We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth.\nAbout The Role\nWe are looking for a Senior Contracts Manager to take ownership of vendor contracting at Supabase. You will be the go-to contracts partner for everything we buy.\nThis is a hands-on, high-autonomy role with real ownership, for an experienced negotiator who takes pride in making procurement faster while managing risk. You will negotiate directly, build the playbooks and workflows that let the business self-serve on low-risk deals, and escalate the right issues to Legal at the right time. We work AI-first in Legal: you will use Claude and Ironclad every day to move faster and with greater accuracy. Your work will shape how procurement and vendor contracting scale as Supabase grows.\nWhat You Will Do\nOwn vendor contracting end to end\nReview, draft, and negotiate a high volume of vendor agreements, including MSAs, order forms, SOWs, SaaS and cloud subscription terms, DPAs, and NDAs.\n\nServe as the single point of contact for all vendor contracting matters raised by FinOps, IT, Security, and business owners, from intake through signature, renewals, amendments, disputes, and offboarding. As capacity allows, you will also support the broader Commercial Legal team on other matters.\n\nApply and further build out our playbook and risk framework independently, and escalate to the Assistant General Counsel, Commercial where a deal falls outside approved positions or raises novel legal risk.\n\nNegotiate data, privacy, and security terms (DPAs, security exhibits, cross-border transfers) within the Security team’s playbook, and bring in the AGC, Commercial or Privacy for anything outside it.\n\nReview AI vendor terms, such as training on our data, output ownership, and model changes.\n\nBuild and scale vendor contracting operations\nBuild out and maintain our vendor playbook in Claude, so the whole team works from the same guidance and low-risk deals move without bottlenecks.\n\nDesign and improve intake, triage, and approval workflows with FinOps.\n\nOwn the vendor and procurement workflow in Ironclad, including intake, templates, approvals, and the repository, working with Legal Ops, who own the platform. Use it to track renewals and notice windows with FinOps and flag spend concentration risks.\n\nCreate training and self-serve resources for business partners, and raise the visibility of the contracts function as a business enabler.\n\nWhat We Are Looking For\nRequired\n6 to 8+ years of experience negotiating procurement, vendor, or technology transactions contracting, ideally buy-side at a U.S. SaaS or technology company, with deep knowledge of SaaS, cloud, and software licensing terms.\n\nA track record of negotiating directly with vendors and their counsel, independently and at pace.\n\nStrong working knowledge of privacy, data protection, and security terms in commercial contracts, including DPA negotiation and international data transfers.\n\nExperience designing contracting processes that are consistent, transparent, and easy for the business to follow.\n\nClear writing and speaking, with the ability to explain legal and commercial risk plainly and the judgment to know when to hold a position, approve a reasonable risk, or escalate.\n\nComfort using AI tools, Claude in particular, with sound judgment about when to rely on outputs, how to verify them, and how to protect confidential information.\n\nPreferred\nA degree in a relevant field (for example, law, economics, or political science), though we value experience over the specific degree.\n\nSell-side experience negotiating customer, partner, or reseller agreements for a SaaS or technology company, which helps you see vendor terms from the other side.\n\nHands-on experience with Ironclad or a similar CLM tool (Juro, Docusign CLM) or building AI-assisted legal workflows, ideally with some exposure to AI governance.\n\nExperience working across jurisdictions or with distributed, international teams.\n\nExperience at a fast-growing, developer-focused, cloud, security, or open source company.\n\nWhat We Offer\nFully Remote\nWe hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world.\n\nESOP\nEvery team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together.\n\nTech Allowance\nUse this budget to set up your ideal work environment-laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work.\n\nHealth Benefits\nSupabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us.\n\nAnnual Off-Sites\nOnce a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year.\n\nFlexible Work\nWe operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.\n\nProfessional Development\nEvery team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning-courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth.\n\nAbout the Team\nSupabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love.\n~400 team members\n\n60+ countries\n\n20+ languages spoken\n\nOver $1B raised (including our $500M Series F)\n\n540,000+ community members\n\nWe move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support-not replace-existing tools and communities.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5904,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Flexible schedule","Health insurance","Professional development"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cloud Platforms (IaaS & PaaS)","Databases & DBMS","Developer Tools"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-09T15:38:52Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.632,"p_room":1,"age_days":4,"expected_fill_days":68,"reasons":["conf:4","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:remote"],"computed_at":"2026-11-14T05:58:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/supabase-senior-contracts-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/supabase-senior-contracts-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-14T15:34:34Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":17236,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":17114},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=17114"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsupabase-senior-contracts-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsupabase-senior-contracts-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsupabase-senior-contracts-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/supabase-senior-contracts-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsupabase-senior-contracts-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3969731}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"supabase.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3969731},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
