About The Job

As Corporate Counsel at Google, you work on the most exciting legal issues as disruptive technological innovations require creative and proactive legal guidance.

You are collaborative -- ready to partner in initiatives that influence all aspects of the business and work with Googlers from all over the company. As an integrated part of the team, you proactively assess legal risks and advise on products that will not only move information into the 21st century, but move information law forward as well.

As an Associate Counsel, you’ll join an APAC-based team addressing high and emerging risks pertaining to all aspects of our business in APAC including our people, our products, our users, legislators and society, and our ecosystem. You will work closely with Google and other Alphabet companies’ Legal, Data Security and Privacy, Public Policy, Office of Compliance and Integrity, Communications, Marketing, Product, and Engineering teams to identify, prevent, solve, and adapt to Alphabet’s risks.

Whether you're a patent attorney, an intellectual property expert or an engineer headed to law school, Google Legal lets you address unanswered legal quandaries and create new precedents.

We provide those answers by working at the crossroads of the law and new technology, helping Google build innovative and important products for users around the world.
