Job Description
At Elroy Air, we build autonomous vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) cargo aircraft systems to change the way the world moves goods. Transporting cargo by air is faster and more efficient than by land or sea, but before recent technological and regulatory developments, it was prohibitively expensive. Today, we’re able to expand middle-mile logistics possibilities across multiple sectors. The commercial express shipping industry spends $140B annually on the middle-mile and needs faster, better solutions - while the armed forces are increasingly prioritizing unmanned aerial cargo delivery systems.

These partners and customers are already responding enthusiastically to the technologies we are pioneering. As we develop and deploy these systems, we are looking for people like you: motivated collaborators, excited by our mission and by the rare opportunity to improve how logistics works around the world. You will play an important role in establishing Elroy Air as the industry standard in this massive market.

Diverse perspectives at all levels are critical to innovation and employee development. We encourage our team to bring their whole selves to Elroy. This includes but is not limited to gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender expression, religion, age, ability, parenthood status, veteran status, educational background, citizenship status, or any combination of these characteristics.

As our first in-house counsel you will play a vital role in leading the corporate, commercial, and transactional legal needs of Elroy Air. You will report to our CFO and will be responsible for our legal strategy, infrastructure, documentation, negotiations, contracts, approach to risk and risk management, and legal representation.

This is an onsite, full-time, salaried, exempt role based in South San Francisco with some travel to our flight test facility in Byron, CA and other locations as needed.

What you’ll own:

  • Efficiently and effectively lead and oversee outside counsel on all relevant workstreams
  • Assure the maintenance of records of all new and existing legal documents and proceedings
  • Ensure all aspects of Elroy Air’s legal representation are of the highest quality
  • Identify, assess and mitigate potential litigation and regulatory risks related to aerospace and defense customers, vendors and other related parties
  • Collaborate and build strong relationships across the organization to support compliance management and corporate governance in connection with anti-corruption / bribery as well anti-money laundering regulatory concerns
  • Own and implement Elroy Air’s Intellectual Property strategy
  • Build and maintain the legal infrastructure and best practices needed to support Elroy Air’s business
  • Oversee all corporate, commercial, and transactional legal needs of Elroy Air
  • Develop our legal strategy to protect against legal risks and liabilities while providing leadership with practical and actionable advice

Our ideal candidate:

  • 10+ years of legal experience, preferably both in-house and with a law firm
  • Ability to proactively identify issues and implement effective solutions quickly
  • Strong understanding of industry-relevant laws and regulations
  • Contract experience with international commercial partners/customers
  • Active membership and good standing with the California bar
  • Relentless persistence, coupled with a bias toward action
  • Strong communication, writing, and organizational skills
  • Demonstrated ability to prioritize various risks and focus on what is necessary
  • A considered, flexible approach to acceptable risk in an entrepreneurial environment

Bonus points for:

  • Strong working knowledge of US Government contracting and procurement regulations and export control regulation
  • Experience at an aviation, aerospace or technology company within another highly-regulated industry
  • Experience in government relations including congressional interactions and working with defense customers
  • FAA / EASA or equivalent aviation certification experience

What’s in it for you:

  • You'll help define a new category of aerospace / logistics / robotics, and you'll work on novel and never-before-built systems
  • Comprehensive insurance options for medical/dental/vision/long term disability/life + optional plans for commuter accounts, pet insurance, legal help, and more!
  • As an early addition to a quickly growing team, you'll help shape and define company culture and values
  • 3 months fully paid parental leave
  • Highly flexible vacation policy- that we actually want you to use!
  • Flexible work arrangements (we understand you have a personal life)
  • Competitive pay + equity package
  • Employee Assistance Program with 24/7 support
  • A kind, diverse, and highly skilled team
  • Retirement planning: 401(k) with company contribution
  • Developing Employee Resource Groups (Affinity Groups) for underrepresented groups
Elroy Air's compensation package includes market competitive salary, equity for all full time roles, and great benefits. If you are located in the San Francisco Bay Area, our expected cash compensation for this role is $240,000 - $300,000. We are hiring for multiple levels and backgrounds so final offers may vary from the amounts listed based on experience, expertise, and other factors.

We encourage you to apply even if you aren't an exact match for our open role as many of our team members come from nontraditional backgrounds.

All employees will be screened through E-Verify.
