• You’re passionate about applying AI to transform knowledge work, particularly in the legal industry.

• You have direct experience in legal practice (e.g. law firm, in-house, or legal consultancy) and understand how lawyers actually work.

• You thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic startup environment where priorities shift and ambiguity is the norm.

• You communicate clearly and confidently across technical and non-technical teams, engaging stakeholders at all levels.

• You’re a native Dutch speaker or have C-level proficiency in Dutch.

Bonus Points

• Experience working directly with clients on implementation, requirements, or technical support.

What we offer

• A unique opportunity to work at a startup that is shaping the future of legal tech.

• The ability to make a direct and tangible impact on the development and growth of our platform.

• An inspiring place to work in an office located at the heart of Rotterdam.
