In an era where AI reshapes industries, experienced attorneys specializing in contract review and redlining have a unique chance to transform their careers, with us at the forefront of this evolution. Join us as a Legal Engineer—no engineering degree necessary—and become part of a pioneering team at the intersection of law and cutting-edge technology. As a DocJuris Legal Engineer, you'll be at the forefront of transforming legal processes for the world's biggest brands. You'll research redlines and templates, guide clients, and create detailed negotiation playbooks via DocJuris' AI-driven contract review platform. Although you won't provide legal advice, you'll be a crucial advocate and consultant for our clients.

What We're Looking For

• Education: JD from an accredited law school and Bar Admission in at least one US State
• Experience: must have at least 3-5 years of experience reviewing and redlining complex commercial/enterprise contracts
• Ability to speak to a personal track record of successfully negotiating, reviewing, and/or redlining ~200 contracts throughout your professional journey
• Proficiency in legal clauses pertinent to commercial and procurement contracts (e.g., can identify and articulate the significance and application of complex clauses such as indemnification, IP, limitation of liability, force majeure, and dispute resolution mechanisms)

• Client-centric Skills: ability to competently discuss redlines and negotiation positions with clients like general counsel, procurement, and supply chain teams and handle 2-4 client meetings per day
• Self-starter and Independent: the work is 75% playbook building and 25% meeting with clients and organizing with your team; as a result, a self-starter and independent attitude is critical, as you'll often have to find answers on your own
