About the Role
Join an early-stage legal technology team as the bridge between legal, customers, and product. You will turn legal needs into reliable AI-powered workflows and help ensure customers are onboarded successfully.
What You'll Do
- Map customer commercial needs into tailored legal workflows on the platform.
- Review and validate AI-flagged legal issues for accuracy and completeness across documents and filings.

- Build and refine legal workflows using tools such as Claude, MCP servers, and CLI tools.
What We're Looking For
- At least two years of combined experience in legal practice, legal technology, law firm innovation, or an in-house legal function. Relevant experience is expected to be within the two-to-eight-year range.
- A JD or prior legal practice experience, or experience working in legal technology.
- Hands-on experience building with AI tools such as Claude, MCP servers, CLI tools, or code-generation tools; a computer science degree is not required.
- Experience translating legal needs into automated workflows, prompts, or product requirements.
- Strong contract judgment and the ability to assess AI-generated legal work for accuracy and completeness.
- Comfort working independently in a fast-moving, early-stage environment.
