T-Mobile has an exciting opportunity for a bright, pragmatic, “business first” transactional attorney to join our team and help get stuff done. This role supports a commercial transactional portfolio spanning multiple customer-facing products, including (1) B2B Products (third-party products/services T-Mobile commercializes and resells) and (2) financial products (e.g., T-Mobile Money and related payments/financial services vendor ecosystem). The attorney will independently lead negotiations, provide risk-based counseling to senior business leaders, and partner cross-functionally across Legal, Finance, Product, Procurement, Risk, Cybersecurity, Privacy, Compliance, and Third-Party Risk Management.This role requires strong commercial judgment, the ability to translate legal risk into clear business decision frameworks, and comfort operating in a fast-paced, high-volume enterprise procurement environment.
This is a high-impact role for a commercially minded deal jockey who thrives in complex, enterprise-scale transactions, and values practical, business-oriented lawyering.
What you’ll do in your role.
- Advise on contracts at all stages of the product development lifecycle (ideation through EOL).
- Lead drafting, review, and negotiation of complex commercial agreements, including:
- B2B product development and resale transactions: trial agreements, MSAs, order forms/SOWs, amendments, renewals, remediation agreements, and termination/wind-down/transition assistance provisions for third-party products T-Mobile resells.
- Financial products contracts, e.g., banking, credit card, and program partnerships.
- Technology and services transactions that enable these portfolios: SaaS/hosted services, integrations/APIs, security tooling, professional and managed services, and strategic vendor arrangements supporting product development and commercialization.
- Structure and negotiate risk allocation frameworks, including liability regimes (limitations of liability, indemnities, special damages, insurance requirements).
- Ensure agreements accurately reflect business objectives while minimizing legal, operational, financial, reputational, and security risk, with particular focus on:
- Data and security terms (data rights/use restrictions, breach notification, subcontractor controls, retention, audit evidence needs).
- Performance and operations terms (SLAs, service credits, support responsibilities, implementation milestones, service continuity, and disaster recovery).
- Commercial terms (pricing models, variable/volume-based fees, audit rights, benchmarking, MFN/most-favored provisions, termination rights, and transition assistance).
- Flow-down alignment between upstream vendor obligations (warranties/SLAs/credits/IP/data/security) and downstream customer commitments in sales channels for resale offerings.
- Governance dependencies common in financial products (TPRM, InfoSec, Privacy, Compliance, Accounting/Controls) and disciplined early alignment to prevent late-stage escalations.
- Serve as a trusted legal advisor to business, product, finance, and procurement stakeholders—providing practical, solution-oriented counsel aligned with enterprise strategy and operational objectives.
- Identify and assess legal, regulatory, financial, and operational risks; articulate mitigation strategies; and exercise independent judgment within established corporate risk frameworks.
- Drive operational excellence by developing and refining templates, playbooks, clause positions, and escalation guardrails; leveraging technology-enabled solutions (including AI where appropriate) and process optimization to improve contracting efficiency, scalability, and risk consistency.
- Manage outside counsel strategically—right-sizing use to risk and complexity and actively controlling scope, budget, and outcomes.
The experience you’ll bring.
- A U.S. law degree, with admission to at least one state bar in good standing.
- 7+ years of relevant experience, including substantial experience in-house and/or at a law firm drafting and negotiating complex commercial agreements.
- Demonstrated ability to critically manage a large portfolio of work and manage to KPIs.
- Keen pragmatic business sense
