About the Role
As a Legal Operations Specialist in Legora’s New York office, you will play a central role in building and scaling the operational infrastructure of one of the fastest-growing legal technology companies globally. You will work at the intersection of legal, technology, and operations — owning the systems, workflows, and knowledge architecture that enable Legora's legal function and broader organization to operate at scale. A core part of this role is building internal knowledge databases and driving integrations that unlock the full value of Legora's own platform within our organization.
This role requires a high degree of independence, strong systems thinking, and the ability to drive cross-functional change across multiple teams and time zones. You will partner closely with Legal, People, Finance, RevOps, Product, and Customer Success, becoming an integral part of how Legora operationalizes its legal and commercial knowledge. You will report to the General Counsel, based at our Stockholm headquarters.
Legora’s legal function is a forward-deployed, AI-first team working across multiple jurisdictions and legal disciplines. We act as trusted partners to the business, with particular focus on product development, operations, and commercial initiatives. As a legal technology company, we hold ourselves to the highest standard when it comes to our own legal operations — and we expect this role to help us lead by example. Beyond strong operational judgment, we value curiosity, problem-solving, and a proactive mindset.
What You’ll Do
- Own the design and build-out of Legora's internal legal knowledge databases, ensuring that contracts, policies, playbooks, and institutional knowledge are structured, searchable, and organized.
- Drive integrations between Legora's own platform and internal systems (CLM, CRM, HRIS, finance tools) to maximize the value Legora derives from its own product and ensure seamless data flows across the organisation.
- Establish and maintain structured contract management infrastructure — including metadata schemas, parent-child contract linking, deduplication standards, and a deviation/exception registry for non-standard terms.
- Design and implement cross-functional handoff protocols so that relevant contract terms, exceptions, and commitments automatically surface to Finance, RevOps, Product, and Customer Success at the point of execution.
- Partner with the Legal, People, and Operations teams to identify process bottlenecks, drive continuous improvement, and ensure legal operations practices reflect Legora's standards and values.
- Contribute to governance, compliance, and risk mitigation initiatives, ensuring that operational infrastructure supports Legora's obligations as it scales internationally.
What You Bring
- 2-5 years of experience in legal operations, contract management, or a related operational role within a law firm or in-house legal team.
- Deep, granular understanding of technology stacks, APIs, data architecture, and system interoperability. Hands-on experience implementing, configuring, or building legal technology tools, knowledge management systems, or integration layers is essential.
- Demonstrable experience in legal operations, legal technology, or a related technical-operational field. A relevant degree (e.g., law, computer science, engineering, or information systems) is meritorious but not required. Prior experience in knowledge management teams or in supporting legal professionals is particularly valued.
- Demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional change and influence senior stakeholders across Legal, Finance, Product, and Operations.
- Experience in high-growth, international, or technology-driven organizations is highly valued.
- You are operationally minded and solutions-oriented — you focus on building infrastructure that enables the business while appropriately managing risk.
- You communicate complex operational and legal concepts clearly and translate them into structured, actionable processes.
- You thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic, entrepreneurial environment and are comfortable operating with autonomy and ambiguity.
- A deep technical and genuine excitement about building with technology is meritorious. You are likely not content to be a consumer of tools — you want to get under the hood, write code where needed, and architect systems that push the boundaries of what a best-in-class legal operations function looks like. A keen interest in AI, data infrastructure, and Legora's own platform is essential.
