Big firm experience and/or experience as in-house counsel in a global technology/software/cloud company.
Advanced knowledge of contract law, with strong knowledge of licensing and distribution channels.
Advanced knowledge and experience in contract management discipline, process, strategy, and execution, and drafting and negotiating key intellectual property provisions.
Able to confidently and independently lead complex negotiations, and to raise and resolve issues directly, with client, partner and supplier representatives, in diverse global situations.
