Original job description
Our client, a global leader in legal AI technology, is looking for a Legal Architect with 3 to 6 years of experience to join their growing Enterprise team in Toronto. This is a lawyer turned subject matter expert role. You will partner with Account Executives to help top law firms and corporate legal teams adopt AI in their day-to-day legal work.
This is a newly created team that is expanding quickly, backed by a recent $500M funding round. It is a great opportunity for a lawyer who wants to step outside of private practice and bring their legal experience into the legal technology space. This is not a practising role, and no prior AI expertise is required. Full training on the platform is provided.
Duties include but are not limited to:
- Partnering with Account Executives in client meetings with partners and legal innovation leaders at top law firms and corporate legal departments
- Leading consultative discussions and tailored product demonstrations grounded in real legal workflows
- Building the business case for AI adoption across practice areas
- Designing high impact pilots, defining success measures and tracking outcomes
- Acting as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders and guiding adoption from pilot through full rollout
- Sharing customer insights with Product and Sales teams
- Collaborating with Marketing on content and client success stories
- Staying current on AI and legal technology trends
The successful candidate will have the following:
- JD or LLB with 3 to 6 years of legal experience (2 to 10 years considered)
- Experience at a leading national or international law firm, or in house at a technology company with 1,000+ employees
- Background in litigation, employment, M&A, banking and finance, or insurance
- Understanding of the Toronto law firm landscape and legal workflows
- Strong executive presence with excellent communication and presentation skills
- Ability to build trust and empathy with senior legal stakeholders
- A stable career history
- An interest in legal AI is an asset
- Location: Toronto, ON
- Hybrid: minimum 2 days per week in office (client site visits count as office days)
- Travel: approximately 10 to 15%
- Base salary: $93,000 to $173,000, plus variable compensation (OTE $133,000 to $247,000)
- Competitive equity and a comprehensive benefits package, including RRSP matching
