Job description

About Mango

Mango Languages is a mission-driven company helping people around the world connect through language and culture. Our platform supports learners in schools, libraries, businesses, and government organizations. We are a small, high-impact team that values clarity, integrity, and collaboration — and we hold ourselves to a high bar on the details that protect our customers and our company.

About the Role

Mango Languages is hiring a Corporate Counsel to support our legal function across a broad range of business matters. Commercial contracting will be a core part of the role, including drafting, reviewing, and negotiating customer and vendor agreements, working with business teams to structure appropriate terms, and helping identify and address legal, financial, operational, and business risk.

The Corporate Counsel will also work on a range of additional legal matters as they arise, including intellectual property, employment law, regulatory compliance, and data privacy. The role includes conducting legal research, working with outside specialists when appropriate, and helping improve legal processes, templates, and resources, including through thoughtful use of AI to streamline work and enhance legal output. Working under the direction of the Senior Corporate Counsel, this attorney will apply judgment within established playbooks and precedent on day-to-day matters, escalating novel issues or any deviation from playbook to the Senior Corporate Counsel.

This is a growth-track role: you'll start with core contract work, including order forms and quality assurance, as well as RFP support, and take on increasingly complex agreements and legal matters as you build familiarity with Mango's business, standards, and playbooks.


Key Responsibilities
  • Draft, review, revise, and negotiate customer and vendor agreements, including order forms, subscription agreements, technology agreements, statements of work, amendments, nondisclosure agreements, and proposed changes to Mango's standard forms.

  • Identify and communicate legal, financial, operational, and business risks; recommend and negotiate appropriate responses; and escalate significant or unusual issues when appropriate.

  • Work with colleagues across the company to structure contractual terms, confirm business arrangements, review related transactional documents, and facilitate contract execution.

  • Draft and review RFPs and related responses, and provide careful quality assurance across contracts and other legal documents to ensure accuracy, consistency, completeness, and a polished final product.

  • Apply and help refine existing contract templates, standard provisions, and legal playbooks; maintain accurate records, workflows, and organization of contracts and related documents

  • Research and address a broad range of legal matters affecting Mango's business, including corporate governance, employment law, intellectual property, regulatory compliance, risk management and insurance, and data privacy; collaborate with external legal specialists as needed.

  • Maintain a strong understanding of Mango's contracting standards and product offerings, participate in legal team initiatives and special projects, and perform other duties as assigned.


  • What We're Looking For
  • JD and bar admission in good standing in any U.S. state

  • 5+ years of legal experience

  • Strong contract drafting, review, and negotiation skills

  • Sound legal and business judgment, including the ability to identify risk, recommend practical approaches, and recognize when an issue should be escalated

  • Excellent attention to detail and a consistent ability to produce accurate, polished work

  • Intellectual curiosity and comfort working through legal issues that may be outside your day-to-day experience

  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple agreements, projects, and deadlines at once

  • Clear, direct communication skills, including the ability to explain legal issues and recommendations to non-lawyers

  • Proficiency with Google Workspace and Adobe Acrobat Pro; comfort working in a Mac-based environment


  • Interview Process Candidates will complete a skills-based contract review assessment as part of the interview process. The exercise is designed to evaluate practical contract-review skills, judgment, and attention to detail.
