Real estate is the world’s largest asset class, yet the legal processes and tools behind it remain slow, manual, and underinvested. Lawyers still review dense documents line by line and piece together information across silos — all while clients demand faster, more transparent due diligence.

That’s where this company comes in. They’ve built an AI assistant designed exclusively for commercial real estate law. Developed alongside former practicing real estate lawyers, the platform accelerates complex due diligence by up to 70% while delivering legal-grade precision.

The company recently raised a $60m Series B to accelerate UK/US expansion. The platform is trusted by leading Am Law firms to remove the busywork so legal teams can focus on applying sharp legal judgment, delivering standout client service, and getting deals over the line faster.

Joining the team means becoming part of a company that is reimagining how real estate transactions get done — moving quickly, working collaboratively, and giving people ownership to make a real impact from day one.

Role Overview

As a Legal Solutions Architect, you will partner with leading Am Law 200 firms and in-house legal teams to unlock the value of real-estate-specific AI in their practices.

In this client-facing role on the go-to-market team, you will serve as a trusted advisor to partners and innovation leaders — guiding successful pilots, coaching legal teams through change, and driving long-term adoption of the platform.

You will collaborate closely with Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and Product to deliver strategic insights, enable customers, and provide thought leadership across the customer lifecycle.

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.
• Engage with attorneys at law firms, title agencies, and real estate companies to uncover pain points and identify high-impact AI use cases.
• Facilitate tailored product demonstrations, discovery sessions, and pilot programs aligned to specific legal teams and practice groups.
• Coach attorneys and legal staff through workflow change, adapting your approach to different roles, seniority levels, and firm cultures.
• Build consultative, trust-based relationships with key legal stakeholders using your real estate subject-matter expertise.
• Translate customer feedback into actionable insights for Product, Sales, and Marketing — acting as the legal “Voice of the Customer.”
• Contribute to go-to-market efforts by developing practice-area-specific content that resonates with lawyers.
• Collaborate with engineers and data scientists to provide feedback on product performance.
• Conduct market research and competitor analysis to inform positioning and sales strategy.
• Reinforce market presence through thought leadership, CLEs, publications, and industry events.

You Should Apply If

• You are a US-qualified attorney (JD + active or eligible bar) with 4–8+ years of experience in commercial real estate law.
• You have deep experience in acquisitions, dispositions, due diligence, land use, construction, and/or real estate finance.
• You understand legal workflows end-to-end, from paralegals to partners.
• You enjoy being client-facing and advising senior stakeholders.

Nice to Have

• Experience with legal software or LegalTech tools.
• Experience running deals and briefing partners or senior stakeholders.

• Experience working alongside sales or revenue teams.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary + commission ($140,000–$190,000 base range, with OTE of $175,000–$237,500)
• 401(k) match and equity options
• 20 days paid holiday + additional personal days
• Professional equipment and personal development budget
