- Collaborate remotely with project leads and technical specialists to provide expertise on nuanced compliance and regulatory questions.
- Develop scenario-based questions and answers reflecting current trends and challenges in compliance law.
- Identify ambiguities or potential legal pitfalls in AI outputs and suggest improvements for clarity and precision.
- Contribute feedback on process enhancements, supporting the continuous refinement of AI training protocols.
Preferred Qualifications
- Juris Doctor (JD) degree from an accredited U.S. law school and active attorney license in good standing.
- 3-10+ years of recent, substantive experience practicing compliance law within the United States.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to articulate complex concepts clearly and concisely.
- US-based, currently practicing in the field of compliance law.
- Judicial clerkship experience (service as a clerk for a judge) preferred.
- Experience teaching law courses or legal writing at accredited law schools is a plus.
- Editorial experience with legal journals during law school is highly valued.
