We are looking for an R&D Attorney with 5+ years of legal experience to sit at the intersection of law and product — embedded directly with engineering teams to shape the AI features that in-house legal teams rely on every day. You'll bring deep legal expertise and a builder's mindset to help our client define what excellent legal AI actually looks like, from running evals to shipping new features alongside engineers.
What will you be doing?
Embed with engineering squads to co-develop new features and products, serving as the legal voice and product partner throughout the build cycle
Design and run rigorous evaluations (evals) to benchmark AI output quality against top-tier legal standards and competing models
Translate real in-house legal workflows and customer feedback into clear product requirements and acceptance criteria
AI-code using tools like Cursor and Claude to ship fixes, improvements, and new capabilities directly into the product
Train internal sales and solutions teams on new features so they can confidently represent the product to customers
Key Requirements
Licensed attorney with meaningful law firm training (AmLaw 100 firm strongly preferred) plus some in-house experience
Top 50–100 law school pedigree; top undergrad or technical undergrad a plus
Deep substantive expertise in at least one area of law (e.g. fintech, corporate/commercial, privacy, compliance, employment — non-tech industry backgrounds especially welcome)
Genuine comfort using AI tools (Claude, Cursor, etc.) and a builder mentality — willingness to vibe-code and ship PRs within the first month
Strong project management and cross-functional communication skills; no job-hopping (tenure matters)
