Legal Expert - Assessment Specialist

Role Overview

We are seeking legal experts to author and review high-quality academic assessment content for an AI research initiative. You will write and verify rigorous multiple-choice questions across core law domains, evaluate solution quality, and help establish gold-standard benchmarks used to advance AI capabilities.

You will be assigned one of two task types:

• Question Authoring — Create original, challenging multiple-choice questions in your area of legal expertise, rate their difficulty, and submit them for review.

• Question Verification — Review pre-written questions for accuracy, clarity, and rigor. Edit where needed, rate difficulty, and document any changes made.

Intellectual Property, Privacy, and Technology, Regulatory and Government Affairs, Securities, Capital Markets, Financial Regulation & Compliance, Private Equity, M&A & Transaction Structuring, Antitrust, Merger Control & Competition, Healthcare, Life Sciences, & Pharmaceuticals, Environmental, Energy, & ESG/Climate.

• Author original law questions that test deep conceptual understanding, not surface-level recall

• Ensure questions are unambiguous, self-contained, and precisely defined — all necessary information must be in the problem statement

• Rate each question's difficulty:
  Medium (intro undergraduate), Hard (advanced undergraduate), or Expert (post-graduate and above)

• Provide 1 correct answer and 9 plausible but subtly incorrect alternatives that challenge expert-level solvers

• Write step-by-step Chain-of-Thought solutions with clear, concise reasoning in markdown format

• Supply 1–5 academic references per question from reputable sources (peer-reviewed journals, legal repositories)

• For verification tasks: flag issues with clarity, completeness, precision, or solvability and justify any edits made

• JD, LLM, SJD, or doctoral candidate in Law or a closely related field

• Master's degree considered for candidates with exceptional depth in a specific subdomain

• Strong command of legal reasoning, statutory interpretation, and jurisprudential theory

• Experience with bar exam writing, legal academia, or judicial clerkships is a strong plus

• Excellent written English and ability to express complex legal ideas clearly and concisely

• Expected commitment: 10+ hours/week

• Asynchronous, fully remote work
