Legal Engineer, litigation background

Description

We need a litigation subject-matter owner who can translate how dispute practices work into product requirements, review behavior, and customer-facing language with zero looseness about risk.

What you will do

• Extract from real litigation motion practice, discovery habits, and case strategy a precise description of what software should and should not claim to do for litigators, including around civil procedure edge cases and how outputs are framed.
• Work in pilots and production with law firm and in-house users to test whether the product’s behavior matches those requirements; file crisp bugs and change requests, not “make it better.”
• Be the in-house reference for the rest of the company on litigation when product, support, or sales are stuck; say “no” when a ship date would break trust with lawyers.
• Join internal and external training or review sessions as the litigation voice when the calendar requires it.

Required

• Several years in complex litigation, firm or in-house, with a record that shows you actually ran pieces of cases, not only supported them from the margins.
• Ability to communicate across legal, product, and business audiences, including naming tradeoffs and defensible cuts.
• Interest in a role that stays close to disputes and procedure without a billable-year-only path.

Compensation

The compensation structure and equity are for finalists, not a public number here.
