Product Attorney; Litigation

The Position

A well-known global luxury automotive and mobility company is seeking a mid-level Product Counsel to support emerging regulatory and product counseling initiatives tied to connected technologies. The core of this role will focus on navigating the U.S. Department of Commerce Connected Vehicles Rule, partnering closely with Legal leadership, outside counsel, and engineering and procurement teams.

Responsibilities include:

• Helping operationalize a new regulatory regime by turning legal requirements into clear guidance and workable processes
• Supporting required regulatory submissions and documentation in partnership with internal teams and outside counsel
• Working closely with engineering and procurement to surface and address compliance risks across product development and the supply chain
• Staying on top of regulatory updates and ensuring key stakeholders are informed

The ideal candidate has 5–10 years of experience, including prior in-house product counseling and hands-on litigation drafting (motions and other complex filings), and is comfortable rolling up their sleeves to execute in an evolving regulatory environment. This role is best suited for a hands-on, execution-oriented attorney who is comfortable working in ambiguity and motivated by building clarity from scratch.

Targeting an ASAP start, 40+ hours/week, for an initial 4-6 month duration. This project is fully remote; however, limited travel (one-time to California or Michigan) is required for in-person collaboration.

The hourly rate for this assignment is expected to be between $85 and $90. This range is an estimate; an employee’s compensation will be based on the employee’s qualifications, skillset, and relevant experience, specific client needs, project requirements, and other considerations permitted by law.
