Associate General Counsel, Corporate & Securities

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule, etc. Only include sections that have real specific content. From posting: - About Rippling (company description) – not a section heading? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They say do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. They didn't say we cannot have "About Rippling". But they gave examples of headings; we can include "About the company"? Not listed. Probably we should stick to those headings. The posting includes "About The Role" and "What You Will Do" (responsibilities) and "What You Will Need" (requirements). Also "Additional Information" includes salary range, benefits mention, schedule (in-office at least three days a week). Also "Additional Information" includes equal opportunity etc which we should remove as boilerplate. Also "Rippling highly values having employees working in-office..." schedule info. Thus sections: - About the role: we can use the paragraph under "About The Role". That's a description. - Responsibilities: from "What You Will Do" bullet list (actually sentences). We'll convert each sentence into

. - Requirements: from "What You Will Need" bullet list. - Benefits: The posting mentions "competitive salary + benefits + equity". Not specific benefits listed. No detail. So we should not create Benefits section unless specific content. There's no list of benefits. So skip. - Pay: The posting includes salary range: "The pay range for this role is: 295,000 - 365,000 USD per year(US)". Also mention competitive salary + benefits + equity. So we can include Pay section with that range. - Schedule: The posting mentions "Rippling highly values having employees working in-office to foster a collaborative work environment and company culture. Rippling considers working in the office, at least three days a week under current policy, to be an essential function of the employee's role." That's schedule info (in-office at least three days a week). So we can include Schedule section. We should not include About Rippling as a section unless we treat as "About the company"? Not in list; maybe we can omit. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but better to stick to those. We'll include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Pay, Schedule. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the details from About The Role paragraph, responsibilities list, requirements list, pay range, schedule detail. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation request, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

This role will also support corporate development and strategic transaction matters, including acquisitions, investments, financings, and tender offers, in addition to debt transactions and compliance, equity and capitalization matters, subsidiary governance, and other complex corporate initiatives as the company continues to scale. Experience with public-company reporting and governance processes is strongly preferred; experience supporting public-company readiness or a public-company transition is a major plus, but not required.

• Draft, maintain, and improve corporate governance documents and processes, including board and committee charters, governance policies, D&O questionnaires, related-party transaction processes, insider trading policies, equity policies, corporate approvals, and governance playbooks.
• Support securities, equity, financing, and capitalization matters, including outstanding securities, cap table processes, equity compensation plans, secondary transactions, private financings, tender offers, investor disclosure materials, and Rippling’s global EOR equity program.
• Oversee subsidiary governance and entity management globally, including corporate filings, international reporting requirements, inter-company transactions, and corporate record-keeping.
• Review and advise on investor presentations, offering materials, financing materials, public announcements, internal communications, and other materials involving securities, governance, corporate, or transactional matters.
• Partner with corporate development on acquisitions, investments, financings, tender offers, and other strategic transactions, including due diligence, transaction documentation, outside counsel management, and post-transaction governance or integration matters.

Requirements

• 10+ years of relevant corporate and securities legal experience, including experience in regulated fintech, financial services, or another highly regulated industry; prior in-house experience is strongly preferred.
• J.D. or equivalent law degree, and admission to practice law in at least one U.S. jurisdiction.

• Entrepreneurial, self-starting, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, highly dynamic, global environment.
• Sense of humor and desire to be part of a dynamic company strongly preferred.

Pay

The pay range for this role is: 295,000 - 365,000 USD per year (US).

Schedule

Rippling highly values having employees working in-office to foster a collaborative work environment and company culture. Rippling considers working in the office, at least three days a week under current policy, to be an essential function of the employee's role.

We must ensure no extra sections like Benefits, Qualifications, Skills. Also ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like equal opportunity, accommodation request, etc. We removed those. Check that we preserved all substantive info: About the role paragraph included all details. Responsibilities list captured each bullet. Requirements list captured each bullet. Pay included range. Schedule included in-office expectation. We didn't include "Additional Information" about competitive salary + benefits + equity; we captured pay range but not benefits/equity. The posting says "This role will receive a competitive salary + benefits + equity." That's substantive but we didn't include benefits/equity specifics. However we cannot create Benefits section without detail. But we could mention in Pay section that it includes benefits and equity? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could add a sentence in Pay section: "The role offers a competitive salary, benefits, and equity." That's not inventing; it's from posting. So we can add that. Let's update Pay paragraph: "The pay range for this role is: 295,000 - 365,000 USD per year (US). The role offers a competitive salary, benefits, and equity." Now schedule: we have that. Check for any other substantive info: "Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.4B..." That's company description; not required as a section. Could we include under About the role? Not needed. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; but we can omit company description if not part of a section? It's substantive but not requested to be included as a heading. However we could include it as a paragraph under About the role? The About the role section currently is just the role description; we could prepend company description? But that might be mixing. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." It doesn't forbid adding extra paragraphs not under headings. But they want sections only when posting has real specific content for it. The company description is not under a heading; we could include it as a

before the first heading? The instruction: "Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences." It didn't say we must wrap everything in sections. Could include a brief intro paragraph about the company. However they gave examples of section headings; they didn't forbid other content. Safer to include it as a

before the first heading, as it's substantive and not boilerplate. But is it boilerplate? It's about Rippling; it's specific. Let's include a short paragraph: "

Rippling gives businesses one place to run HR, IT, and Finance. It brings together all of the workforce systems that are normally scattered across a company, like payroll, expenses, benefits, and computers. For the first time ever, you can manage and automate every part of the employee lifecycle in a single system. Take onboarding, for example.

" That's from the "About Rippling" section. It's substantive. We must ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "We prioritize candidate safety. Please
