Associate Litigation Counsel (English, Portuguese)

Job description

info_outline 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. As Associate Litigation Counsel on the Brazilian legal team, you are an outstanding lawyer with a genuine interest in technology who thinks creatively and strategically. You are an adept litigation counsel, advising on a variety of legal matters that pose litigation risk to our business in Brazil, including lawsuits relating to consumer issues and product liability, content moderation and intermediary liability.

You come up with creative ways to mitigate and eliminate those risks, and strive to think proactively to advance Google’s position and interests by identifying and working on legal policy issues that affect our docket. You enjoy rolling up your sleeves to handle these issues, but at the same time are eager to pitch in where needed to assist our rapidly growing businesses in a collegial, fast-paced environment. 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.
