role:Click Therapeutics is hiring a Corporate Counsel to join our Legal team, reporting directly to the Chief Legal Officer. This role will be an owner of commercial contracting for the company, managing the drafting, negotiation, and execution of a wide range of agreements from start to finish. The Corporate Counsel will also support the CLO in managing Click's privacy program, including HIPAA and other privacy compliance matters, and advise the business on emerging legal and regulatory questions around AI. This is a strong opportunity for an attorney ready to take on broad in-house responsibility, who works well independently and is excited to build something rather than just maintain it.
This position is based out of Click's headquarters located in Tribeca, NYC, at the center of one of the fastest-growing digital health communities. We have a hybrid working model that consists of at least 4 days in office each week.
Responsibilities:
- Own the full commercial contract lifecycle, including drafting, reviewing, redlining, and negotiating NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, vendor and consulting agreements, and BAAs.
- Serve as the legal team's primary point of contact for commercial contract questions across Operations, IT, BD, and other business teams.
- Build and maintain contract templates, negotiation playbooks, and approval guardrails to standardize terms and speed up turnaround time on recurring agreement types.
- Support the CLO in managing Click's privacy program, including HIPAA compliance, state and international privacy law requirements, data processing agreements, and privacy impact assessments.
- Advise the business on emerging AI-related legal and regulatory questions, including reviewing AI vendor terms and use case implications.
- Support the CLO on corporate governance matters, policy development, and compliance initiatives as they arise.
- Coordinate with outside counsel on matters requiring specialized expertise.
- Conduct legal research on commercial, privacy, and AI-related topics to support business decision-making
Qualifications:
- At Click, we aren't just looking for talent; we are looking for the next evolution of the modern professional. To us, AI is not a future possibility, it is a present-day prerequisite. We expect every Click colleague to have seamlessly integrated AI into their professional workflow and personal productivity, using it as a force multiplier to move faster, think deeper, and deliver superlative results that were previously out of reach. If you do not yet view AI as an essential partner in your daily pursuit of excellence, you will find it impossible to keep pace with our mission. High performers who harness AI technology to transcend traditional boundaries and set new benchmarks for professional excellence will thrive at Click.
- JD from an accredited law school and active bar membership in good standing (New York preferred).

- Experience with, or strong interest in, privacy law (HIPAA, CCPA and other state privacy laws, GDPR); some prior privacy experience preferred.
- Curiosity about AI and its emerging legal and regulatory landscape.
- A self-starter mindset, comfortable owning matters from start to finish and managing a varied workload independently as part of a lean legal team.
