HÉCTOR R.
Senior Tech & Commercial Lawyer | SaaS, Contracts, IP & AI Governance
I help technology companies get commercial agreements signed and governance frameworks implemented—without turning legal work into a business bottleneck. I am a senior Spanish-qualified lawyer with extensive international experience across commercial contracts, technology, intellectual property, data protection and emerging-technology governance. My background includes senior and lead legal responsibilities with United Nations, European and technology-innovation organizations. I work with SaaS companies, startups, scaleups, international organizations and in-house legal teams on matters including: • SaaS subscription agreements, MSAs, SOWs and enterprise customer contracts • Software licensing, IP ownership, assignments and technology partnerships • Contract review, redlining, negotiation strategy and procurement contracts • GDPR, data processing agreements and international data transfers • Privacy policies, website terms and digital-platform documentation • AI governance, internal AI policies, vendor assessments and EU AI Act readiness • International commercial operations and startup legal risk My approach is practical and commercially focused. Clients receive a precise redline, a prioritized explanation of the material risks, workable fallback language and clear recommendations for decision-makers—not an academic memorandum or generic template. I am comfortable working with founders, executives, procurement teams, product teams and external counsel. I understand the operational realities behind complex agreements and know when a point requires a firm position and when a commercially sensible compromise will move the deal forward. On Upwork, I have completed more than 50 engagements and have been consistently recognized for quality, reliability, collaboration and clear communication. Jurisdiction and scope: I advise on Spanish, EU and cross-border commercial, technology, privacy and governance matters within the scope of my professional authorization. Matters requiring a local-law opinion or representation in another jurisdiction are clearly identified and, where useful, coordinated with locally admitted counsel. Available for focused contract reviews, fixed-scope drafting and ongoing fractional legal support.
