About the job
As Corporate Counsel at Google, you work on the most exciting legal issues as disruptive technological innovations require creative and proactive legal guidance. You're part of a whip-smart group of in-house lawyers and the projects and cases you take on challenge you to think big and differently. You are collaborative - ready to partner in initiatives that influence all aspects of the business and work with Googlers from all over the company. As an integrated part of the team, you proactively assess legal risks and advise on products that will not only move information into the 21st century, but move information law forward as well.
In this role, you will work as part of the Greater China Legal team managing a wide range of legal matters in Hong Kong. You will need to be a strong legal generalist, and have an understanding of intellectual property and Internet laws including privacy, content regulations, and online commerce. You should also have a significant prior experience in managing regulatory issues and drafting licensing, sales, strategic alliance and services agreements, with a genuine interest in technology and Internet. In this role, you'll advise the business on its activities in Hong Kong, including key legal risks and strategies, and work closely with legal team members to roll out new products, negotiate key agreements and manage regulatory challenges and litigation.
20th century laws don't always solve 21st century problems, and Google Legal crafts innovative approaches for working with some of the toughest legal challenges of the information age. Whether you're a patent attorney, an intellectual property expert or an engineer headed to law school, Google Legal lets you address unanswered legal quandaries and create new precedents. Our innovative services raise challenging questions that demand creative and practical answers. We provide those answers by working at the crossroads of the law and new technology, helping Google build innovative and important products for users around the world.
Responsibilities
  • Conduct legal reviews of Google’s products, marketing and sales initiatives, and respond promptly to a wide range of legal requests from Sales, Engineering, Product Management, Marketing, Finance and other functional groups.
  • Manage regulatory matters and litigation.
  • Advise executive management and cross-functional project teams in Asia Pacific and USA with regard to potential legal risks and ensure compliance with applicable laws across all aspects of Google’s operations in Hong Kong.
  • Negotiate and draft a variety of commercial agreements.
  • Work with external legal counsel on specific matters ranging from litigation to expert advice requests.
Google is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is an affirmative action employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status. We also consider qualified applicants regardless of criminal histories, consistent with legal requirements. See also Google's EEO Policy and EEO is the Law.
