Crosby The Commercial Counsel at Crosby reviews and negotiates commercial contracts using AI tools to enhance legal work quality and speed. The role involves collaborating with legal team members, standardizing contract playbooks, and partnering with engineering and operations to evolve legal service delivery.

Responsibilities

Sit at the center of modern deal-making. You’ll review and negotiate the commercial contracts that get deals to signature for companies like Cursor, Ramp, and Cognition.
Direct AI, don’t babysit it. You’ll orchestrate Crosby’s tooling over a contract and spend your judgment where it counts.
Own outcomes end-to-end and chase the small touches that turn a closed deal into one a client can’t help but tell others about at dinner.
This is a high-impact role for a lawyer excited to apply AI to their own practice, obsessive about quality execution, and drawn to leverage over billable hours.
Review and negotiate commercial contracts with speed and precision, catching the obligations, risks, and off-market terms that matter.
Collaborate with other Crosby legal team members to interpret contract terms and surface the anomalies and edge cases that need an expert’s read.
Spot inefficiencies and recurring patterns in how contracts get reviewed, and turn them into improvements that sharpen how the whole team works.
Help standardize and codify recurring contract types and playbooks so the team’s judgment compounds instead of resetting on every deal.
Partner with engineering and operations to evolve our legal service delivery model.
