About the team/role
Reporting to Checkr’s Director of Product & Privacy Legal, the Product Counsel will provide practical, solutions-oriented legal guidance that helps Checkr build and launch products that are both innovative and compliant. You'll own day-to-day product counseling across the product lifecycle, advising on consumer protection, privacy, and emerging AI issues in a highly regulated environment. You'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Customer Success to help teams move fast while managing risk, directly supporting Checkr's growth as we scale new products and serve more customers. This role is ideal for someone looking for career growth, who is comfortable taking a generalist approach in learning new areas of the law, and who thrives in a fast-moving environment and wants to deepen expertise while shaping how products are built.
What you'll do
- Provide day-to-day legal counsel to Product and Engineering teams, from early design and requirements through launch and iteration
- Lead and execute legal reviews of new features and product changes, identifying risks early and recommending practical, business-friendly solutions
- Advise on consumer reporting, consumer protection, and privacy issues affecting Checkr's products, including FCRA, DPPA, GLBA, CCPA/CPRA, GDPR, and AI-related risk
- Partner with Customer Success to answer customer questions about product compliance, translating legal requirements into clear, credible responses
- Track regulatory developments, enforcement trends, and litigation affecting Checkr's products, and turn them into actionable guidance for product teams
- Contribute to scaling the Product & Privacy legal function by building and improving processes, templates, and playbooks that help the team move faster
What you bring
- J.D. from an accredited law school and active membership in good standing of at least one U.S. state bar
- 1+ years of experience practicing law, with meaningful exposure to product counseling, privacy, consumer protection, or technology law (in-house experience a plus), preferably with B2B and international experience
- Experience supporting products or businesses in a regulated industry and serving as internal subject matter expert, with working knowledge of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), CCPA, GDPR, AI-related risk, and related global frameworks a large plus
- Ability to calibrate risk to business objectives and product stage, and to deliver clear, actionable guidance to non-lawyers
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex legal concepts concisely and approachably
- An A-player mindset with a strong bias for action: you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes.
