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, and productize expertise.

Responsibilities

  • Assess eligibility, advise on strategy in real time, decide which cases to take, and productize expertise so the standard work scales.

  • 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 various visa types.

  • Unblock AEs on live deals, answer eligibility questions quickly, and take prospect consultations (including paid second opinions).

  • Make go/no-go calls on case intake: spot red flags and use your judgement to make decisions.

  • Apply current law to live situations — track fast-moving USCIS trends and policy changes and translate them into actionable advice.

  • Partner with product, GTM and operations to standardize and "productize" the assessment process.

  • Mine assessment data for patterns 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.

  • 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).

  • 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.

  • Loves distilling complex law into clear writing and persuasive storytelling.

  • Energetic and proactive, excited to shape how immigration knowledge is delivered at scale.

Qualifications

  • You're not hoping for a traditional firm role centered on day-to-day filings and managing cases and client relationships.

  • You prefer staying strictly within legal service delivery rather than engaging with sales, marketing, product, and operations.

  • You're uneasy working alongside AI tooling or with a role that evolves as we scale.

  • You need a fully defined environment and a lot of structure — this attorney will help define what "great" looks like at the intersection of law, communication, and technology.

Skills

  • Strong analytical and creative problem-solving skills.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Experience with immigration law and familiarity with relevant visa types.

  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple tasks simultaneously.

  • Comfortable working with AI tools and technology.

Benefits

  • 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.
