Legal Operations, Contracts Manager, and Privacy Program Manager
About The Position
This is a rare opportunity to join as the first dedicated legal operations hire at Suno. You'll work directly with our General Counsel to build the systems, processes, and programs that will scale with us as we grow across legal, but with a particular emphasis on contracts and privacy programs. Unlike most legal ops roles where you're retrofitting processes onto an established team, you'll be architecting our approach from day one—shaping how legal operates for years to come. This role sits at the intersection of contracts management, legal operations, and privacy compliance. You'll touch everything from vendor agreements to data subject requests, and you'll have real ownership over how we build these functions. Check out our Suno version of the job here!
