Legal Engineer at Orbital working on AI-powered legal assistant, transforming real estate law practices. Join a pioneering team focused on innovation in legal technology.
Responsibilities
Translate commercial real estate legal work into structured, repeatable workflows that can be understood by AI systems.
Break down complex legal tasks (e.g. due diligence, lease analysis, title review) into discrete steps, rules, and decision logic.
Collaborate with engineers and product teams to design, test, and refine AI-driven legal features.
Review and improve AI outputs to ensure legal accuracy, clarity, and usefulness for practising lawyers.
Help define best-in-class legal standards for AI-assisted real estate work.
Stay close to how lawyers actually work, ensuring products are grounded in real-world practice rather than theory.
Requirements
You’re a Scottish-qualified solicitor (England & Wales and/or Scotland) with experience in commercial real estate, including areas such as acquisitions, disposals, leasing, development, or real estate finance.
Ideally, you have 5+ years PQE, but we’re very open to strong candidates with less experience who show the right mindset.
You can deconstruct legal work into clear, logical steps that could be followed by a machine or automated process.
You’re highly tech-literate, curious, and comfortable learning new tools quickly.
You’re genuinely interested in AI, large language models, and LegalTech, and how they can be applied to improve legal practice.
You may not have done a role like this before (almost no one has!) — but you’re analytical, adaptable, and excited by building something new.
