Sr. Corporate Counsel – Commercial/Product Transactions (Financial/B2B Products) Job at T-Mobile (Bellevue)

Job Description

T-Mobile has an exciting opportunity for a bright, pragmatic, “business first” transactional attorney to join our team and help get stuff done. This role supports a commercial transactional portfolio spanning multiple customer-facing products, including (1) B2B Products (third-party products/services T-Mobile commercializes and resells) and (2) financial products (e.g., T-Mobile Money and related payments/financial services vendor ecosystem). The attorney will independently lead negotiations, provide risk-based counseling to senior business leaders, and partner cross-functionally across Legal, Finance, Product, Procurement, Risk, Cybersecurity, Privacy, Compliance, and Third-Party Risk Management. This role requires strong commercial judgment, the ability to translate legal risk into clear business decision frameworks, and comfort operating in a fast-paced, high-volume enterprise procurement environment. This is a high-impact role for a commercially minded deal jockey who thrives in complex, enterprise-scale transactions, and values practical, business-oriented lawyering.

Job Responsibility

Advise on contracts at all stages of the product development lifecycle (ideation through EOL)
Lead drafting, review, and negotiation of complex commercial agreements, including: B2B product development and resale transactions: trial agreements, MSAs, order forms/SOWs, amendments, renewals, remediation agreements, and termination/wind-down/transition assistance provisions for third-party products T-Mobile resells
Financial products contracts, e.g., banking, credit card, and program partnerships
Technology and services transactions that enable these portfolios: SaaS/hosted services, integrations/APIs, security tooling, professional and managed services, and strategic vendor arrangements supporting product development and commercialization
Structure and negotiate risk allocation frameworks, including liability regimes (limitations of liability, indemnities, special damages, insurance requirements)
Ensure agreements accurately reflect business objectives while minimizing legal, operational, financial, reputational, and security risk, with particular focus on: Data and security terms (data rights/use restrictions, breach notification, subcontractor controls, retention, audit evidence needs)

Commercial terms (pricing models, variable/volume-based fees, audit rights, benchmarking, MFN/most-favored provisions, termination rights, and transition assistance)
Flow-down alignment between upstream vendor obligations (warranties/SLAs/credits/IP/data/security) and downstream customer commitments in sales channels for resale offerings
Governance dependencies common in financial products (TPRM, InfoSec, Privacy, Compliance, Accounting/Controls) and disciplined early alignment to prevent late-stage escalations
Serve as a trusted legal advisor to business, product, finance, and procurement stakeholders—providing practical, solution-oriented counsel aligned with enterprise strategy and operational objectives
Identify and assess legal, regulatory, financial, and operational risks
articulate mitigation strategies
and exercise independent judgment within established corporate risk frameworks
Drive operational excellence by developing and refining templates, playbooks, clause positions, and escalation guardrails
leveraging technology-enabled solutions (including AI where appropriate) and process optimization to improve contracting efficiency, scalability, and risk consistency
Manage outside counsel strategically—right-sizing use to risk and complexity and actively controlling scope, budget, and outcomes
