Role Description

We are looking for a Contracts and Vendor Operations Specialist with a strong background in commercial contracts review, vendor onboarding, and contract lifecycle management to support the day-to-day legal operations function at Thinkof. You will work directly with the Founder and President and escalate substantive legal questions to outside counsel. This role does not provide legal advice; it executes against established playbooks and templates.

Key Responsibilities

· Run vendor onboarding end to end: intake form, due diligence checklist, SOC 2 or ISO request, W-9 collection, DocuSign routing, and CRM record

· Maintain a single contracts and vendor register: counterparty, agreement type, effective date, renewal date, notice period, owner, and key obligations

· Track renewals 90, 60, and 30 days out and surface decision points to the Founder before auto-renewal triggers

· Coordinate signature workflows in DocuSign including tagging, signer order, exhibit assembly, and post-execution filing

· Manage offboarding of terminated vendors including license recovery, final payment, data deletion attestations, and surviving obligations log

· Document recurring processes as written SOPs and identify automation opportunities

· Support SOC 2 and ISO 27001 evidence collection related to vendor management and contract obligations

Qualifications

· Three or more years of hands-on contracts review or vendor management experience at a technology, professional services, or law firm setting

· Strong working knowledge of commercial contract terms: indemnification, limitation of liability, IP ownership, confidentiality, warranties, termination, assignment, and survival

· Demonstrated experience redlining NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, and DPAs against a standard playbook

· Experience operating a contract lifecycle management (CLM) workflow, even if manual in Excel / SharePoint

· DocuSign proficiency including envelope tagging, template management, and audit trail handling

· Comfort with U.S. data protection terminology and SOC 2 evidence requests

· Ability to work independently and remotely without daily supervision

· Discretion handling confidential commercial terms, vendor pricing, and counterparty information

· Paralegal certificate, CIPP, or contract management certification (CCCM, CFCM) is a plus
