Director of Product Counsel

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Overview? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content: Overview (Working at Atlassian) - that's about company, maybe "About Atlassian". Could be "About the role"? Not exactly. There's "Overview" describing remote work etc. Could be "About the role"? Actually "Overview" is about working at Atlassian, not role specifics. Could be "About Atlassian". But headings allowed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can also use other headings? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., implying those are examples but we can use those headings. Probably we should stick to those. We have content for Responsibilities (Your future team, What You'll Do). We have content for Requirements/Qualifications (Your background). We have content for Benefits (Benefits & Perks). We have content for Pay (Compensation and Pay Ranges). We have no explicit Schedule info. So we omit Schedule. We also have Overview about Atlassian working flexibility. Could map to "About the role"? Not exactly but maybe we can use "About the role" to include overview of role and working environment. Or we could use "About Atlassian" but not allowed? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those. Safer to use those headings only. We can put overview under "About the role". That seems okay. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At end there is EEO statement etc. Must remove. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract sections: About the role (overview): - Working at Atlassian: Atlassians can choose where they work – office, home, hybrid. Control over supporting family, personal goals, priorities. Can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Responsibilities: - Your future team: building future of teamwork, Product Counsel team strategic partners alongside R&D/product leaders. As AI reshapes software, redefining how Legal enables rapid, responsible product innovation. Looking for creative, adaptable Director of Product Counsel who thrives on novel questions, strong generalist toolkit, energized by shaping team's operating model and playbook for AI era. - What You'll Do: * Navigate the Frontier: Counsel product and engineering teams on emerging, first-impression legal and regulatory issues, especially across AI/ML technologies, data governance, intellectual property, and platform architectures. * Flex Across Domains: Apply versatile generalist approach to pivot across products, technical stacks, subject areas as business priorities evolve. * Define the AI Era Playbook: Partner with cross-functional teams to design repeatable frameworks, launch checklists, scalable legal guardrails enabling R&D to ship AI features with velocity and confidence. * Act as the Legal Hub: Serve as primary legal partner and "front door" for product initiatives, collaborating closely with Legal SMEs (Privacy, IP, Commercial, Regulatory) to deliver cohesive, business-first guidance. * Shape Team Culture & Practice: Help mature growing Product Counsel function by bringing fresh ideas, experimenting with new ways of working, leveraging modern tech and async tools to scale impact. Requirements/Qualifications (Your background): - 8+ years of legal experience counseling software products, ideally B2B Enterprise SaaS, supporting fast-moving Product and Engineering teams. - Required Juris Doctor, license to practice law in jurisdiction. - Background in law firm and in-house legal team. - Strong generalist product counseling skillset, ability to quickly understand unfamiliar product surfaces, technical architectures, business models. - Comfort navigating ambiguity and novel issues, evaluating emerging AI, data, IP, regulatory, platform questions where no clear playbook. - Demonstrated agility to dive into complex technical architectures, synthesize inputs from multiple legal disciplines, adapt quickly to unfamiliar product surfaces. - Simplifier skillset (no legalese for Product teams), strong writing skills for async environment, comfort using technology to get work done (we love our own tools!), energized by fast-paced agile working environment. - Enthusiasm for building processes and artifacts from scratch, natural fluency working asynchronously and collaborating through modern team tooling. - Bonus for candidates familiar with Atlassian tools. Skills? Could be covered in above but we could create Skills section summarizing skillset: generalist product counseling, AI/ML, data governance, IP, platform architectures, technical architecture synthesis, writing, async collaboration, modern tooling, simplifier, etc. But we already have those in Requirements. Might be redundant. Better to keep Requirements/Qualifications as one section. The instruction allows multiple sections; we can have Requirements and Qualifications separate if content distinct. We have qualifications (education, experience) and requirements (skillset). Could split: Requirements: 8+ years experience, JD, license, law firm+in-house background. Qualifications: generalist skillset, comfort with ambiguity, agility, simplifier, writing, tech comfort, enthusiasm for building processes, async fluency, bonus Atlassian tools. But we can also combine. To follow instruction, we can have both Requirements and Qualifications headings if we have content. Let's split: Requirements: - 8+ years of legal experience counseling software products, ideally B2B Enterprise SaaS, supporting fast-moving Product and Engineering teams. - Required Juris Doctor, with a license to practice law in your jurisdiction. - Background in a law firm and in-house legal team. Qualifications: - Strong generalist product counseling skillset, ability to quickly understand unfamiliar product surfaces, technical architectures, and business models. - Comfort navigating ambiguity and novel issues, including evaluating emerging AI, data, IP, regulatory, and platform questions where there may not be a clear playbook. - Demonstrated agility to dive into complex technical architectures, synthesize inputs from multiple legal disciplines, and adapt quickly to unfamiliar product surfaces. - You have a simplifier skillset (no legalese for our Product teams), strong writing skills to excel in our async environment, comfort using technology to get your work done (we love our own tools!), and you're energized by a fast-paced and agile working environment. - Enthusiasm for building processes and artifacts from scratch, with natural fluency working asynchronously and collaborating through modern team tooling. - Bonus for candidates who are familiar with Atlassian tools.

We follow consistent hiring practices and account for each candidate's skills, knowledge, and experience when setting base pay within the range. Please visit go.atlassian.com/payzones for more information on which locations are included in each of our geographic pay zones. However, please confirm the zone for your specific location with your recruiter. This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity. - Pay Ranges: Role In The United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are: * Zone A: $229,500 - $299,625 * Zone B: $206,550 - $269,663 * Zone C: $190,485 - $248,689 We should format Pay ranges as list. We must not include boilerplate like EEO statement etc. At end there is EEO etc. Remove. Also remove duplicated lines: there is "Overview Working at Atlassian" and later "About Atlassian" etc. We used overview. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:
