The Team & Opportunity

Shopify’s Employment Legal Team focuses on the issues that affect Shopify as a general, remote-first employer. Our core goal is to ensure that Shopify remains a trusted employer that can strike a balance between compliance with legal requirements and maintaining our amazing, mission-driven work environment.

With thousands of employees spread across the globe, there is never a dull moment on this team. Shopify marches to the beat of its own drum, and we’re faced with nuanced and exciting issues you couldn’t dream up if you tried. Working with other members of our Legal team and providing support to leadership and our global Talent team, you’ll apply your knowledge and experience to new scenarios while skillfully providing business-oriented advice in an efficient, succinct, and easy-to-understand way. No legal memos or law school lectures here





We’re looking for experienced employment lawyers with a “put me in, coach” attitude, with experience advising on US employment law, EMEA employment law, or both. You must be able to juggle competing priorities, directly manage high pressure situations, and be equally adept at playing a lead role on some projects and a supporting role on others. You’ll need to be energized by working in a fast-paced environment and tackling complex problems without clear answers. You need to be enough of a generalist to issue spot and triage a broad range of employment risks globally, with the ability to go deep and learn quickly when needed. This role reports to the Director, Associate General Counsel, Employment.
