From the original posting

Joining Legora means three things.

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

The Role

AI is reshaping how legal work gets done, and at Legora we're not just watching that happen. We're building it from the inside.

Our AI Enablement function exists to make sure every team at Legora can build, use, and govern AI well. The function is young, the mandate is broad, and right now it's one person. You'd be joining to own a significant slice of that work: managing engineers, translating business needs into action, and becoming the go-to for anything AI across the organization.

This is a high-ownership generalist seat for someone energized by ambiguity who would rather figure it out and ship than wait for a perfect brief.

 

What You'll Be Doing

We operate across three streams, and you'll own initiatives in all of them, from rough idea to shipped result.

Build

  • Coordinate agent and internal tool builds with engineers, keeping projects moving and translating between business needs and technical direction.

Enable

  • Run training, workshops, and documentation that help teams adopt AI.

  • Build and grow an AI champions program across the org.

  • Be the day-to-day support that makes enablement actually land.

Govern

  • Draft and operationalize guidelines, access policies, and usage guardrails.

  • Put the standards in place that let us move fast safely.

Across all three, you'll act as a connector, building the relationships and touchpoints that make the function visible and trusted.

 

Who You Are

  • A few years in a fast-moving environment: ops, strategy, product, consulting, program management, or similar. Shape matters more than title.

  • Genuinely AI-native, or clearly on the way: you reach for AI tools by default and want to go deeper.

  • True generalist: comfortable switching between strategy, delivery, and people work in the same day.

  • Exceptional learning speed: you get to depth on unfamiliar things fast and take feedback in quickly.

  • Strong communicator with a low-ego, collaborative style.

  • Someone who enjoys being in the office 5 days a week. A key component of Legora's success has been in-person collaboration and we want you to be part of that.

 

Nice To Have

  • Technical foundation: engineering degree (or equivalent), with enough coding exposure to hold your own with engineers.

  • Exposure to legal, GTM, or a regulated / high-trust environment.

  • Experience with agent platforms, workflow tools, or no/low-code AI.

  • A track record of starting something from scratch.

 

What Success Looks Like (The First 6 Months)

  • You're independently owning initiatives end-to-end across all three streams.

  • You've taken real ground on at least one initiative in each stream.

  • You're a go-to person for questions on AI Enablement at Legora.

 

What's In It For You

  • Global collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Stockholm, New York, London, and Sydney.

  • Competitive package: Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success.

  • In-person environment: Union Square office in New York, designed for ambitious builders, and company provided lunch daily.

  • Benefits & Perks: We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed benefits package:
    Medical, Dental & Vision

    • Multiple medical plan options via Aetna and Kaiser Permanente

    • HSA or Healthcare FSA (based on plan selection)

    • Dental plans via MetLife

    • Vision plans via Vision Care

    Family Support

    • Generous parental leave

    • Free access to Maven Clinic

    • Dependent Care FSA

    • Free One Medical membership for employees and dependents

    Additional Perks

    • Pre-tax commuter benefits

    • Life Insurance + STD/LTD

    • 401(K) with generous company match

    • Unlimited PTO

    • Robust voluntary benefits, including identity protection (via Aura), legal coverage via MetLife, pet savings programs, and more
