About This Job

We're Avvoka
We build legal drafting technology for moments that matter - when the stakes are high, the documents are complex, and speed can't come at the cost of control.
Our platform helps legal teams move faster through contracts using automation, collaboration, and AI - without taking judgment away from the lawyers who own the risk. We believe technology should amplify expertise, not replace it.
Avvoka is trusted by leading law firms, banks, and global enterprises, and we've grown through product strength and word of mouth alone. With headcount and revenue increasing by over 70% year on year, we're scaling from a product-led success into a globally recognised legal-tech brand.
We're at an inflection point: evolving how the world's most sophisticated legal teams work - and building a company where thoughtful people can do the best work of their careers.

The role

You'll take the precedents that sit at the heart of global law firms and banks and turn them into intelligent, automated templates on Avvoka's no-code platform. This is drafting work for a lawyer, not ticket-taking: you'll work from briefings rather than specifications, and it's your legal judgment that decides how a document should flex.
In twelve months you'll have a portfolio of templates live with some of the most demanding legal teams in the world, and deep expertise in a practice area you've made your own.

What You'll Do

Build and automate

• Turn flat Word precedents used by law firms and in-house legal teams into fully automated Avvoka templates, applying conditional logic, variable fields, and structured workflows.
• Interpret briefings and instructions using your own legal judgment, rather than working from fully specified requirements.
• Work with Solutions Consultants and Account Executives to turn prospect precedents into bespoke templates, and build the stock templates we use in live client conversations.

Quality-assure and refine

• Test every template against complex conditional scenarios so documents generate cleanly, first time, under any combination of answers.
• Troubleshoot formatting, numbering, and logic errors, and structure templates so they stay scalable and easy to adapt as client needs change.

Advise and specialise

• Recommend how contracts should be restructured for automation, and implement data integrations and dynamic fields where they earn their place.
• Build deep expertise in a practice area, such as finance, real estate, corporate, insurance, employment, and become the person the team turns to on it.

What You'll Bring

• At least 2-3 years' experience as a qualified lawyer, ideally in a law firm or in-house legal setting, with hands-on drafting of commercial or transactional documents such as loan agreements, corporate housekeeping documents, engagement letters, purchase agreements, employment contracts, etc.
• Practice-area expertise developed from actual experience handling matters in finance, real estate, corporate, insurance, employment or similar.
• Strong logical thinking and a forensic eye for detail.
• Confident command of Microsoft Word styling, numbering, and formatting.
• Excellent communication skills to work with clients and with our Customer Success, Product, and Dev teams.
• A proactive, solution-focused mindset and real comfort with ambiguity.

Bonus Points If You Have

• Experience with contract lifecycle management (CLM) tools or low-code automation platforms.
• An understanding of conditional logic, data mapping, and API integrations.
• Basic scripting knowledge (JavaScript, Python, or SQL) for advanced automation.
