Serve as legal domain expert bridging clients and internal engineering to define negotiation playbooks, translate legal rules into prompts/specs, validate AI outputs, lead UAT, and guide integration of GenAI and CLM contract tools for complex commercial negotiation workflows.
This is an active pooling requirement for future opportunities. Passing the recruitment process does not guarantee placement and depends on future role availability.
Summary of Role
As Senior Legal Counsel, you are the strategic bridge between our clients' legal departments and our internal technical teams. You will act as the primary legal domain expert, ensuring AI-powered contract tools are perfectly calibrated to automate negotiation playbooks and complex redlining for top-tier global firms.
Your Impact & What You'll Do
- Define Legal Playbooks: Lead workshops with US-based legal teams to document their standard redlining positions, risk tolerance, and negotiation rules.
- Act as Domain Expert: Guide clients through the integration of GenAI legal technology, serving as a peer to their senior counsel.
- Translate Law to Logic: Convert nuanced legal requirements into clear, actionable inputs for developers to build precise AI prompts and models.
- Validate AI Accuracy: Perform expert-level quality reviews of the platform’s output to ensure it meets strict legal and commercial standards.
- Support UAT: Partner with clients during the User Acceptance Testing phase to refine tool performance based on real-world feedback.
Why You'll Thrive at Execo
- Qualified Lawyer: You are a licensed attorney with 7+ years of PQE in complex commercial contract negotiation (US/International experience preferred).
- Consultative Credibility: You can speak "lawyer-to-lawyer" with C-suite stakeholders, projecting the authority of a strategic partner.
- Tech Enthusiast: You have a genuine passion for legal tech and an aptitude for understanding how GenAI and CLM tools transform legal operations.
- High-Stakes Communication: You are a "master translator" who can simplify complex legal nuances for technical teams and vice versa.
- Global Flexibility: You are a detail-oriented professional comfortable working an independent, shifted schedule to collaborate with our US and global teams.
A Note on Global Collaboration
This role is built on a deep partnership with our US-based clients. To ensure seamless, real-time collaboration, you must be available for regular meetings (2-3 times per week) during their business hours.
This typically corresponds to very late evenings in Manila (approx. 10:30 PM - 1:30 AM PHT).
Our hybrid model offers significant flexibility outside of these core collaboration periods, but this commitment is essential for client success.
