Assistant General Counsel, Commercial

About the role

Baseten is the AI inference infrastructure that serves the traffic and endpoints behind the most innovative AI-native and enterprise products in the market. We're hiring an Assistant General Counsel, Commercial to own our commercial deal surface as we scale from a high-growth startup into an enterprise-grade AI infrastructure platform. You'll be our primary commercial contracts attorney - embedded directly in the business and partnering day-to-day with Sales, Finance, and Engineering. At Baseten, commercial and product are the same thing. What we build and sell is inference - compute, orchestration, deployment, and optimization delivered as the production backbone for our customers' products. Closing a deal here means understanding multi-tenancy, model deployment, latency and throughput SLAs, and how a customer's workload actually runs on our platform. This is a role for a commercially minded product lawyer who wants to sit at that intersection, not run a siloed contracts function. You'll own enterprise commercial contracting end to end, and you'll also own several related strategic surfaces, including model marketplace initiatives and go-to-market partnerships. Your center of gravity is the commercial deal surface; like everyone on this team, you'll also flex onto cross-functional and one-off work where you're needed.
