This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Legal Operations Lead in United States.

This role sits at the intersection of legal practice and modern operations, combining hands-on legal work with advanced legal technology and automation. The position is designed for a builder who thrives in fast-moving, high-autonomy environments and enjoys transforming manual legal processes into scalable, tech-enabled systems. You will play a central role in shaping how legal work is executed across the organization, with a strong focus on efficiency, AI adoption, and workflow design. The scope spans contract lifecycle management, automation architecture, and substantive legal support across a variety of commercial and compliance matters. You will collaborate closely with senior legal leadership while also working cross-functionally with finance, compliance, and operations teams. This is a high-impact role where your work directly improves speed, accuracy, and visibility across the legal function. The environment is highly collaborative, experimental, and focused on continuous improvement.

Accountabilities:

This role is responsible for owning and evolving the legal operations infrastructure while also providing substantive legal support across core business needs. You will design, implement, and continuously improve legal workflows, tools, and systems to increase efficiency and scalability.

Lead the design, configuration, and optimization of the contract lifecycle management platform, including workflow automation and reporting capabilities
Build and maintain automated legal processes using modern tooling such as no-code and low-code platforms to reduce manual work and improve speed
Evaluate and implement AI-driven legal technologies while ensuring appropriate oversight, governance, and auditability of outputs

Create dashboards and reporting tools to provide visibility into contract status, cycle times, and legal operations metrics
Draft, review, and redline commercial agreements including NDAs, vendor contracts, and partnership agreements
Support corporate governance activities, compliance processes, and KYC or KYB workflows
Partner cross-functionally to translate legal requirements into scalable, user-friendly operational processes

Requirements:

This position requires a strong blend of legal expertise, operational mindset, and technical fluency. You should be comfortable working independently in ambiguous environments while maintaining strong attention to detail and analytical rigor.

3 to 7 years of experience in legal operations, paralegal work, or a combination of both, with demonstrated impact in process improvement or automation
Hands-on experience with contract lifecycle management systems, ideally including configuration and workflow design rather than only usage
Experience with automation tools such as Zapier, Make, or similar platforms, with a strong interest in building scalable systems
Solid understanding of commercial contract structures, including key clauses such as liability, indemnification, termination, and representations
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to structure ambiguous legal or operational challenges
Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate across legal, technical, and business teams
Comfort working with AI tools in a professional setting and applying them responsibly to legal workflows
High level of autonomy, organization, and ability to manage multiple concurrent initiatives in a fast-paced environment

Benefits:

Competitive compensation aligned with experience
Remote work environment with flexibility
Opportunity to work at the intersection of legal operations, AI, and cutting-edge technology
High-impact role with direct exposure to senior legal leadership
Collaborative and fast-moving environment focused on innovation and continuous improvement
Opportunity to help define and scale modern legal infrastructure and tooling
