Regulatory Counsel

Regulatory Counsel San Francisco, CA · In-Office (Hybrid) About Meter Meter’s mission is to make the internet a utility: a world where any business can turn on reliable, secure, enterprise-grade internet at any physical location as easily as it turns on power or water. Getting there is genuinely hard, because internet and networking have become deeply fragmented and crystallized. So Meter does the whole thing: we design and manufacture our own networking hardware, procure and manage ISPs, design, configure, and physically install networks, operate and monitor them once they’re live, and are working toward running them autonomously. Put differently, Meter is a hardware company, a software and models company, an internet service provider, an installer, and a real estate business, all at once. Why this role matters Each one of those businesses carries its own body of regulation and ethics questions. And you’ll be the lawyer who clears the path so Meter can rapidly and responsibly enter new business and geographic markets. You’ll guide Meter in becoming an ISP in the US, Canada, UK, EU, Australia, and the rest of world; shape how Meter responsibly handles data and builds AI; build and manage Meter’s international risk compliance program; work with compliance engineering to clear our hardware through FCC and safety reviews; and manage day-to-day employment and safety matters. This is a founding role, reporting to the General Counsel and based in San Francisco. It is among the broadest regulatory remits you’ll find in-house, and you’ll be building it from the early days rather than inheriting a machine someone else made. What you’ll do Learn to be Meter’s telecom lawyer, guiding our path to becoming an ISP across the US, Canada, UK, EU, Australia and rest of world. Methodically build Meter’s international risk compliance program (across FCPA, export controls, CFIUS, and sanctions), and project-manage entry into each new international market end-to-end.
