Liquid AI is an efficiency-first foundation model company. We build highly capable AI models designed to operate across the full range of environments—from cloud infrastructure to phones, vehicles, and other edge devices.
Liquid AI is seeking an experienced Associate General Counsel to lead our product counseling and AI regulatory work.
Reporting to the Chief Legal Officer, this person will work closely with our product, research, and engineering teams as they develop and deploy new AI models and products. The role requires someone who can understand novel and unsettled legal issues, make practical decisions, and translate those decisions into things the company can actually do.
The job is not simply to monitor regulatory developments or write policies. It is to determine what they mean for Liquid’s products and help the company act.
Own legal support for the development, release, and deployment of Liquid’s models and products.
Advise product, research, and engineering teams on AI regulation, privacy, data use, intellectual property, model safety, security, and product claims.
Lead Liquid’s response to the EU AI Act and other emerging AI laws, including the practical controls, documentation, and product decisions needed for compliance.
Advise on training and evaluation data, synthetic data, model outputs, open-source and open-weight releases, fine-tuning, and customer deployments.
Support the commercial team on product and regulatory issues arising in strategic customer and partnership agreements.
At least 8 years of relevant legal experience, including meaningful in-house experience advising technology product teams.
Strong background in AI regulation, privacy, data governance, intellectual property, or related technology issues.
Ability to understand how Liquid’s products work and give clear, practical, risk-based advice.
Ability to operate independently, identify issues before they become problems, and drive work through completion.
Comfort making decisions in areas where the law is new, unsettled, or simply does not provide a clean answer.
Clear, concise writing.
Thinks from first principles and is genuinely interested in technology.
Wants to work directly with the people building products—not review them from a distance.
Exercises judgment rather than reflexively escalating, documenting, or avoiding risk.
Is comfortable taking ownership, being decisive, and occasionally being wrong.
High integrity, optimistic, and low ego.
Healthy sense of humor.
