B) Corporate / Companies & Internal Governance Support corporate governance workstreams relevant to a group with cross border operations (approvals, delegations, board/shareholder documentation where needed) Help keep the legal posture consistent with a structure where IP and commercialization/operations may sit in different entities, ensuring clean responsibility lines and controlled risk exposure Maintain internal policies that connect legal rules to operational reality (e.g., who can sign what, deal desk gates, compliance escalation paths). C) Tech Transactions (Saa S/AI) & Delivery Discipline Draft/review/negotiate MSA/MSuA, Order Forms, SOWs, SLAs and key tech clauses (acceptance/UAT, change control, delivery milestones, support models) Build "negotiation-ready" templates and fallback positions (liability, indemnities, IP/licensing, data use, audit, termination) that preserve trust and do not block execution Ensure professional services terms prevent scope creep and protect timelines, acceptance, and invoicing. D) Security & Trust Enablement Convert security requirements into contract language: security addendum, incident/breach terms, audit rights, encryption/logging/access control commitments, and pen-test boundaries Partner with security/engineering to respond to customer due diligence (vendor questionnaires) in a consistent, evidence-based way. E) AI / Gen AI Governance (Contracts + Policies) Draft practical AI policies and customer-facing addendums (acceptable use, transparency/disclaimer language, human oversight, logging/traceability concepts where applicable) Support governance for fine-tuning and model improvement responsibilities, including risk allocation and safe-use commitments aligned to enterprise expectations and emerging standards Help design "policy-to-code" alignment: turning governance requirements into implementable product controls with the technical team.
