Legora The Legal Engineer at Legora owns the enablement strategy for the North American Legal Engineering team, building knowledge systems and programs to scale performance. This role involves defining vision, diagnosing bottlenecks, and creating a living library of playbooks and workflow templates.

Responsibilities

Own the Enablement Strategy for our North America Legal Engineer Team
Define the vision, roadmap, and success metrics for Legal Engineering enablement across onboarding, ramp, and ongoing development.
Diagnose where Legal Engineers are slowed down, whether that is product depth, legal workflow fluency, or customer-facing skills, and prioritize programs against the metrics that matter: ramp time, customer adoption, workflow quality, and deal support.
Capture and Scale What Our Best Legal Engineers Know
Build the knowledge management backbone for the team: a living library of playbooks, workflow templates, use-case guides, discovery and demo frameworks, and customer-ready examples, organized so people can find and trust what they need in the moment.
Set up the processes for capturing expertise from top performers and from customer engagements, curating it, keeping it current, and retiring what is stale.
Establish taxonomy, ownership, and governance for team knowledge, including how it is tagged by practice area, customer segment, and sales stage.
Build Programs That Make Legal Engineers Excellent
Design and run onboarding and certification programs covering product mastery, legal practice and workflow fluency, discovery, solution design, and presenting to lawyers and law firm leadership.
Create coaching, peer-learning, and practice-group deep-dive formats that put real legal work at the center of how the team learns.
Translate how law firms think about training, precedent, and adoption into how we enable our own team and, through them, our customers.
