Legal Counsel

Who we are

Our mission at Quandri is to transform insurance into a trusted and delightful experience using AI. We're doing this by delivering an AI operating system for North America's leading insurance agencies and brokerages.

Quandri is transforming the insurance experience for policyholders across North America by providing AI to the industry's critical stakeholders - insurance agencies and brokerages. Insurance agents are the lifeblood of the insurance industry, and are where most Property & Casualty insurance is sold and serviced. Yet, there are forces making it harder than ever for them to operate; more consolidation, rising talent crisis, increasing complexity of insurance and the AI revolution are significant challenges for how agencies have typically operated.

This challenge is a massive opportunity to rethink how insurance agencies operate. Quandri is at the cutting edge of this change, delivering transformation to the entire insurance experience one process at a time through the deep understanding of insurance workflows, systems and data paired with deep technical capabilities and proprietary models.

We're making insurance better for policyholders, while helping insurance brokerages deliver a better client service, grow faster, and harness AI so that they control the future of insurance distribution.

You'll join a fast-moving team with real ownership, direct access to leadership, and a genuine hand in shaping the company's next chapter.

We are headquartered in beautiful Vancouver, BC, backed by leading US and Canadian investors, and the recognition has followed:

• Linked In’s Top Canadian Startups in 2024 & 2025

• Deloitte’s Fast 50

• CB Insights’ Insurtech 50 and Fintech 100

• The Globe and Mail’s Top Growing Companies in Canada.

This is Quandri's first in-house legal hire, and it exists because our contract volume has outgrown the model of routing everything through external counsel. We sell to some of the largest brokerages and agency networks in North America. That means negotiations, redlines, security reviews, and data licensing questions, on deals that matter.

We're looking for a commercially-minded lawyer, who wants their first or second in-house seat and wants to take on ownership. You'll own the deal desk: the templates, the playbooks, the fallback positions, and the negotiations themselves. You'll report to and partner closely with the Head of Finance & Operations, and work with external counsel when necessary. You'll also partner closely with our Operations team, who owns our SOC 2 program and vendor management, while you own the contractual and data protection side of that work.

This is a role for someone who wants to be in the deal, and who is energized by a job description that will keep changing. You'll sit with Sales on live negotiations, with Product and Engineering on how our AI actually handles customer data, and with the exec team on the risks worth taking. Some weeks you'll be deep in a redline;

others you'll be figuring out an AI governance framework or a partnership structure that nobody here has done before. If you want to build a legal function from a blank page in an AI-native company and grow with it, this is that job.

• Own the deal desk - Run customer contracting: MSAs, order forms, change orders, DPAs, and NDAs. You'll take first pass and final pass on redlines, negotiate directly with counter party counsel and procurement, and be the person Sales comes to when a deal is stuck on terms. External counsel stays involved on our largest enterprise agreements; you own everything else and you own the relationship with them on the deals that do go out.

• Build the contracting infrastructure - Build out our templates, negotiation playbooks, fallback positions, and approval thresholds so that most deals never need a lawyer  goal is not to review more contracts, it's to build a system where the obvious ones move without you and your attention goes to the ones that actually carry risk.

• Own the contractual side of security and privacy - You own data processing and data residency terms, sub-processor commitments, security exhibits, SLAs,…
