About the Role
You will be a critical member of Lyra’s growing legal team, within its US Privacy division, supporting internal stakeholders in fulfilling Lyra’s mission to bring mental and emotional health solutions to large employers across the country and around the world.
This is a full-time remote role and will report to Lyra’s Sr. Director, Associate General Counsel - Global Privacy, and work closely in the US with the Privacy Counsel, US, the Sr. Privacy Manager, and the Senior Privacy Paralegal. The role will also involve working with the Privacy Counsel, International and the Data Protection Specialist, who are both based in the UK.
You will be expected to work independently in managing questions around a broad scope of privacy issues, conducting legal research, counseling internal stakeholders to resolve privacy questions, and leading projects to support the growth of both Lyra’s privacy program and AI governance.

The ideal candidate will be a passionate privacy attorney with a proactive nature, and an enthusiasm for new technologies, such as AI, and their governance, and someone who is searching for a collaborative environment brimming with novel questions.
The privacy division of Lyra’s legal team plays an essential role at the company, responding to and managing complex privacy and AI questions and establishing a framework to support legal and programmatic privacy and AI initiatives.

Stay abreast of, analyze, and advise on evolving US laws and regulations relating to privacy and AI at both the state and federal level. Update the legal team and the business on relevant new regulatory requirements and feed into policy and procedural documentation.
Support international AI regulatory compliance by partnering with the Privacy Counsel, International on the EU AI Act and other global AI regulations, including leading horizon scanning efforts and proactively delivering insights and updates to the legal team and broader Lyra business.
Collaborate with commercial counsel to ensure that privacy provisions in commercial agreements and Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) appropriately manage risk and comply with privacy policies, laws, rules, regulations, and company objectives.

Work cross-functionally to advise product and business teams on potential privacy and AI regulatory implications of Lyra’s new and existing product lines, including reviewing and approving product requirement documents (PRDs).
