What will you be doing?

  • Lead consultative discussions and tailored demos of Vincent AI grounded in real legal workflows

  • JD with a litigation, employment, M&A, finance, or insurance background (no bankruptcy or insolvency); legal engineers from AI-native firms like Harvey also considered
  • Executive presence, strong communication and presentation skills, and the ability to build empathy with senior legal stakeholders
