Legal Counsel

Role Overview

We are expanding our legal team and are seeking a talented, creative, and commercial focused Legal Counsel who is passionate about working on sophisticated contracts and closing deals. Eon is on a mission to redefine cloud backup, and we’re building a world-class legal team to support our rapid expansion.
