About Us

Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar.
Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes.
1,000+ customers across 50+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $100M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI and Graceview.
We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law.
Joining Legora means three things.

  • We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions.

  • We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback.

  • We grow together: as a team and with our customers.

Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts.

If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place.

What you'll do

This is a rare opportunity to sit at the intersection of law, technology, and product — and to do it at a company where that intersection actually matters. You'll gain hands-on experience in how AI is transforming legal work, while contributing directly to the development, testing, and adoption of our platform.

You'll work closely with our Legal Engineers, Customer Success, and Product teams from day one — not observing, but doing.

Specifically, you will
  • Support client-facing pilots, onboarding, and training — helping legal teams get real value out of Legora from the start.

  • Design and evaluate use cases that put our AI to work on real legal tasks: contract review, research, drafting, due diligence, and more.

  • Apply your legal experience to assess AI outputs — evaluating accuracy, commercial relevance, and usability with a practitioner's eye.

  • Capture user insights and translate them into clear, actionable feedback that directly shapes product development.

  • Document best practices and contribute to playbooks on how legal AI can be deployed effectively and scaled across firms.

What you bring

You're a newly qualified lawyer who's curious about where the profession is headed — and wants to be part of building it, not just watching it change. You bring rigour and legal instinct from your training, and you're ready to apply them somewhere that moves faster than a law firm.

We're looking for
  • A qualified solicitor who has completed a training contract (NQ - 0.5 PQE) and brings hands-on experience of legal workflows from a firm or in-house team.

  • A strong technical foundation in law — solid academic background and exposure to core practice areas such as corporate, commercial, finance, or litigation.

  • Genuine tech curiosity — not necessarily a coder, but someone who leans into legal technology, AI, and workflow automation, and is comfortable experimenting with new tools.

  • Commercial awareness — you understand how legal teams work under time pressure and client expectations, and can identify where AI meaningfully improves both.

  • A natural translator — able to move clearly and confidently between lawyers and technologists without losing the thread.

  • Analytical and detail-oriented — capable of critically evaluating AI outputs and identifying strengths, weaknesses, and risk areas with precision.

  • Proactive and adaptable — comfortable in a fast-moving environment, able to bring structure to ambiguity and take ownership without being directed.
