Zeynep joins from Atlassian, where as CMO she led a 450+ person marketing organization spanning brand, product marketing, demand generation, communications, performance marketing, and events. Before Atlassian, she served as CMO at Palo Alto Networks, where she oversaw the company’s rapid expansion into multiple cybersecurity categories over a period of 5x increase in market cap. Zeynep holds a PhD in Machine Learning from the University of Cambridge.

"Zeynep has done what very few marketers have: she has built enterprise marketing motions, led a product-led growth business with direct revenue accountability, and operated at large scale without losing the builder instinct that makes great marketing," said Max Junestrand, CEO and Co-Founder of Legora. "She will play a critical role in our global expansion and continued brand momentum."

With more than 100,000 users and over 1,200 customers across 50+ countries, Legora is moving from breakout company to enduring global category leader. Zeynep joins the executive team at a pivotal moment to help scale the business globally, deepen its position with the world’s leading law firms and legal teams, and build on the brand momentum Legora has already established.

“Law is one of the most high-stakes, precision-driven professions in the world, and agentic AI has the potential to reimagine how legal work is done from the ground up,” said Zeynep Inanoglu Ozdemir. “Legora has built a strong foundation with a product and team that deeply understand how lawyers work. I’m excited to help scale that foundation and build a category-defining company that will shape the future of legal work.”

Zeynep is based in San Francisco, where she will also support Legora's expanding U.S. presence.
