We're looking for an experienced commercial attorney to embed directly within our Product organization as an Innovation Lawyer. This is a unique role at the intersection of law, AI, and product development — you'll serve as the in-house legal expert who helps our product managers, designers, and engineers build, test, and continuously improve the contract review and analytics capabilities at the core of our AI platform.
You won't just advise from the sidelines. You'll be hands-on: reviewing AI outputs, surfacing edge cases, shaping how we evaluate legal quality, and helping translate what "good" looks like in the real world of contracts into something our teams can build toward. You'll also play a key role in helping our customers succeed, leading training sessions and best-practice programs that give them the knowledge to get the most out of our tools.
If you're a lawyer who is energized by technology, curious about how AI is reshaping legal work, and eager to shape a product used by legal and contract teams around the world, this role was built for you
Job Responsibilities
- Partner closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to evaluate and improve the legal accuracy, relevance, and quality of Agiloft's contract review and analytics features
- Test AI-generated outputs against real-world legal standards, identifying gaps, failure modes, and opportunities for improvement
- Develop and refine prompts, evaluation frameworks, and quality benchmarks that help the team measure and raise the bar on legal AI performance
- Translate legal domain knowledge into clear, actionable requirements that non-lawyer teammates can understand and act on
- Serve as an internal subject-matter expert on contract law, CLM workflows, and how legal and procurement teams actually work
- Design and lead customer-facing training programs - webinars, workshops and best practice guides that help users unlock and get the full value from the platform
- Partner with internal and external senior stakeholders as the legal subject matter expert, translating complex concepts and product capabilities into measurable client outcomes
- Stay current on developments in AI-assisted legal work and bring outside perspective and competitive insight back to the team
- Leverage AI-assisted tools to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and support day-to-day activities
- Other duties as assigned
