About PointFive

PointFive is the AI Efficiency OS. From the cloud to the coding agent, we're the only platform that manages AI spend everywhere it happens.

Engineering and FinOps teams use PointFive to make their organizations more efficient and their cloud and AI more effective. We don't just show what you spend. We show what you're wasting, and we fix it autonomously. NuBank saw ROI in 10 days. Customers average 1,200%+ ROI and a 4.9 rating on G2.

Founded by the team behind IntSights (acquired by Rapid7), PointFive recently closed a $60M Series B led by Accel, with participation from Entrée Capital and Salesforce Ventures.

About the Role

We're hiring PointFive's first in-house Director of Legal to build the legal function from the ground up — covering commercial contracts and deal support, corporate housekeeping, compliance, and everything in between, while putting in place the infrastructure that makes the business faster as it grows. You'll report to the VP of Operations and partner closely with Sales, RevOps, Finance, HR, and leadership.

What You'll Do

  • Serve as in-house counsel for all commercial activity: draft, review, and negotiate MSAs, SaaS agreements, NDAs, SOWs, and amendments.

  • Drive commercial contracting end-to-end, guiding GTM teams through negotiations and building their judgment on tradeoffs and risk over time.

  • Own the legal side of contract lifecycle management — intake, routing, templates, repository, and reporting — with RevOps and Sales Ops.

  • Support partnership agreements with cloud providers, channel partners, and technology alliances, including cloud marketplace contracting (AWS, Azure, GCP).

  • Own the company's corporate legal foundation — entity maintenance, governance coordination, IP ownership, trademarks, and licensing.

  • Handle employment matters (offer letters, contractor agreements, separations, policy updates) across Israel, US, UK, and other geographies.

  • Build a consistent framework for evaluating and communicating legal and business risk to leadership, deploying outside counsel efficiently.

  • Partner with Security and Engineering on data privacy, SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR compliance, and RFP / security-questionnaire response.

What We're Looking For

Must-have

  • 5–7 years of legal experience in a hi-tech company or hi-tech-sector law firm.

  • Technicalfluency — you don't need to write code, but you understand how software products are built, deployed, and sold.

  • JD from an accredited law school and bar admission (New York preferred).

  • Deep fluency in commercial contracts: SaaS agreements, MSAs, NDAs, data processing agreements, and vendor terms.

  • Proven ability to work autonomously — you've owned a function, not just supported one.

  • Track record partnering closely with Sales and RevOps, understanding the commercial process, not just the contracts.

  • Experience managing outside counsel — knowing when to deploy them and how to extract value efficiently.

  • Experience with compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR) and the operational work that keeps them current.

  • Strong instincts on risk, and a clear, direct communication style.

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, data security, or FinOps industry context.

  • Prior experience building legal processes and tooling from an early-stage baseline.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary Range: $190,000 – $240,000

  • Health, dental, vision (yes, all three!), equity in something early-stage and exciting, generous PTO, 401K, meal & commuter benefits, and a team that will actually challenge you.

Why PointFive

  • Founders with a track record — Built and sold IntSights to Rapid7. Backed by top-tier investors with deep conviction in this category.

  • Category-defining product — DeepWaste detection and agentic remediation with clear, measurable ROI for both engineering and finance teams.

  • Early-stage leverage — Your work directly shapes the product, the culture, and the go-to-market playbook.
