Senior Commercial Contracts Manager

Bitdeer Technologies Group • San Jose, CA

8d • Onsite

About The Position

Bitdeer is seeking a Senior Commercial Contracts Manager to join its Legal & Compliance team in San Jose, California. The role focuses on commercial contract operations—including intake, execution discipline, recordkeeping, and obligation tracking—supporting North American construction, procurement, and site development. It is an operational and process-discipline position, not an attorney position.

The manager will establish and own core contract processes and a central searchable agreement repository, administer signature workflows, monitor contractual dates and obligations, and conduct first-pass review and negotiation of standard agreements using Bitdeer’s playbook and approved fallback positions. The role also includes evaluating and helping implement a contract lifecycle management platform and reporting on contract volume, cycle time, and workload, as well as other contract operations support for Legal & Compliance.

Requirements

• At least 8 years of experience in contracts management, contract administration, or legal operations.
• Demonstrated experience building or substantially improving a contract intake, tracking, or repository process from a low-maturity starting point.
• Working fluency with a contract lifecycle management or e-signature platform, including comfort evaluating and selecting tools.
• Strong process discipline and organizational rigor, with judgment to follow a playbook and escalation framework rather than independently deciding legal positions.
• Excellent communication skills, a collaborative mindset, and high self-motivation.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in construction or EPC, energy, industrial procurement, or hardware and technology environments with high-volume deal flow.
• Prior experience at a public company, including its recordkeeping and disclosure rigor.
• Experience supporting multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction operations across the United States and Canada.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the single point of intake for North American commercial contracts, including vendor and supplier agreements, purchase orders, NDAs, membership-program documents, and routine amendments, and route them to the appropriate business and legal owners.
• Build and maintain a central, searchable repository of executed agreements, recording contract type, counterparty, effective and expiry dates, value, signatory, and status.
• Administer signature and execution workflows; confirm authorized signatories and complete, correctly executed signature pages before work begins or payment is released; promptly escalate exceptions.
• Maintain a calendar of renewal and auto-renewal windows, termination-notice deadlines, insurance certificate expirations, and milestone and performance dates, and alert responsible deal owners with sufficient lead time.
• Conduct first-pass review and negotiation of standard agreement types using Bitdeer’s negotiation playbook and pre-approved fallback positions; escalate requested deviations to the assigned attorney.
• Evaluate and help implement a contract lifecycle management platform.
• Maintain reporting on contract volume by type and business unit, cycle time, and workload.
• Support the Legal & Compliance team on other contract operations matters as assigned.
