    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.
    • Translate customer feedback and lawyer needs into clear product requirements for engineering.
    • Improve prompts, modules, and automated workflows to make the platform more useful and reliable.
    • 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.
