Job Description

Samba TV tracks streaming and broadcast video across the world with our proprietary data and technology. We are on a mission to fundamentally transform the viewing experience for everyone. Our data enables media companies to connect with audiences for new shows and movies, and enables advertisers to engage viewers and measure reach across all their devices. We have an amazing story with a unique perspective on culture formed by a global footprint of data and AI-driven insights.

We're looking for a sharp, business-oriented attorney with 2–5 years of post-qualification experience to join Samba TV's legal team. This is a high-impact role for a lawyer with strong corporate transactional foundations who wants to work at the intersection of technology, data, and media. You'll be embedded in the business — advising on deals, structuring transactions, and partnering cross-functionally on some of the most interesting challenges in ad tech and measurement.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of corporate and commercial agreements, including equity and debt financings, M&A transactions, and private placements
Support fundraising and corporate structuring activities — investor communications, due diligence, and closing processes
Partner with Finance and Business Development on strategic transactions and joint ventures
Advise on corporate governance, subsidiary management, and regulatory compliance
Handle commercial contracting across technology licensing, data sharing, and vendor agreements
Help build scalable legal processes and documentation templates
Collaborate with Product, Operations, and Data teams to address legal questions around data use, technology, and innovation

WHO YOU ARE

J.D. from a well-regarded law school and active bar admission in at least one U.S. jurisdiction
2–5 years of experience at a top-tier law firm or in-house legal department, focused on corporate law, M&A, capital markets, or PE/VC transactions
Strong command of corporate structures, capitalization, and securities compliance
Proven ability to juggle multiple projects and deliver practical, business-first legal advice under tight deadlines
Excellent drafting, communication, and negotiation skills
Prior exposure to technology, data, or digital media sectors is a strong plus
Collaborative, proactive, and energized by variety — no two days look the same here
