Why Harvey

At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate — not incrementally, but end-to-end. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.

This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1000+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.

Our team is sharp, motivated, and deeply committed to the mission. We move fast, operate with intensity, and take real ownership of the problems we tackle — from early thinking to long-term outcomes. We stay close to our customers — from leadership to engineers — and work together to solve real problems with urgency and care. If you thrive in ambiguity, push for excellence, and want to help shape the future of work alongside others who raise the bar, we invite you to build with us.

At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.

Role Overview

We are looking for a lawyer to join our legal team to expand our commercial function. You will interface with our go-to-market, business and cross-functional teams (including Engineering, Product and Security) to help ensure the fast, efficient execution of our agreements with customers.

What You'll Do

Generative AI has the power to greatly change the world and directly impact how things get done. Harvey is at the forefront of this change, and our mission is to make generative AI actionable and useful for our customers. This is a fast moving environment (we are a start-up!) that is serving some of the world’s most renowned law firms and professional organizations. And this role will put you in the center of all of this.

More specifically, you will:

  • Draft, review, and negotiate commercial AI SaaS contracts and other technology and AI-related agreements

  • Provide regulatory and product counsel as needed

  • Provide training and develop resources in support of our sales and other cross-functional teams

We are a small, but growing company, and one of the best things about working in such an environment is that there is lots of opportunity to pick up other aspects of the legal work that supports our company. While the principal job will be as described above, for lawyers interested in learning more about product counseling and IP law, there will be ample opportunities to broaden your wheelhouse here at Harvey!

This role is based in New York, NY or San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week, with a remote option available for candidates outside of these locations.

What You Have
  • A law degree from an accredited law school

  • Admitted to practice law and in good standing in at least one jurisdiction and able to practice in California or New York

  • 3+ years of law firm and/or in-house experience

  • Transactional background, including with SaaS, technology, and/or IP licensing and commercial agreements, and/or M&A transactions

  • Ability to think creatively, function independently and work proactively in a fast-paced environment

  • Team-focused and collaborative work style; willingness to build expertise and solve new challenges in an evolving practice

  • Hyper-responsive and service-oriented attitude

  • Ninja-like project management skills

  • Bonus qualifications include experience with AI, supporting Go-To-Market/ Sales, and a love for solving hard problems with a small tight-knit team.

Compensation Range

$180,000 to $220,000 USD
