Job Description

We're transforming the grocery industry At Instacart, we invite the world to share love through food because we believe everyone should have access to the food they love and more time to enjoy it together. Where others see a simple need for grocery delivery, we see exciting complexity and endless opportunity to serve the varied needs of our community. We work to deliver an essential service that customers rely on to get their groceries and household goods, while also offering safe and flexible earnings opportunities to Instacart Personal Shoppers. Instacart has become a lifeline for millions of people, and we’re building the team to help push our shopping cart forward. If you’re ready to do the best work of your life, come join our table. Instacart is a Flex First team There’s no one-size fits all approach to how we do our best work. Our employees have the flexibility to choose where they do their best work—whether it’s from home, an office, or your favorite coffee shop—while staying connected and building community through regular in-person events. Learn more about our flexible approach to where we work. Why this role is on the menu Instacart operates at the intersection of food access, gig economy labor, and marketplace regulation, making legislative and regulatory engagement a core business function, not an afterthought. As the regulatory landscape around gig economy platforms, marketplace operators, and labor practices continues to evolve rapidly, the Legislative and Labor Team needs a skilled lawyer to analyze emerging requirements, build compliance frameworks, and shape the regulatory conversation before it shapes Instacart. Without this role, gaps in legal analysis and compliance strategy could create operational risk across multiple areas of the business. A year from now, Instacart will have stronger legal frameworks in place, clearer compliance strategies across regulatory domains, and a more coordinated voice in the cross-industry conversations that define the rules of the road for the gig economy.

What you'll cook up in your first year - Cross-functional regulatory responses are coordinated with clarity: Policy and Government Affairs, Operations, Product, and Communications teams have a consistent, well-analyzed legal perspective on legislative matters affecting Instacart's operations. - A comprehensive review of legislation impacting gig economy participants, marketplaces, retailers, and consumers is complete, with actionable legal guidance delivered to business partners to drive compliant operations. - Legal frameworks and compliance best practices for meeting legislative and regulatory mandates are developed and documented, giving the company a foundation to navigate evolving requirements with confidence. - Instacart's relationships with external counsel, trade associations, and industry partners are actively managed, with cross-industry initiatives underway that contribute to shaping the regulatory conversation in favor of gig economy innovation. - Expertise in emerging areas of law relevant to Instacart's business is built and shared internally, ensuring the team is prepared to respond to new legal challenges as they arise. The secret ingredients we're looking for Must-have pantry staples (Minimum Qualifications) - Juris Doctor (JD) degree. - 3+ years of experience practicing law. - Demonstrated ability to synthesize, analyze, and provide precise legal advice in response to legislative updates. - Experience working with legislative bodies, government agencies, or regulatory matters. - Proven success in supporting compliance initiatives and executing legal frameworks. - Understanding of legislative processes and the regulatory landscape. Optional garnishes (Preferred Qualifications) - Experience with legislative or regulatory strategy.
