Job description

Role Overview

As Harvey scales its pre-sales function across APAC, we are hiring a Legal Engineer Manager to lead and grow the team in Singapore. This role exists to provide senior leadership and strategic direction to a team of Legal Engineers who sit at the heart of Harvey's commercial motion - bringing legal credibility, product expertise, and consultative support to law firm and in-house prospects.

Harvey’s Legal Engineers are skilled lawyers from top-tier law firms or in-house teams who apply their legal experience to ensure that current and prospective customers understand how Harvey’s solutions enhance specific day-to-day workflows, working alongside Harvey’s Account Executives to support all aspects of our sales strategy. Legal Engineers build consultative relationships with law firm partners and associates and in-house attorneys at private equity firms and STI companies, becoming trusted advisors on how Harvey’s AI solutions can make them more effective.

Similar to the way Solutions Architects secure the “technical win” in the sales process, Legal Engineers secure the “legal win” by performing in-depth customer discovery and education on Harvey’s solutions through targeted meetings and demos that resonate with the customer’s day-to-day workflows specific to their legal practice area.

Legal Engineers utilize their experience practicing law and their legal mindset to ask thoughtful questions to understand the needs of law firm and in-house attorneys, develop credibility, and then partner with Account Executives to educate them on Harvey’s value via large and small group sessions as well as one-to-one conversations.

What You’ll Do

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of Legal Engineers, setting clear performance expectations and building a high-trust, high-output team culture

• Own the quality and consistency of Harvey's pre-sales legal engineering function, ensuring demos, discovery conversations, and deal support are delivered to the highest standard

• Partner closely with Account Executives and GTM leadership to prioritise, develop deal strategy, and support conversion on complex or strategic opportunities

• Engage with lawyers at prospective customers to understand and address their workflow challenges

• Collaborate with Product and Marketing to ensure the team's field insights are feeding into positioning, roadmap, and go-to-market strategy

• Lead product demonstrations tailored to the context of various law firm practice groups and in-house legal teams, asking questions to validate how Harvey can add value and then showcasing Harvey’s features and benefits relevant to each prospective client’s potential use cases.

• Act as the “Voice of the Customer,” using your legal perspective to help the broader sales team to develop and implement more effective strategies and synthesize customer feedback for the product team through a legal lens.

• Travel may be required from time to time, including visits to customer office locations and company offices.

What You Have

• Qualified lawyer with 7+ PQE, with experience in a law firm or in-house legal environment

• Must have prior experience managing a team, with a track record of developing talent and driving performance

• Deep familiarity with legal technology and AI tools, with an ability to quickly develop and demonstrate platform expertise

• Strong commercial instincts and the ability to engage credibly with senior stakeholders at law firms and in-house legal teams

• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with experience running training, workshops, or client-facing product sessions

• Comfort operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment with a pragmatic, solutions-oriented approach
