From Beacon Software's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Beacon is building the essential technology infrastructure for the everyday economy: the businesses, organizations, and services that make real life work, and that mainstream tech has largely left behind. We acquire, operate, and grow vertical market software and services companies: niche, founder-built businesses serving industries that are too specific for the enterprise giants and too profitable to ignore. Our model is simple. We buy great businesses, invest in their continued growth, and hold them permanently.
We are not a financial firm. We are technology entrepreneurs and operators who believe the most important businesses in the world are already running quietly in industries most people never think about. Our job is to find them, support the people who built them, and make them better. We seek out founders who have built their business by spending years understanding their market and prioritizing their customers' specific needs.
Our flexible structure offers entrepreneurs a unique option to implement a transition that ensures the continuity of the company while receiving liquidity at full value for their equity in their business. No mandate to cut, flip, or roll up into something unrecognizable.
We are permanent, committed capital with no exit pressure and a long-term time horizon, backed by a diverse base of investors including Wall Street (D1 Capital, CPMG), Silicon Valley (General Catalyst and Lightspeed), the family offices of world-class technology entrepreneurs (including the founders of Stripe, DoorDash, and Ramp), and evergreen funds built for the long game (Sator Grove).
Beacon was founded by Nilam Ganenthiran, entrepreneur, former President of Instacart, and investor at D1 Capital, who has spent his career building, scaling, and backing high-growth technology businesses.
We are seeking a strategic and hands-on Privacy Counsel to join Beacon’s legal team as our first dedicated privacy specialist. This is a foundational role: you will build Beacon’s privacy strategy and architecture from the ground up, establishing the frameworks, policies, and processes that will govern how Beacon and its growing portfolio of vertical market software companies collect, use, and protect data.
Reporting to Beacon’s VP, Legal, you will partner closely with our IT, Governance, and Risk leader to architect a privacy program that is robust, scalable, and fit for a multi-jurisdictional technology acquirer. You will own data privacy end-to-end across the deal lifecycle — from pre-acquisition diligence through integration and post-close operations — while also advising on day-to-day privacy matters across the Beacon platform.
This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role for a privacy lawyer who wants to build something lasting, not just maintain the status quo.
