About The Position

Ready to drive what is next in privacy and AI at a company transforming the real estate industry? Join MRI Software's global legal team, where you won't just practice law — you'll drive innovation at the intersection of technology, data, and business strategy. This role puts you at the center of a global operation, partnering with stakeholders across the business and around the world. About the Role This isn't your typical privacy counsel role. We're looking for a bold, creative senior attorney who thrives at the cutting edge of law, business, technology, and data. Our attorneys tackle big, complex challenges — from consumer privacy to artificial intelligence governance — and you'll be right in the middle of the action. You won't be starting from scratch — we've built strong privacy and compliance programs, and we need someone who can take them to the next level. As a subject matter expert and go-to business partner, you'll deliver strategic legal guidance on privacy, emerging technologies, risk, compliance, and AI governance that directly shapes how we innovate. If you're someone who combines sharp legal instincts with strong business acumen and wants to leave a real mark on how a global company navigates the AI revolution, this is your opportunity.
