Assistant General Counsel, Corporate

About the Role As Marqeta’s Assistant General Counsel, Corporate, you will be a senior member of the Corporate Legal team and the right hand to the Deputy General Counsel on corporate and securities matters. You will own core SEC reporting, drive corporate governance, support the Board and its committees, and serve as the primary drafter of the proxy statement and related disclosure materials. This is not a generic corporate role — our ideal candidate has deep public-company securities and governance experience and can translate complex obligations into practical guidance for a fast-moving executive team. We offer Flexible First work arrangements with remote options within the United States or from our Oakland office. What You'll Do

• Support the Disclosure Committee, coordinating cross-functional review and certification processes with Finance, IR, and executive leadership.
• Monitor SEC rulemaking developments, NYSE listing standards, and proxy advisory guidance (ISS/Glass Lewis) that may affect Marqeta's disclosure obligations.
• Board & Committee Support: staffing the Marqeta Board of Directors and its committees — including the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Payments Innovation Committee, and Nominating & Governance Committee. Prepare board and committee materials, including legal memos, management presentations, and action items. Coordinate materials through Marqeta's secure board portal (Diligent).
