Senior Contracts Manager
About the role
💼 What you will do
• Join Supabase as a Senior Contracts Manager, working fully remotely from anywhere, including the UK. • Take ownership of vendor contracting and act as the go-to contracts partner for everything the company buys. • Negotiate directly with vendors while building the playbooks and workflows that let the business self-serve on low-risk deals. • Work AI-first in Legal, using Claude and Ironclad every day to move faster and with greater accuracy. • Shape how procurement and vendor contracting scale as Supabase grows, in a hands-on role with high autonomy.
📋 Job Requirements
• Bring 6 to 8+ years of experience negotiating procurement, vendor or technology transactions, ideally buy-side at a US SaaS or technology company. • Know SaaS, cloud and software licensing terms in depth. • Show a track record of negotiating directly with vendors and their counsel, independently and at pace. • Use strong working knowledge of privacy, data protection and security terms, including DPA negotiation and international data transfers. • Design contracting processes that are consistent, transparent and easy for the business to follow. • Explain legal and commercial risk plainly, with the judgement to know when to hold a position, approve a risk or escalate. • Use AI tools, Claude in particular, with sound judgement about verifying outputs and protecting confidential information.
🌟 Nice-to-have
• Hold a degree in a relevant field such as law, economics or political science, though experience is valued over the specific degree. • Bring sell-side experience negotiating customer, partner or reseller agreements for a SaaS or technology company. • Use Ironclad or a similar CLM tool such as Juro or Docusign CLM, or build AI-assisted legal workflows, ideally with some exposure to AI governance. • Work across jurisdictions or with distributed, international teams. • Bring experience at a fast-growing, developer-focused, cloud, security or open source company.
🎯 Responsibilities
• Review, draft and negotiate a high volume of vendor agreements, including MSAs, order forms, SOWs, SaaS and cloud terms, DPAs and NDAs. • Act as the single point of contact for vendor contracting matters from FinOps, IT, Security and business owners, from intake through signature, renewals, amendments, disputes and offboarding. • Apply and build out the playbook and risk framework, escalating to the Assistant General Counsel, Commercial when deals fall outside approved positions. • Negotiate data, privacy and security terms within the Security team's playbook, and review AI vendor terms such as training on company data and output ownership. • Build and maintain the vendor playbook in Claude so low-risk deals move without bottlenecks. • Design and improve intake, triage and approval workflows with FinOps. • Own the vendor and procurement workflow in Ironclad, tracking renewals and notice windows and flagging spend concentration risks. • Create training and self-serve resources for business partners, and support the broader Commercial Legal team as capacity allows.
