Why Socure?
Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.
We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.
Job Summary
Socure’s legal team is seeking a Commercial Counsel. Reporting to our Head of Commercial Legal or a Senior Legal Counsel, you will have a chance to help shape the company’s legal function, build processes and policies, and partner with Sales, Finance, Product, and Engineering teams, as well as other attorneys. We offer an exciting, fast-paced company environment, with a shared mission to eliminate identity fraud and lead the identity verification market.
This is a great opportunity for someone who is passionate about their work, enjoys taking ownership of projects, and is skilled at identifying pragmatic solutions.
