  2. Active bar admission in at least one U.S. jurisdiction.
  3. Minimum of 2 years in the funds department of a corporate law firm.

  5. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with meticulous attention to detail.
  6. Strong analytical capabilities and ability to translate legal expertise into actionable feedback for AI systems.
  7. Demonstrated commitment to innovation at the intersection of law and technology.
  8. Experience working with cross-disciplinary teams in fast-paced environments.


Preferred Qualifications:
