About the Opportunity

We’re looking for a Legal Counsel with 1-3 years of experience to join our growing legal team. In this role, you’ll support and advise across a wide range of legal and business matters, including commercial contracts, regulatory compliance, and risk management.

From day one, you’ll be embedded in the business—working directly with executives, product leaders, and external partners. You’ll see the immediate impact of your work, gain a seat at the table in strategic conversations, and own projects end-to-end.

If you’re resourceful, business-minded, and eager to accelerate your career in a fast-scaling, high-growth environment, we’d love to hear from you.

This is a fully remote full-time role with options to work onsite (we have offices in Palo Alto, Toronto, and New York).

What You’ll Do
  • Negotiate, draft, and review a wide variety of commercial agreements, including partnership, technology, marketing, and vendor contracts, ensuring they align with the Company’s goals and risk tolerance.

  • Rapidly identify and analyze legal and business risks in contracts and propose creative, practical solutions to get deals done.

  • Be as a trusted advisor to internal business clients, translating complex legal concepts into clear, actionable advice for non-lawyers.

  • Work cross-functionally with product, marketing, and operations to anticipate legal issues in new initiatives and launches.

  • Develop and implement scalable legal processes, playbooks, and templates that will shape how Jerry manages contracts as we grow.

  • Manage a high volume of contracts and legal requests in a fast-paced environment with tight deadlines.

Who You Are
  • JD or LLM from an accredited law school; strong academic record.

  • Admitted to the bar of at least one U.S. state.

  • 1–3 years of experience in commercial law, ideally with exposure to financial services, fintech or insurance (either law firm or in-house).

  • Experience negotiating, drafting, and reviewing commercial agreements, preferably vendor and partnership contracts.

  • Business-oriented problem solver with a practical, hands-on approach.

  • Exceptional attention to detail and organizational skills.

  • Thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment with a strong sense of ownership.

While we appreciate your interest and application, only applicants under consideration will be contacted.

What We Do

At Jerry, we’re building a car ownership super app that puts comparison shopping, financing, driving, maintenance and parking solutions at your fingertips and savings in your wallet.

We believe drivers deserve better. Why can’t shopping for insurance, financing and maintaining your vehicle be a click, a swipe or a text away? It should be. We’re making that happen.

Our custom artificial intelligence, machine learning and bots allow us to provide the best, personalized service for all car ownership needs. The Jerry team’s focus on customer experience results in exceptional transaction speed. With our first product, Jerry redesigned and disrupted the century-old car insurance process, turning stacks of pages and hours of calls into a handful of clicks. That’s why we’re the only car insurance marketplace that gives you the best, customized quotes from more than 55 name-brand insurance carriers in 45 seconds. Jerry helps drivers shop for the best price, compare against current coverage, purchase without a single phone call (unless you want one!) and maintain the best policy for your needs.

Led by serial entrepreneurs, tech elite alumni, and fintech, insurtech and auto experts, Jerry attracts people driven to create a customer experience that makes people happy by saving them money and time. And it’s working. Jerry is the #1 rated and most downloaded app in the category.

With headquarters in the heart of Silicon Valley, offices in Toronto and Buffalo, and remote team members in four countries, Jerry has removed physical location from recruiting restraints to capture top talent. Join us.
