You'll own several accounts, building trusted relationships with general counsel and senior legal executives and serving as their primary point of contact. By analyzing their litigation portfolios and diagnosing operational challenges, you'll identify opportunities for AI-driven automation and build compelling business cases. You'll work cross-functionally with product, engineering, and commercial teams, you'll have high visibility with company leadership and the senior legal executives of major clients.

## Responsibilities

- Serve as the company's U.S. litigation subject matter expert, leading meetings with prospective and existing clients to understand their litigation dockets and develop tailored solutions
- Apply your litigation expertise to translate complex legal requirements and client-specific litigation scenarios into tailored solution, defining use cases, workflow requirements, and measurable outcomes
- Build and nurture trusted relationships with legal decision-makers, developing a deep understanding of their litigation dockets, operational challenges, and priorities
- Lead proof-of-concepts engagements tailored to each client’s litigation workflows, establishing success criteria and building business cases around efficiency, cost, and scalability
