Sr. Legal Counsel, International Public Sector Compliance

Job Overview

Databricks is seeking a Senior Counsel to scale our international Public Sector compliance program by providing practical, risk-balanced compliance and integrity advice for priority EMEA and other international markets. In this role you will partner closely with our in-region Public Sector contracting legal team and cross-functional stakeholders to enable responsible growth, and develop scalable guidance that works across jurisdictions.

Key points

  1. Be a trusted advisor to Public Sector stakeholders by providing timely, business-oriented compliance guidance that helps unblock deals and GTM execution across international markets.

  2. Lead localization of our Public Sector compliance guidance for priority countries/regions, translating global principles into locally workable approaches while keeping standards consistent across jurisdictions.

  3. Partner cross-functionally to deliver clear guardrails and options that support growth while appropriately managing risk.

  4. Build reusable playbooks, templates, and enablement so that teams can move faster with greater confidence and less reinvention across regions.

  5. Experience advising on public sector procurement/government contracting or related compliance issues in EMEA; comfortable navigating multi-jurisdiction complexity.

  6. Strong builder mindset: you enjoy turning complex fast-moving ambiguous issues into scalable guidance and systems (templates, playbooks, enablement) that teams can actually use.

  7. Investigations experience is a plus (scoping, interviews, evidence management, clear written outputs), with sensitivity to local requirements and practices.

  8. Clear, executive-ready communicator who can frame risk, options and recommendations; strong cross-functional influence.
