The job description

About the Role

What if you could use your legal expertise to make AI systems reason more like a good lawyer?

We're looking for experienced US legal professionals anywhere in the country to review AI-generated legal analysis, judge whether it holds up, and correct it where it doesn't. You'll assess answers on tasks like contract and case analysis, flag flawed reasoning, and explain your judgment clearly in writing.

Your expertise will help determine whether AI models can reach the conclusions a careful, experienced attorney would reach — and where they fall short.

This is a remote, hourly contract opportunity for US-based professionals who want to apply their legal knowledge to an emerging area of AI development — from wherever they are.

Position Details

Organization: Alignerr Type: Hourly Contract Location: Fully Remote (US-based, must be legally eligible to work in the US) Commitment: Typically 25–35 hours per week, based on project demand Engagement: Work is dynamic. Volume follows project demand and may pause or end at any time without notice.

What You'll Do

Evaluate AI-Generated Legal Analysis

Review AI responses to legal questions and tasks, including contract and case analysis. Assess whether the reasoning is sound, the conclusions are supported, and the answer is complete.

Identify and Correct Errors

Spot inaccuracies, flawed logic, missing considerations, and unsupported conclusions. Write corrected answers that reflect how an experienced attorney would approach the problem.

Provide Clear Written Explanations

Explain what is wrong, why it matters, and how to fix it — with the clarity and precision you would bring to a client memo.

Who You Are

An experienced legal professional with strong command of legal reasoning and analysis.
Skilled at contract or case analysis, or equivalent legal work.
Able to critically judge AI-generated answers and tell a sound argument from a confident but wrong one.
An excellent, precise written communicator.
Legally eligible to work in the US.
Comfortable with variable weekly hours that follow project demand.

Relevant Expertise

Experience in one or more of the following is particularly valuable:

Contract drafting, review, and negotiation
Litigation, case research, and legal analysis
Regulatory and compliance work
Legal writing, such as memos, briefs, and opinions
Mentoring, supervising, or reviewing the work of other attorneys

Why You'll Love This

Apply your expertise to AI development. Help shape how AI systems handle legal reasoning.
Earn competitive compensation for specialized legal expertise.
Work remotely from anywhere in the US — full flexibility, no commute.
Meaningful work. Your judgment directly improves the quality of AI systems.
Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work.
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch.
