As a publicly traded company on the NYSE under ticker INFQ, we operate at the intersection of advanced research, disciplined engineering, and market execution.

 Built on deep scientific expertise, we are now accelerating our commercial and public company capabilities to support disciplined growth at scale. Legal plays a central role in enabling that transition.

Position Summary:

Infleqtion is seeking a Senior Counsel, Corporate & Securities to report directly to the Chief Legal Officer and serve as a critical legal partner for corporate governance, securities compliance, and public company matters.

Approximately 70–80% of this role will focus on corporate governance, SEC reporting support, equity and entity management, and board-related matters. The remainder will involve broader legal generalist responsibilities within a lean, high-impact legal team supporting a NYSE-listed company.

This role requires strong judgment, attention to detail, operational discipline, and the ability to translate complex regulatory and public company requirements into practical, scalable processes while operating effectively in a high-growth, reporting-driven environment.

 Core Responsibilities:

Corporate Governance & Board Support

  • Lead and support the preparation and review of SEC filings, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, and proxy statements.
  • Assist in drafting disclosure language and coordinating cross-functional input for periodic and current reports.
  • Partner with the Chief Legal Officer in supporting Board of Directors and committee processes, including preparation of materials, resolutions, minutes, and governance documentation.
  • Help maintain corporate governance policies and ensure alignment with NYSE listing standards and evolving regulatory requirements.

Securities & Compliance

  • Administer and enhance insider trading compliance programs, including blackout processes and related training.
  • Support equity plan governance and coordination with Finance and HR on stock administration matters.
  • Partner with Finance and executive leadership to maintain and strengthen disclosure controls and procedures.
  • Monitor and interpret developments in securities law, public company governance, and regulatory requirements.

Entity Management & Operational Integration

  • Oversee corporate entity management, including subsidiary governance, intercompany matters, and maintenance of corporate records.
  • Contribute to scalable governance processes and documentation frameworks to support growth and international expansion.
  • Deliver targeted training to internal stakeholders on governance, securities compliance, and public company responsibilities.
  • Support cross-functional corporate, regulatory, and strategic initiatives as needed.

Requirements
  • JD from an accredited law school with strong academic credentials.
  • 6+ years of relevant legal experience, including significant exposure to corporate governance and securities matters; top-tier law firm training strongly preferred.
  • Experience supporting public company reporting and board processes preferred.
  • Comfort operating in a lean environment with high ownership and limited bureaucracy.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple reporting deadlines and competing priorities with precision.
  • Strong executive communication skills and ability to distill complex regulatory requirements into practical guidance.

Cultural and Performance Expectations:

We are building a high-accountability, execution-focused culture. Success in this role requires:

  • An ownership mindset with bias toward action.
  • Ability to balance urgency with precision and regulatory discipline.
  • Willingness to coach business teams and actively seek coaching and feedback in return.
  • Comfort giving and receiving direct feedback.
  • Discipline in documentation, process development, and follow-through.
  • Intellectual curiosity about capital markets, governance trends, and emerging regulatory developments.
  • Resilience in a resource-constrained, fast-evolving environment.

This is a builder role for a lawyer who wants to help shape the governance and compliance foundation of a scaling public technology company.

This role is open to fully remote candidates.
