WHERE WE WORK
Udemy is a global company headquartered in San Francisco, with additional U.S. offices in Denver and Austin, and international hubs in Australia, India, Ireland, Mexico, and Türkiye. This is an in-office position, requiring three days a week in the office (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) and flexibility on Mondays and Fridays.
ABOUT THIS ROLE
This is a senior in-house legal role for a commercially driven lawyer ready to take meaningful ownership of a high-profile deal portfolio at the intersection of enterprise growth and platform strategy. The role reports directly to the Head of Commercial and Strategic Growth Legal. We operate a hybrid go-to-market model that combines demand-led direct sales, solution-led growth, and indirect distribution through a tiered partner and channel ecosystem. We reach organizations globally through technology alliances, GSI relationships, channel partners, and reseller arrangements — powering learning and capability-building at scale. Legal sits at the center of all three motions. You will be a dedicated legal partner for B2B Enterprise, Technology Alliances, and Channel and Distribution Partnerships, supporting the development and negotiation of the indirect partner ecosystem that underpins our scalable distribution. This is a role for someone who combines deep transactional expertise with strong business instincts, operates with a high degree of independence, and is ready to grow into broader leadership responsibility within a scaling legal function.
ABOUT YOUR SKILLS
- Exceptional business judgement and a proven ability to balance legal risk with commercial objectives in fast-moving deal environments.
- Executive-level communication skills: able to distill complex issues into clear, actionable guidance and influence stakeholders from SMB to large enterprise and C-suite.
- A track record of using approved AI tools to increase legal productivity, and staying current on AI governance obligations.
WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING
B2B Enterprise, Ecosystems and Technology Transactions
- Take primary ownership of drafting, reviewing, and negotiating complex commercial agreements across global system integrator arrangements, channel partner and reseller agreements, technology alliance and co-sell agreements, enterprise SaaS and platform licensing, API and technical integration agreements, and distribution and go-to-market partnerships.
- Advise senior business stakeholders, including GTM leadership, and Product teams, on deal structuring, risk allocation, commercial terms, and multi-jurisdictional GTM considerations, serving as the day-to-day legal lead who positions Legal as a genuine business enabler.
- Partner with the Product Legal team to develop and refine legal frameworks that support a self-serve and low-touch commercial motion, including API access agreements, developer terms, usage-based licensing structures, and SMB onboarding frameworks, contributing to a standardized, scalable approach that enables businesses to engage and onboard with speed and minimal friction.
- Provide clear, solution-focused guidance on AI-related commercial arrangements, data-sharing agreements, and emerging technology implementations as they enter the enterprise deal mix.
GTM Product Commercialisation and Third-Party Integration
- Act as a primary legal partner for the commercialisation of GTM products, advising on go-to-market structures, route-to-market models, pricing and packaging frameworks, and the legal terms that govern how products are brought to market directly and through third parties.
- Draft and negotiate agreements that govern the embedding, bundling, or distribution of our products within third-party platforms, marketplaces, and ecosystems, including white-label arrangements, OEM agreements, co-branded offerings, and platform integration terms.
- Advise on licensing boundaries and revenue-sharing constructs as the product suite evolves and is commercialised through an expanding range of direct and indirect channels.
- Work closely with Product, Product Legal, Marketing, and Sales to ensure commercial and legal structures keep pace with product development and new route-to-market initiatives, flagging and resolving legal considerations early in the product lifecycle.
Frameworks, Templates and Legal Scalability
- Own and continuously develop the suite of enterprise and channel contracting templates, playbooks, negotiation guidelines, and approval frameworks used across the partnerships function.
- Design scalable legal infrastructure that empowers fast-moving deal teams to execute efficiently while maintaining sound risk controls across both direct and indirect channels.
- Partner with Legal Operations on contract management tooling, reporting workflows, and process improvements.
- Support the Head of Commercial and Strategic Growth Legal on broader function-building initiatives, team training, and cross-functional policy development.
Risk, Compliance and Cross-Functional Partnership
- Embed GDPR and applicable data privacy obligations into enterprise, partner, and platform agreements, working in close coordination with Product Legal, Privacy, and Information Security colleagues.
- Collaborate with Finance, Sales Operations, Product, and Procurement on deal economics, commercial policies, product launches, and vendor governance matters.
- Track developments across technology regulation, AI law, data protection, and enterprise software contracting, translating these into timely, practical guidance for the business.
WHAT YOU’LL HAVE
- Demonstrable experience with API-first or self-serve commercial models including developer terms, usage-based licensing, and SMB onboarding frameworks, and the confidence to lead the design and build-out of the legal infrastructure needed to support organic, low-friction acquisition at scale.
- Genuinely commercial in your approach: able to identify and manage risk pragmatically, find workable solutions under pressure, and avoid being a blocker to growth.
- An effective communicator and influencer, comfortable advising and challenging senior stakeholders across Sales, Product, and Executive leadership.
- Qualified lawyer with 6–9 years of post-qualification experience, including meaningful in-house tenure at a technology, SaaS, or enterprise software company.
- A proven track record negotiating complex B2B technology agreements including GSI, channel, reseller, alliance, and enterprise platform deals, ideally within or alongside global organisations.
- Demonstrable experience advising on product commercialisation, route-to-market strategy, or third-party distribution and embedding arrangements.
- Comfortable operating across both high-touch enterprise deals and high-volume standardised indirect channel frameworks, understanding that each requires a different legal posture.
- Highly organised and self-directed, with a demonstrated ability to manage a high-volume deal workload across competing priorities and deadlines with minimal supervision.
- A collaborative team player who understands their place in a broader legal function and actively supports those around them, including upward to leadership.
- Discreet, professional, and trusted to handle sensitive commercial and strategic information appropriately.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship in Chief Growth Officer
Frame your credentials around advisory functions
TN visa eligibility for CGO roles depends on demonstrating that your work is consultative, not purely managerial. Compile a portfolio of strategic frameworks, growth audits, and market analyses you've produced, not just revenue outcomes you oversaw.
Search for employers with established immigration protocols
Target companies that have previously sponsored professional visas. Employers with a dedicated HR or legal team for immigration filings move faster and make fewer classification errors on TN support letters, which directly affects your timeline.
Request a precise duty statement before accepting an offer
The TN support letter must describe your role in terms of analysis, recommendations, and advisory deliverables. Ask the hiring team to avoid language like 'oversee' or 'manage teams' exclusively, as CBP officers weigh this language heavily at the border.
Use Migrate Mate to find TN-eligible roles
Migrate Mate surfaces Chief Growth Officer listings from employers with recent visa filings, demonstrating experience with work visa sponsorship processes. Start there before approaching your broader target list, since these employers are already familiar with visa-related hiring procedures.
Prepare a secondary classification argument in advance
If CBP questions whether a CGO fits Management Consultant, a secondary argument under Economist or Scientific Technician may apply depending on your background. Have your degree credentials and a role description ready to support either path.
Confirm your Canadian status before the border, or consulate timing if Mexican
Canadian citizens can apply for TN status directly at a port of entry with no advance filing. Mexican citizens must secure a visa stamp at a U.S. consulate first. Misunderstanding this distinction causes avoidable delays at the offer stage.
Chief Growth Officer TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Chief Growth Officer role qualify for TN visa status?
It can, but qualification depends on how the role is defined, not the title alone. TN status is most defensible when CGO duties center on strategic analysis, market diagnostics, and advisory recommendations. If the role is primarily about managing large teams or operational execution, CBP may not accept the Management Consultant classification. Your employer's duty description is the deciding document.
How does TN compare to H-1B for a Chief Growth Officer position?
TN has no annual lottery and no cap for Canadian citizens, so you can start as soon as an employer is ready. H-1B visa requires entering a randomized lottery that selects roughly one in four registrants. For Mexican citizens, TN has an annual cap of 5,500, but the lottery risk is still lower than H-1B. If you qualify for TN, it is almost always the faster path to authorized work.
What documents does my employer need to prepare for my TN application?
Your employer must provide a support letter on company letterhead that specifies your job title, describes your duties in terms consistent with a recognized TN occupation, confirms the position is temporary, states your compensation, and lists your start date. For Canadian citizens, this letter goes directly to CBP at the port of entry. For Mexican citizens, it accompanies the DS-160 application to a U.S. consulate.
Where can I find Chief Growth Officer jobs with TN visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Canadian and Mexican professionals looking for U.S. roles with TN sponsorship. It filters listings by visa type and occupation category, so you're not sifting through postings from employers unfamiliar with TN requirements. Starting your search there saves significant time compared to general job boards where sponsorship status is unclear.
Can I switch employers after starting a CGO role on a TN visa?
Yes, but your TN status is tied to your current employer and petition. You cannot start work with a new employer until a new TN is approved. For Canadian citizens, the new employer files a fresh TN at the border. For Mexican citizens, a new consular appointment is typically required. Plan your transition timeline carefully to avoid any gap in authorized employment status.
