Applied Legal Researcher at Harvey

The ideal candidate is a lawyer with three to seven years of experience at a major law firm or financial institution who understands the grueling nuances of complex professional workflows. You should have a JD and be comfortable with technical ambiguity, as you will be bridging the gap between high-level legal strategy and AI model training. **What makes it worth a look...** The compensation is high for a non-practicing role, and the position offers rare influence over how frontier AI agents are built for the entire legal industry. While the work involves significant manual tasks like grading model outputs, you are at the ground floor of a heavily backed startup with massive product-market fit. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have a JD and several years of experience as a junior or mid-level associate. * Are willing to do the "trench work" of grading hundreds of AI answers and labeling documents. * Want to pivot from billable hours to prompt engineering and building model benchmarks. * Live in or can relocate to San Francisco for full-time on-site work.
