- High level of intellectual curiosity, no matter how big or small the task
- Demonstrated analytical and problem solving skills
- Ability to quickly learn about new and complex issues
- Experience in owning projects from start to finish or are excited to gain this skill set
- Loves to work independently with some oversight and values flexibility
- Scrappy and resourceful to complete tasks and projects

What the job involves
- At Super, you will learn what it is like to work in-house at a fast-paced, venture-backed startup that is pushing to provide better opportunities and experiences to underserved individuals in new and innovative ways
- The legal department is composed of a small group of professionals who are committed to not only supporting the advancement of our company’s goals, but also to the professional development of each team member
- In this role, you will report directly to the Product Counsel, but will interface daily with our Associate Product Counsel, General Counsel, and Legal Operations Manager
- You can expect to regularly be assigned projects where you are asked to provide legal analysis on a wide variety of topics, including privacy law, banking regulations, intellectual property, and commercial transactions. Interns can also expect to work editing and drafting contracts that range in scope from a one-page addenda to a 50-page Master Service Agreement
- We encourage our interns to share with us what areas of law interest them the most so we are better able to assign projects that directly relate to their passions
- Super’s legal team also maintains an emphasis on the development of professional skills that aren’t always taught in law school—we provide additional training on interpersonal interactions, insight into contract negotiation tactics, and help you navigate establishing yourself as an attorney in whatever area of law you pursue
- Work cross functionally to advise marketing, product, engineering, and customer care teams on product development and new features
- Perform legal research on applicable laws and regulations related to all three verticals, new product features, and innovative approaches to marketing
- Contract drafting, reviewing, and proofreading (including influencer agreements, freelance writer agreements, master service agreements, DPAs, third-party vendors, etc.)
- Think outside the box to develop and enhance processes for legal support of e-commerce, travel, and fintech verticals
- Collaborate often with internal stakeholders to execute on cross-company projects
- Understand and balance legal risks within the context of a business
- Prepare internal training materials for non-legal staff (privilege, confidentiality, influencer negotiations, data protection)
- Communicate with outside counsel on a variety of matters including employment law, data protection, and litigation issues
Our take
eCommerce scaleup Super (formerly known as Snapcommerce) is looking to revolutionize the eCommerce experience. Instead of shopping around disparate sources for the best consumer product deals, Super wants users to be able to send a message to their account and have the best personalized deals returned, ready to purchase.
The company has tried-and-tested this approach with its flagship and original platform Snaptravel, which delivers travel deals via a text-like interface across Messenger, WhatsApp, and SMS. It proved a hit, crossing the $1B sales mark with nearly half of sales coming from repeat customers. This is substantial, as any significant overhaul of how people shop requires both efficacy and popularity to catch on - Snaptravel has both, which bodes well for the broader Super brand.
The recent boom in eCommerce has spilt over into a marked increase in mobile commerce, too. With Gen Z more likely to shop using mobile, and this demographic maturing into a substantial consumer demographic, Super, with some serious funding to its name, is poised to lead a bold and lucrative new wave in online shopping.
