• Build and maintain scalable production workflows, deal memo templates, and contract management processes for Hims & Hers' commercial and marketing production operation, including SAG-AFTRA signatory compliance and AI vendor terms.

• Knowledge of SAG-AFTRA guild rules, signatory responsibilities, and low-budget/new media contract frameworks

• Experience drafting and negotiating IP licensing and content clearance agreements

• Exposure to AI-related legal considerations in creative or marketing settings, including generative AI usage policies, ownership of AI-generated content, and drafting AI-related terms in vendor and platform contracts

• Capacity to pivot rapidly in a high-velocity, ever-changing environment with competing demands

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills with a demonstrated ability to deliver practical, commercially grounded guidance to diverse stakeholders

• Track record of weighing legal exposure against business goals

• Hands-on counsel provided in connection with AI technologies and platforms deployed in creative, marketing, or content pipelines (e.g., generative image/video/audio tools, AI-assisted post-production, synthetic media applications)

• Acquaintance with healthcare privacy related laws and related healthcare regulatory frameworks is a bonus
