About iCOUNTER

iCOUNTER is redefining how enterprises defend against cyber threats originating across their extended business ecosystems.

Our AI-native Counter Threat Operating System (CTOS™) combines threat intelligence, risk determination, and operational response to help organizations identify and act on threats involving third parties, subsidiaries, portfolio companies, and interconnected business relationships.

We believe enterprises need to move beyond traditional risk assessments and static security scores toward intelligence-led, proactive defense.

We’re building a new category of cybersecurity, and we’re looking for exceptional talent to help us bring it to market.

Job Overview

We are seeking a highly motivated, operationally minded Associate General Counsel (AGC) to join our growing legal team and report directly to the Chief Legal Officer (CLO).

The AGC will partner closely with the CLO to help build, scale, and execute the legal function. The AGC will work directly with teams across the business to help navigate complex commercial, technology, data protection, privacy, cybersecurity, and corporate matters.

The ideal candidate brings strong legal judgment, excellent communication skills, and a practical, solutions-oriented approach to risk. You are comfortable operating with autonomy, moving quickly in a high-growth environment, and translating complex legal issues into clear recommendations that enable the business to make informed decisions.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex legal concepts clearly to non-legal audiences

  • A practical, solutions-oriented approach to legal risk

  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to prioritize multiple high-impact matters in a fast-paced environment
