Job description

Understand legal problems. Think in product. Build with AI. (Deep coding isn't required)

A seed-stage AI startup is hiring a Legal Engineer to turn complex legal needs into practical workflows for startup customers.

This role combines product ownership, customer discovery, and AI tooling. You’ll work directly with customers, lawyers, and engineers and own the result.

What you’ll own:

• Lead customer onboarding and customize AI-powered legal workflows.
• Translate customer and legal-team needs into clear product requirements.
• Own delivery, testing, and output quality from start to finish.

Who should take a look:

• A lawyer who has moved toward product, or a product manager with legal-AI experience.
• Someone with startup legal exposure; a JD is strongly preferred.
• An AI-fluent systems thinker who builds repeatable solutions and takes ownership without a detailed playbook.

You should be comfortable discussing technical requirements with engineers. Deep production coding isn't the focus.
