Community & Partnerships Lead

At August
, we’re building AI designed for one thing: helping law firms practice better. Unlike tools built for the AmLaw 100, our focus is on midsized firms — where efficiency, client service, and competitive advantage matter most.

Our platform helps lawyers draft, review, and analyze documents at scale, turning what used to take hours into minutes. We’re trusted by forward‑thinking firms across the U.S., Australia, and Asia, and backed by leading investors (NEA, Pear VC, Stanford Law) to grow globally.

We move quickly, learn directly from clients, and believe that AI is transforming the practice of law.

Build and lead August’s presence across the tech and AI ecosystem. You’ll design and host events—dinners, conferences, panels—that bring together lawyers interested in technology, engineers, product leaders, and AI enthusiasts who care about the future of professional services.

This is proactive, strategic, and outbound‑driven. You’ll identify who matters across the broader tech and AI world—not just legal tech—and turn those relationships into high‑value gatherings that position August as a leader in applied AI.

You’ll own the entire event lifecycle and serve as August’s connector to the broader tech and AI ecosystem—building relationships with press, analysts, and industry leaders that amplify our brand.
