Why Harvey

At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.

This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.

Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you.

At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.

Role Overview

As Harvey continues to scale its Legal Engineering function, we are hiring Legal Engineering Managers to lead and grow high-performing teams supporting our go-to-market efforts. This role sits at the intersection of legal expertise, customer engagement, and commercial strategy — helping prospective and existing customers understand how Harvey can transform the way legal work gets done.

Legal Engineering Managers lead teams of Legal Engineers who partner closely with Account Executives throughout the sales process, bringing legal credibility, product expertise, and consultative support to customer engagements. In addition to managing and developing the team, you will work directly with strategic customers, help shape Harvey’s go-to-market approach, and partner cross-functionally with Product, Marketing, Enablement, and Engineering to improve how Harvey serves the legal industry.

This role is both strategic and hands-on. We are looking for experienced legal professionals with a corporate legal background and in-house experience who are comfortable operating in fast-paced environments, navigating ambiguity, and solving complex problems with a high degree of ownership.

What You’ll Do
  • Lead, coach, and develop a high-performing team of Legal Engineers, setting a high bar for customer engagement, legal credibility, and commercial impact.

  • Partner closely with Sales leadership and Account Executives to support strategic accounts, develop deal strategy, and drive successful customer outcomes.

  • Oversee and support your team, as they engage in complex customer engagements by conducting discovery, leading product demonstrations, and advising customers on how Harvey can improve legal workflows across in-house legal teams.

  • Build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders, including General Counsel, Deputy General Counsel, Chief Legal Officers, legal operations leaders, and other legal and business leaders.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Applied Legal Research, Marketing, and Enablement to improve positioning, workflows, customer solutions, and go-to-market strategy.

  • Act as the voice of the customer by synthesizing frontline feedback and helping inform product roadmap decisions, feature development, and new use cases.

  • Help build and scale the Legal Engineering organization by improving processes, enablement materials, demo strategies, and team best practices.

  • Contribute to Harvey’s presence in the market through customer workshops, thought leadership, speaking engagements, and industry events.

What You Have
  • Qualified lawyer with 7+ PQE, including significant experience practicing corporate law, commercial contracting, mergers and acquisitions, private equity, emerging companies and venture capital, capital markets, or other corporate transactional work, or advising on corporate governance, including experience working in-house.

  • Must have prior experience managing a team, with a track record of developing talent and driving performance.

  • Deep familiarity with legal technology and AI tools, with the ability to quickly develop expertise in Harvey’s platform and workflows.

  • Strong understanding of the workflows, challenges, and priorities of in-house legal teams.

  • Strong commercial instincts and the ability to engage credibly with senior stakeholders across legal and business organizations.

  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, including experience leading trainings, workshops, demos, or customer-facing sessions.

  • Comfort operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment with a pragmatic and solutions-oriented mindset.

  • Strong point of view on the future of the legal industry and the impact of AI on legal services.
