AI Compute and Infrastructure Counsel (Legal)

Our Mission Reflection’s mission is to build open superintelligence and make it accessible to all . We’re developing open weight models for individuals, agents, enterprises, and even nation states. Our team of AI researchers and company builders come from DeepMind, OpenAI, Google Brain, Meta, Character.AI, Anthropic and beyond. Role Overview As Compute and Infrastructure Counsel, you will be the primary legal partner to our Strategy and Operations teams on complex infrastructure projects. You will own the negotiation and execution of agreements that underwrite Reflection’s AI buildout, including strategic hardware partnerships with chip and server makers, hyperscaler and neocloud capacity reservations, data center leases and colocation agreements, power and utility arrangements, and the construction contracts behind new AI factories. This is a high-impact role for a seasoned commercial lawyer who wants to sit at the intersection of frontier AI and infrastructure. You will operate with significant autonomy, build the playbooks for a function that does not yet exist, and have a direct hand in enabling the physical layer of Reflection’s AI systems. What You’ll Do Lead negotiation of large-scale compute and cloud capacity agreements with hyperscalers, neoclouds, and emerging providers — including capacity reservations, minimum commitments, service-level commitments, portability, and exit rights. Own strategic hardware partnerships with chip, accelerator, server, and networking vendors. Drive end-to-end legal support for data center and AI factory buildouts — colocation and hosting master agreements, ground and build-to-suit leases, engineering and construction contracts, interconnection agreements, power purchases and utility arrangements. Structure and negotiate power arrangements: power purchase agreements, tolling agreements, utility service agreements, behind-the-meter generation, and long-term energy and transmission commitments. Serve as legal lead on strategic infrastructure transactions — joint ventures, site acquisitions, and bespoke financing structures supporting the AI factory roadmap. Build scalable playbooks, templates, and delegation frameworks so our commercial and infrastructure teams can move at speed without sacrificing rigor. Partner with Security, Privacy, and Policy colleagues on cross-cutting issues: tenant isolation, customer data flows, sovereign compute, and engagement with regulators. Manage specialized outside counsel across real estate, energy, hardware, and construction. What We’re Looking For J.D. and active bar membership (or in-house registration) in at least one U.S. jurisdiction. At least 8+ years of relevant legal experience, ideally with a combination of law firm and in-house experience, with a meaningful track record leading complex infrastructure, hardware supply, or cloud/compute transactions. Demonstrated depth in at least two of the following, and working fluency across the rest: Strategic hardware partnerships and supply agreements (semiconductors, accelerators, servers, networking, or comparable). Hyperscaler and cloud capacity agreements, ideally from the enterprise customer side. Power purchase, utility, and energy contracting. Data center leases, colocation and hosting, and large-scale buildout contracting. Comfortable operating independently on fast-moving, first-of-their-kind deals while setting a high bar for quality and speed. Significant experience managing and directing a deal team and outside counsel. Sound commercial judgment — you know when to push, when to paper around an issue, and when to escalate. Clear written and verbal communication; able to translate contractual complexity for non-lawyer stakeholders. Technical fluency and strong business acumen across compute transactions, project finance, and technology and hardware procurement. We are building this function from the ground up, not inheriting one. Nice to Have Prior experience at an AI lab, hyperscaler, semiconductor company, or large-scale data center operator. Exposure to construction, real estate or land use matters. Familiarity with tax and financing structures for capital-intensive infrastructure. Government, regulatory, or national-security background, including export controls. What We Offer: We believe that to build superintelligence that is truly open, you need to start at the foundation. Joining Reflection means building from the ground up as part of a small talent-dense team. You will help define our future as a company, and help define the frontier of open foundational models. We want you to do the most impactful work of your career with the confidence that you and the people you care about most are supported. Top-tier compensation: Salary and equity structured to recognize and retain the best talent globally. Health & wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance. Life & family: Fully paid parental leave for all new parents, including adoptive and surrogate journeys. Financial support for family planning. Benefits & balance: paid time off when you need it, relocation support, and more perks that optimize your time. Opportunities to connect with teammates: lunch and dinner are provided daily. We have regular off-sites and team celebrations.
