About Onebrief

Onebrief is collaboration and AI-powered workflow software designed specifically for military staffs. By transforming this work, Onebrief makes the staff as a whole superhuman - meaning faster, smarter, and more efficient.

We take ownership, seek excellence, and play to win with the seriousness and camaraderie of an Olympic team. Onebrief operates as an all-remote company, though many of our employees work alongside our customers at military commands around the world.

Founded in 2019 by a group of experienced planners, today, Onebrief’s team spans veterans from all forces and global organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software companies. We’ve raised $320m+ from top-tier investors, including Battery Ventures, General Catalyst, Sapphire Ventures, Insight Partners, and Human Capital, and today, Onebrief is valued at $2.15B. With this continued growth, Onebrief is able to make an impact where it matters most.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Corporate Counsel to join our small legal team. The ideal candidate is a high-velocity generalist who can operate autonomously and deliver exceptional, execution-ready work product. You will act as a strategic partner to leadership while owning the high-stakes execution of our most critical legal work streams.

About You

This is not a role for someone who needs a playbook; it’s for someone who wants to write the playbook. You are a self-starter who thrives on variety—navigating everything from complex open-source licensing to scaling our international footprint. You are expected to own your work entirely, from the first redline of a vendor SaaS agreement to the strategic setup of a new international entity, providing pragmatic, business-first advice along the way.

What You'll Do
  • End-to-End Procurement: Own the entire inbound negotiation process (SaaS, consultants, managed services) from start to finish. You should be comfortable closing high-volume, complex deals with minimal oversight in a fast-pace start up environment.

  • Global People Ops: Partner with our people department to manage domestic and international employment matters, including offer letters, local labor law compliance, and contractor agreements.

  • Litigation and Risk Management: Advise on pending and potential litigation, including employment-related claims. Balance legal risk with business reality by providing pragmatic, market-based guidance that enables smart decision-making under tight timelines.

  • Legal Operations: Develop and refine our legal infrastructure, including templates, workflows, and policies for procurement and contracting.

What We Look For
  • J.D. from an accredited U.S. law school and membership in at least one current U.S. state bar membership.

  • 6+ years of legal experience in procurement, technology transactions, and commercial contracting, ideally with a mix of in-house and law firm experience.

  • Experience negotiating inbound technology and services contracts, including SaaS, software licensing, and professional services agreements.

  • Demonstrated ability to thrive in fast-paced startup environments, wearing multiple hats and managing ambiguity.

  • Excellent drafting skills with the ability to craft creative, practical solutions in real time.

  • Outstanding organizational and project management skills with the ability to handle multiple priorities independently.

  • Responsive, service-oriented, and collaborative, with a strong sense of judgment and integrity.

  • Comfortable shifting between strategic thinking and detailed execution

  • Experience with legal workflow or contract management tools (e.g., e-signature, document management, CLM) is a plus.

What We Do

Before Onebrief, military planning and collaboration was slow, inefficient, and resource-intensive. Building slides with no version control as partners collaborated would have staffs spend weeks or months on a single product or document.

With Onebrief, these workflows are now simple and collaboration between large commands is efficient. Staff optimization is the key to building a more resilient, more effective military. Today Onebrief users report at least 2x time savings - and growing.

Onebrief is a first of its kind software for the military. While many others have tried to build a solution for this problem, Onebrief’s “card” structure for reusing data and enabling real time updates is what makes this possible. Core features and attributes that make this platform powerful include:
- Global Collaboration
- Real-Time Updates
- AI Automation
- Interoperability + Integrations
- Deployable across Secret and Top Secret Networks

Mission Driven

Onebrief is composed of professionals from backgrounds of all kinds - spanning veterans across forces and organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software giants.

Onebrief is more than just a software platform; it's a mission-driven company dedicated to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of military planning. By joining the team, you'll contribute to solutions that directly support national security and the work of service members.

Your work directly addresses critical challenges that military planners and operators face daily. Every line of code and every design decision contributes to real-world outcomes.

The software was designed and built by a team of experienced planners - lending a nuanced perspective on the challenges our partners face. Our team embeds alongside users - from
the Pentagon to the Indo-Pacific - to build a platform that meets their unique needs.

Rapid, Strategic Growth

Our users love the platform and growth is scaling, most recently reporting operational usage growth at a 19,600% annualized rate. Stronger utilization is underway and we’re at an exciting period of advancement.

As a rapidly growing organization, you'll directly influence its direction and long-term success. Over the past year we’ve seen exciting growth metrics:

First, our headcount has grown 150% YoY to keep pace with our product advancement and customer growth.

Our funding has skyrocketed, most recently raising our Series C, led by top-tier venture investors who have deep expertise in defense tech.

Why Work With Us

Impactful Transformation

At Onebrief, we believe optimizing the military staff is the most impactful thing - on a per-dollar basis - in defense tech right now. This has the potential to save the department of defense billions of dollars and save users countless hours. It’s a longstanding problem that we’re uniquely positioned to solve.
