Sullivan & Cromwell is seeking experienced associates to join the Firm's Intellectual Property & Technology Transactions group. Ideal candidates should have at least three years of experience working in the IP and technology transactions practice of a similar law firm and whose practice has been focused on large companies (e.g., not early-stage companies). The Firm has a preference for candidates with substantial experience in IP/technology elements of M&A transactions (in particular divestitures) and significant commercial agreements. While certainly not required, candidates who have a science/technical background and commercial AI experience (compute/digital infrastructure transactions + commercial partnerships) are a soft plus. This is an opportunity for experienced lawyers, and as such, current law students are not eligible for consideration for this particular role. About the
