This role is ideal for a US-qualified attorney who is passionate about how legal technology can transform the practice of real estate law and who thrives in dynamic, evolving environments.

What You’ll Do

• Partner closely with Account Executives to drive the legal “win” during the sales process by aligning the platform’s solutions to real-world legal workflows.
