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.

2,100+ customers across 80+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $200M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI, Graceview, Cadastral, and Wexler.

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.

Legal Engineer (In-House)

We are seeking a Legal Engineer with a strong in-house background to help corporate legal teams transform how they deliver legal work. Your experience inside a corporate legal function (ideally 4+ years PQE, with a grounding in a top law firm) will allow you to:

  • Act as a trusted advisor for in-house legal teams, identifying pain points and uncovering high-value opportunities for process innovation across the full legal workflow, from contract review and commercial negotiation to regulatory compliance, matter management and internal knowledge sharing.

  • Collaborate with General Counsel, legal ops and in-house lawyers to design and implement tailored solutions on the Legora platform, addressing unique challenges like high contract volumes, business stakeholder demands, limited resources and tight commercial deadlines.

  • Share critical insights from your in-house experience to directly shape product development, technical enhancements and future roadmap priorities, ensuring our offerings meet the real-world needs of corporate legal departments.

  • Deliver engaging product demos and training sessions, showing how technology can streamline everything from drafting and playbook-based review to risk assessment and reporting to the business.

  • Drive change management by helping legal teams understand the ROI and competitive edge that advanced technologies and AI bring to in-house legal, including improvements in efficiency, accuracy, cost control and strategic decision-making.

About you

  • 4+ years PQE, with a strong in-house background within a corporate

  • Ideally trained or practised at a top law firm

  • A passion for leveraging technology to transform legal services
