About Mavria
Mavria's mission is to build the industrial capacity America needs to lead in AI. We believe that sustaining America's AI leadership requires an unprecedented expansion of power, manufacturing, supply chains and physical infrastructure.

Our founders are serial entrepreneurs who met at the U.S. Department of Energy, working on some of the country's hardest energy and infrastructure projects. There, they saw a widening gap: AI labs and cloud providers were racing to scale compute, while the infrastructure underneath them was still built one custom project at a time, on timelines measured in years.

We founded Mavria to close that gap. We are building to industrialize intelligence: turning the physical infrastructure AI runs on into products we manufacture, deploy and improve with every build.

We're starting with data centers. Our first product, Terrain, is a factory-built data center platform. Terrain 01 is being built in Houston now, and we've raised $130M as of October 2026 to accelerate our roadmap.

Terrain is our first product, not the limit of our ambition. We intend to eliminate the physical bottlenecks that constrain American AI leadership and build one of the foundational infrastructure companies of the AI era.

How we build
At Mavria, three principles guide how we work:

Ambition: We want to build a generational company. To do that, we build capabilities, not just products. Terrain is our first product, not our last – and we seek to eliminate strategic bottlenecks across the entire AI supply chain.
Urgency: AI moves in weeks, while infrastructure tends to move in years. We match the frontier's pace by making decisions quickly, building in parallel and securing critical supply ahead of demand. We surface problems early and never compromise on safety or engineering rigor.
Ownership: When we say we'll do something, we do it. Keeping our word is how we stand apart, and taking radical ownership over our scope and our domain is how we build trust – internally and externally – while moving fast.

Role scope
As the team lead for Mavria's legal staff, you'll work side by side with our co-founder, Seth Cohen, to shape Mavria's legal strategy and advise our leadership team and board. You'll focus on the questions that shape the company: how we're regulated, how we're financed and governed, and how we manage risk as we scale Terrain across the country. Because you have flexibility to build a legal team, you can stay focused on issues that impact Mavria at the company, state, and national level. You will:

Advise leadership and the board: Partner with Seth on strategy, major transactions, governance and the decisions that carry the most risk for the company.
Get ahead of regulation: Track and shape the energy, utility, permitting, data center and AI policy changes that affect how and where we build, and turn them into clear guidance for the business.
Lead the financings: Work with our finance team and outside counsel on equity, debt and project financings, from term sheet to close.
Run corporate governance: Own board matters, entity structure and equity administration.
Manage enterprise risk: Own insurance, disputes, employment matters and regulatory compliance, and fix problems before they start.
Grow the legal team: Work with Seth to shape the legal team as Mavria scales, and lead the high-stakes agreements and escalations that need senior judgment.

What We're Looking For:
For this role, we're looking for a senior legal leader with the following qualities:

Seasoned: You're a licensed attorney with 15+ years of experience, including time at a leading law firm and as in-house counsel at a fast growing company. You also have extensive experience managing outside counsel.
Regulatory depth: You know energy, utility, or state and federal infrastructure regulation, and you can see how policy changes will affect a business before they land.
A strategic advisor: You've advised executives and boards on financings, governance and high-stakes decisions.
Practical: You give clear answers, size risk honestly and help the business move fast.
A partner: You work well alongside founders and a small legal team, and you want to help that team grow as the company scales.
Experience as general counsel or deputy general counsel at an energy, utility, data center or infrastructure company is especially relevant, as is time in government or regulatory practice and project finance experience. We value ability over years or titles.
To apply: Share your background and an example of a regulatory, financing or governance matter you led.

Benefits:

Competitive total compensation package
Medical, dental, and vision insurance is 100% paid for the employee
Retirement Plan with a 3.5% company match
Flexible time off
