Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This Solutions Attorney or Legal Engineer role sits at a growing intersection in SaaS: product-led legal workflows powered by large language models, where adoption depends as much on trust and domain fluency as it does on model performance. The listing signals a company building a horizontal platform for contract negotiation, with the role positioned as a bridge between legal users and a technical product that must work in real, high-stakes environments.
For a SaaS career, the value is in developing the hybrid toolkit that modern AI software companies increasingly rely on: translating practitioner needs into implementable configurations, shaping customer feedback into product signal, and helping define what “good” looks like for outcomes and usability. Experience collaborating directly with engineering and design on model outputs and UX is especially portable across AI-native SaaS, where solution design and product iteration often happen in the same loop.
This role tends to suit professionals who enjoy being customer-facing while also staying close to how the product is built, tested, and improved. It aligns with someone comfortable owning end-to-end engagements, moving between demos, onboarding, and internal problem-solving, and who prefers a hands-on position at an earlier-stage company where specialization can emerge over time.

Job Description
Why Ivo?
Contract negotiation is the most time-consuming, costly, and difficult component of the contract lifecycle—and it hasn’t gotten much easier since the days of fax machines.
Large language models have unlocked the ability to solve many contract negotiation problems at scale. Our product is best-in-market (we have an 85%+ h2h trial win rate) and used by some of the leading companies in the world.
Overview:
We’re looking for a Solutions Attorney with a legal background to drive Ivo’s growth by engaging with law firms and in-house legal teams, becoming a trusted advisor on how Ivo’s solutions can enhance their effectiveness, demonstrating the value of our product, and guiding them in its successful implementation.
The role will be varied with opportunities to specialize into certain areas as the company grows but key responsibilities may include:
Being a champion of the product and advocating for Ivo at sales calls, customer onboarding calls, demos, webinars, events and conferences.
Lead product demonstrations tailored to the context of various in-house legal teams, asking questions to validate how Ivo can add value and then showcasing Ivo’s features and benefits relevant to each prospective client’s potential use cases.
Acting as a close and trusted advisor to our customers to help them integrate Ivo into their workflows and adopt best-in-class practices for scaling AI in their day-to-day work.
Implement (and oversee the implementation of) “Playbooks” for our prospects derived from their precedents, templates, and historical agreements.
Work closely with our engineers to improve the outputs of our models and with our designers to improve our UX / UI.
Act as the “Voice of the Customer,” using your legal perspective to help the broader sales team to develop and implement more effective strategies and synthesize customer feedback for the product team through a legal lens.
Ivo might be a good fit for you if you have:
2+ years of legal experience, either at a law firm or in-house legal team.
Sales or customer-facing experience, including legal business development and/or secondment, is a plus, as is experience directly managing law firm client matters and client relationships.
Outstanding presentation skills to both legal and executive audiences, whether impromptu on a whiteboard or using presentations and demos.
Have a "do what it takes" attitude. You're willing to dive into problems and solve them yourself — you won't have anyone to delegate to.
You are excited about the adventure of building a company and want to be part of something early-stage.
Would describe yourself as being relentlessly resourceful.
You have a strong internal sense of urgency. You have a bias towards doing things today, rather than tomorrow.
