Join us at Laine, where we’re on a mission to make expert-quality legal work accessible to every law firm and legal team. Laine is legal software built by attorneys — decades of legal methodology, built into the product — so lawyers produce partner-level drafting, review, and analysis without changing the way they work.

Legal AI will be one of the defining categories of this decade, and the companies that win it are being decided right now. We launched in Switzerland in 2026, and we’re now building our U.S. business from Austin. You’d be joining the commercial team at the heart of that expansion — early enough that your work shapes how we grow, who we reach, and how we win.

If you push for excellence and want to help build something genuinely new in legal technology, we invite you to build with us. At Laine, the future of legal work is being written today — and we’re just getting started.

As Legal Engineer at Laine, you will be the practicing lawyer inside our go-to-market team — the person in the room who has lived the work our clients live every day. Laine was built by lawyers encoding decades of methodology into software, and this role carries that credibility into every client conversation in the U.S. market. Make no mistake: this is a revenue role with an acquisition mandate — you are part of the sales process, and your success is measured in the firms that choose Laine and adopt it deeply.

You will sit alongside sales in demos and pilots, guide new firms through onboarding, support client success on the legal substance of adoption, and translate what you hear from attorneys into concrete product direction. When a skeptical partner asks whether Laine truly understands their practice, you are the answer.

• Lead the legal substance of client onboarding: configuring playbooks around a firm’s standards, mapping Laine to their practice areas, and showing attorneys how their methodology lives inside the product
• Support client success post-acquisition, helping firms deepen adoption across document types, practice groups, and workflows
• Stress-test the product the way a practicing lawyer would — drafting, reviewing, and negotiating real matters — and turn what you find into concrete recommendations for the product team
• Translate client feedback into product evolution, working directly with engineering and the lawyer team on what U.S. practice demands
• Help legal professionals navigate what AI means for their practice with the empathy of someone who has done the work at 10 PM themselves
• Contribute legal insight to marketing, enablement, and sales training, so the entire commercial team sounds like the industry rather than a vendor
• Help define the Legal…
