Immigration Attorney - Assessments & Marketing

About the role

We're looking for a creative and analytical immigration attorney to join our team. This role is the legal engine behind our sales motion, where you'll assess eligibility, advise on strategy in real time, decide which cases to take, and productize that expertise.

Responsibilities

• Eligibility Assessments & Sales Strategy (≈ 50%)
• Review daily visa assessments and deliver clear, criterion-by-criterion verdicts (viable / viable with disclaimers / not viable) with clear risks
• Think in pathways, not single visas — compare and sequence options across O-1A/B, EB-1A/B, EB-2 NIW, H-1B (including founder/beneficiary-owner H-1Bs), L-1, E-2, TN, and consular processing to find the best path for our clients
• Act as the team's real-time legal help desk: unblock AEs on live deals, answer eligibility questions quickly, and take prospect consultations (including paid second opinions) when needed
• Make go/no-go calls on case intake: spot red flags (status gaps, prior denials, undisclosed facts, employer or litigation issues) and use your judgement to make decisions
• Apply current law to live situations — track fast-moving USCIS trends and policy changes (e.g., recent founder-H-1B guidance, evolving RFE patterns) and translate them into actionable advice
• Productization, Content & Knowledge Base (≈ 35%)
• Mine assessment data for patterns — recurring weak criteria, intake gaps, requested-vs-recommended pathway mismatches — and turn them into guides, FAQs, lead magnets, decision tools, and thought-leadership
• Write and edit immigration guides, website copy, internal explainers, templates, and workflows that make complex topics intuitive and human; keep our existing knowledge base (evidence lists, sample docs, articles) accurate and current
• Publish rapid, lawyer-backed "news breakdowns" on regulatory changes, and review legal accuracy and tone on our blog
• Optionally: write scripts for educational/marketing videos (and appear in a few)
• Casework & Community (≈ 15%)
• Support the legal team on active casework and RFE responses at a reduced capacity, reporting to our Head of Legal
• Attend and present at in-person events — for immigrant founders, researchers, and mobility leaders

Requirements

• At least 4 years practicing employment-based immigration law
• Worked across a broad range of visa types (O-1A/B, EB-1A/B, H-1B, L-1, E-2, TN, PERM), with bonus points for cracking tricky O's and EB-1's and for hands-on RFE strategy
• Can quickly compare pathways and articulate a defensible strategy under time pressure
• Licensed to practice and hold a J.D. or LL.M. from an accredited institution
• Comfortable using AI tools and curious about how technology can scale legal work
• Think analytically and creatively — you can look at patterns across many cases, not just one file at a time
• Love distilling complex law into clear writing and persuasive storytelling
• Energetic and proactive, excited to shape how immigration knowledge is delivered at scale

Qualifications

• Not specified

Skills

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Experience with immigration law and familiarity with relevant regulations and policies
• Proficiency in using AI tools to streamline legal work

• Hyper-competitive base salary based on experience
• Performance-based incentives (equity / sales commission)
• 100% health coverage + vision + dental
• 20 days PTO + 10 federal holidays
• $250/month wellness allowance
• A front-row seat to startup growth, with mentorship from legal, tech, and business leaders
• Opportunities to shape internal systems, lead on strategy, and build something new
