Welcome to Crosby, the next-generation law firm!

AI is changing the legal profession. We're a team of technologists and legal experts who want to think bigger than selling software to attorneys. Instead, we're working side-by-side to reimagine corporate legal services from the ground up, inventing a truly tech-enabled practice.

We build proprietary technology and human-in-the-loop workflows to enhance the lawyer-machine relationship. Our lawyers serve real clients and collaborate with our engineers to automate away their most repetitive work.

We want to review complex documents, for example, in ten minutes and with near-perfect quality. We want to give our clients delightful products that change the way they interface with lawyers. Our initial focus is corporate law, specifically around contract review.

We're backed by Sequoia, BCV, and the founders or GCs of Ramp, Lyft, Atrium, and Ironclad. We have a growing roster of Tier 1 clients, including Cursor, Clay, and Unify, some of the most exciting and fastest growing startups in the world. Our team is made up of of talent from Harvard, Stanford, UPenn, Columbia, Ramp, Meta, Cooley, Willkie Farr, Simpson Thacher, and Paul, Weiss.

We Believe:

• A great legal system is the watermark of a great society.
• Legal work is an art and science. We want to discover the frontier between the two and codify the scientific parts, which is a magnificent puzzle.
• Selling work, not software, is the best way to realize the productivity gains of GenAI for professional services.
• The great AI-for-professional-services startups should be built in NYC.

The Role

This role is for an attorney eager to be at the cutting edge of the AI legal era. You feel like things are broken and inefficient in law. In this role, you will fix them.

You will be a part of the legal function of our business -- what we imagine as becoming the best legal team, ever. A law firm that experiments with technology to ruthlessly eliminate grunt work and deliver tremendous value to clients.

You will provide (sometimes, old-fashioned) commercial legal services to our clients while using our AI tools. This means reviewing commercial contracts and devising ideas for our engineering team to improve these tools. You will come up with your own creative ways to use our AI in your legal work, and then we will productize it.

You will test the limits of generative AI with prompting, fine tuning, and data labeling. You will ensure all out clients' contracts get reviewed with excellent quality and unmatched speed.

We're looking for lawyers who equally love crisp writing and tinkering with ChatGPT late into the night. We're still small. We're prioritizing people who think big, love being part of a team, and thrive in fast-moving, high-agency environments.

What You'll Do

• Run commercial deals. Redline commercial contracts under tight deadlines for high-growth technology companies, turning drafts fast.
• Own client onboarding. Lead kickoff calls, capture each client's risk profile, and translate it into living playbooks and knowledge bases for the team, and our AI, to follow.
• Productize your expertise. Document reasoning in prompts, checklists, and datasets. Partner with engineers to convert your knowledge into product features that remove grunt work for everyone.
• Stress-test our AI stack. Design test sets, label edge cases, and push releases until the models outperform your own redlines.
• Scale the team. Coach and quality-control a team of lawyers and paralegals to perform near-perfect contract review faster than anyone thinks is possible.
• Drive adoption. Show clients--and our own lawyers--how to squeeze time and risk out of each review with our software and tools.

Who You Are

• 3-8 years in biglaw, or a few years in biglaw with some in-house experience. Top tech-transactions/IP practice preferred, but ECVC or general corporate can work. Strong familiarity with SaaS, data, and licensing deals is valuable.
• Client ready. Comfortable advising founders, GTM teams, product leads, and GCs; can unpack indemnities and data-use rights without jargon.
• Systems thinker. If you solve a problem twice, you codify it so no one has to repeat the work.
• AI-curious. Not necessarily technical, but speak the language of agents, embeddings, inference, reasoning models, and "Cursor for legal."
• Energized by a fast pace. You would thrive in-person in our NYC office and embrace intense work when you're excited by the challenge in front of you.
• Bonus: startup experience & experience building a team.

Why Work at Crosby?

• Competitive salary and equity compensation.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
• Unlimited PTO
• In-person team in NYC with a collaborative, high-energy environment
