Job description

This isn't a typical immigration law role.

You won't be buried in paperwork at a back-office boutique firm. You'll be at the intersection of law, technology, and global ambition — helping the world's most talented founders, engineers, and executives navigate the US immigration system faster and smarter than ever before.

About Concord Visa

Concord Visa is redefining what immigration counsel looks like in the age of AI. Born out of Crimson Education — the globally renowned leader in education and career mobility — we're a fast-moving, technology-first legal services company purpose-built for high-growth tech companies and exceptional global talent.

Our Clients Aren't Just Anyone. They're Y Combinator Founders Chasing The American Dream From Day One, Engineers Joining AI-native Ventures, And Executives Scaling Some Of The World's Most Innovative Companies.

• Y Combinator alumni and early-stage founders securing their first US foothold
• Zuru — one of the world's fastest-growing consumer goods companies
• Andreessen Horowitz and their portfolio companies scaling global teams
• Crimson Education — operating across 30+ countries with a truly international workforce

Our team reflects the global nature of our mission — immigration professionals and seasoned operators from the US, Australia, the UK, New Zealand, and beyond. We know what it means to navigate borders because many of us have done it ourselves.

The Role

As an Immigration Attorney at Concord, you'll manage complex, high-stakes immigration cases for founders, executives, and tech talent — while partnering directly with our engineering and product teams to make our AI-powered platform smarter.

This is a rare hybrid role: part practitioner, part innovator. You'll bring deep immigration expertise to every case, and channel what you learn into tools that transform how immigration law is practiced at scale. Direct access to the CEO. Real influence on product and strategy. The scope grows as Concord grows.

What You'll Do

Client & Case Work

• Provide strategic, accurate legal counsel on H-1B, L-1, E-2, E-3, O-1, EB-1A/B, and PERM processes
• Serve as a trusted advisor to clients from first-time founders securing their first visa to enterprise HR teams managing large immigration programs
• Guide clients through documentation, timelines, filing strategy, and USCIS/DOL processes with clarity and confidence
• Manage a varied, stimulating caseload independently — with the precision every client deserves

Product & Technology

• Partner with Concord's engineering and product teams to embed legal knowledge directly into our proprietary platform
• Identify friction points in the immigration process and co-design features that eliminate them
• Shape the product roadmap with direct input on how legal workflows can be automated and scaled
• Stay ahead of regulatory changes and ensure the platform reflects the latest in immigration law

Thought Leadership & Growth

• Represent Concord in client-facing presentations, webinars, and industry discussions
• Contribute to guides and resources that educate clients and establish Concord's voice in the market
• Help build our team and culture — this is a foundational role, not a seat-filler

Who We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

• JD from an ABA-accredited law school
• Active Arizona bar license OR eligible for Arizona Admission on Motion (UBE passers and attorneys with 3+ years active practice in a reciprocal jurisdiction can apply without re-sitting the bar — we'll support you through this process)
• 2–5 years of substantive US business immigration experience (H-1B, L-1, E-2, O-1, EB-1, PERM, etc.)
• Demonstrated ability to manage complex, multi-track caseloads with accuracy and autonomy
• Genuine curiosity about legal technology and how immigration law will evolve
• Exceptional communication skills — equally comfortable explaining strategy to a nervous first‑time founder as to a seasoned HR director

You’ll Thrive Here If You…

• Are energized by fast-paced, high-growth environments where your work directly shapes outcomes
• Want more than a billable-hour career — you want to build something
• See AI as an opportunity to do better legal work, not a threat to it
• Are comfortable with some ambiguity and excited to help define the playbook
• Are willing to travel occasionally, domestically and internationally, as Concord expands
