<div><div><p>
Our client is the technology and AI growth engine of a multi-billion-dollar enterprise, actively building one of the most consequential AI infrastructure platforms in the MENA region. This is a high-stakes transformation mandate, not a steady-state operation. You will provide the legal leadership to make the companies rapid growth defensible. You will own end-to-end contract negotiations across technically complex, high-value commercial arrangements spanning GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS), data centre agreements, and chip procurement. Your mandate is clear: protect the business while enabling rapid, frictionless execution.</p><p><b>
The Role</b></p><p>
You will <b>lead high-stakes, SLA-driven contract negotiations</b> for GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) and cloud environments, defining critical technical benchmarks like uptime commitments and remediation frameworks. You will <b>drive the full legal lifecycle</b> for chip procurement, data centre services, platform licensing, and enterprise customer agreements from initial term sheet through to execution. <b>Navigating global compliance</b> will be a core responsibility as you manage complex export controls, trade compliance, and cross-border technology transfers&mdash;specifically regarding US-origin hardware and software&mdash;across the MENA region and beyond. Furthermore, you will <b>build organizational infrastructure</b> by establishing robust legal playbooks and contract management frameworks that support high-volume commercial velocity without sacrificing rigour. Throughout these initiatives, you will act as a <b>strategic advisor</b>, partnering directly with the C-suite, Commercial, Finance, and Technology teams to translate complex technical realities into enforceable, commercially sound contracts.</p><p><b>
The Candidate</b></p><p>
The ideal candidate brings <b>15&ndash;20 years of post-qualification legal experience</b>, backed by a proven track record in technology, cloud services, Artificial Intelligence infrastructure, or hardware procurement, with a strong preference for prior in-house experience in a high-growth tech environment. You possess <b>deep technical depth</b> in infrastructure-specific SLAs, GPU-as-a-Service models, and multi-party commercial structures. Your <b>regulatory savvy</b> includes hands-on experience dealing with international export controls and cross-border technology compliance. As a leader, you operate as a <b>strategic partner</b> who communicates legal risk in sharp commercial terms, bringing the confidence to push back and the sound judgement required to move fast. A significant differentiator for this role is practical experience <b>negotiating against hyperscalers</b>, GPU manufacturers, or major data centre operators.</p><p>
This role is not for a generalist lawyer who has touched technology. It is designed for a true specialist who has lived&mdash;and thrived&mdash;at the absolute intersection of legal, commercial, and technical complexity.</p><p>
