We are looking for Partner & General Counsel - Legal Domain Expert candidates for a project delivered through Mercor.
What you'll do
- Vet the quality of legal knowledge work tasks and model outputs — spotting missing behaviors, thin reasoning, and answers that read well but would not survive professional scrutiny.
- Write high-quality instruction specs, produce golden solutions to legal problems, and define new legal tasks that reflect how the work is actually done in practice.
- Design challenging legal tasks and evaluation sets, and help build legal-specific skills and tools together with the research team.
- Work with client researchers and specialists in adjacent fields to keep standards consistent, translating tacit legal judgment into explicit, teachable criteria.
What you need
- Active admission to at least one U.S. state bar, in good standing.
- Genuine specialization in at least one substantive practice area, for example corporate and transactional, litigation and dispute resolution, regulatory and compliance, intellectual property, employment and labor, or tax.
- If you do not currently live in the Bay Area, you must be willing to relocate there at your own cost before the engagement starts — relocation assistance is not provided.
Nice to have
- a highly ranked school is strongly preferred.
