About the role

Roku is looking for an Associate General Counsel, Litigation to join our Legal team. This role owns Roku’s litigation portfolio outside of intellectual property matters — including consumer class actions, commercial disputes, and government investigations, with a particular focus on privacy-related litigation and related regulatory enforcement actions — across a business that spans hardware, streaming, and one of the fastest-growing advertising platforms in media.

You will manage disputes and government inquiries end-to-end, from first notice through resolution — building the strategy, directing outside counsel, and making the call on when to fight, settle, or escalate. This role reports to the VP, Deputy General Counsel, Strategic Litigation and IP.

We think of running a case as a creative act, not just a process. The matters that land here rarely come with a clean playbook — the facts are incomplete, the law is unsettled, or the right answer just isn’t obvious yet. We’re looking for someone who is energized by that kind of ambiguity: who can construct a novel argument or a case theory nobody else saw, stay clear-headed when a matter is genuinely indeterminate, and write their way to a conclusion — briefs, internal memos, demand letters, whatever the moment calls for — with the kind of clarity and force that changes how people see the case.

The estimated annual base salary for this position is between $285,000 and $315,000 with additional equity. Compensation packages are based on factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, certifications, and specific geographic location. This role is eligible for health insurance, equity awards, life insurance, disability benefits, parental leave, wellness benefits, and paid time off.

What should I know about Roku's culture?

Roku is a great place for people who want to work in a fast-paced environment where everyone is focused on the company's success rather than their own. We try to surround ourselves with people who are great at their jobs, who are easy to work with, and who keep their egos in check. We appreciate a sense of humor. We believe a fewer number of very talented folks can do more for less cost than a larger number of less talented teams. We're independent thinkers with big ideas who act boldly, move fast and accomplish extraordinary things through collaboration and trust. In short, at Roku you'll be part of a company that's changing how the world watches TV.

We have a unique culture that we are proud of. We think of ourselves primarily as problem-solvers, which itself is a two-part idea. We come up with the solution, but the solution isn't real until it is built and delivered to the customer. That penchant for action gives us a pragmatic approach to innovation, one that has served us well since 2002.
