What Makes Us Different

Duetto is the hospitality industry's leading revenue management platform, founded in 2012 by former Wynn Resorts executives. We build the world's first Revenue & Profit Operating System — a suite of tools that go beyond room pricing to give hotels, resorts, and casinos a complete picture of their revenue and profitability. Trusted by clients ranging from independent boutique hotels to global chains, we've been named the #1 Revenue Management Software by HotelTechAwards four years running and the #1 Best Place to Work in Hotel Tech in 2025. Backed by GrowthCurve Capital since 2024, we're accelerating our investment in AI.

What You'll Be Doing

• Own the legal AI stack — select, implement, and champion AI-powered tooling for contract review, CLM, policy drafting, and regulatory monitoring, and set the standard for how a modern, lean legal function operates.
• Partner with Product and Engineering on our ML pricing models, developing and maintaining the legal and ethical framework governing data usage, algorithmic decision-making, and pricing transparency, and becoming an expert on hospitality-related compliance trends to influence our product roadmap.
• Drive high-velocity global growth by architecting scalable commercial contracting processes and playbooks that empower Sales to close deals efficiently while simplifying processes, reducing exceptions, and maintaining necessary protections.
• Build exit-readiness into everything we do — operate with a PE mindset, hold our work to diligence-ready standards, and serve as a core member of the corporate functions leadership group, ensuring Legal is deeply integrated with Corp Dev, FP&A, Accounting, and IT to drive cross-functional initiatives, including M&A.
• Establish and refine corporate governance frameworks by serving as Secretary to the Board of Directors, acting as a proactive steward of corporate hygiene, preparing Board-facing materials, and advising on external governance and compliance trends.
• Oversee the legal budget and external legal relationships at the company and PE-ownership level, allocating resources across internal/external, specialist/generalist, and high/low cost with a bias toward insourcing through technology.
• Manage employment law across a global workforce, partnering with People Operations on complex employment matters, equity agreements, compensation plan structures, and international workforce compliance across all jurisdictions in which the company operates.
• Evolve the enterprise risk management function by collaborating with Finance on insurance, tax exposure, and operational risk, with a focus on what materially affects exit valuation.
• Perform other related duties as needed to support team and company priorities.

What We're Looking For

• J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school; active bar membership in good standing.
• 15+ years of related professional legal experience, with substantial experience in high-growth technology companies.
• Strong executive presence with proficiency in distilling complex legal concepts into actionable takeaways for non-legal business leaders.
• Deep SaaS commercial expertise: subscription agreements, data processing addenda, API and partner agreements, and enterprise deal structuring.
• Fluency in AI/ML product legal issues: data licensing, algorithmic accountability, privacy (GDPR, CCPA, and emerging US frameworks), and automated decision-making regulations.
• Corporate governance experience, including Board Secretary or equivalent.
• Genuine curiosity about legal technology and AI, with a first-hand point of view about how these tools are changing in-house legal work.

Strong Candidates May Also Have

• M&A experience in a PE context.
• Employment law competency across multiple jurisdictions.
• Experience with international corporate structures and the related impact on growth velocity and financials (e.g., regulatory/compliance overhead, tax exposure, and workforce management).
