Overview

micro1 is hiring Junior Lawyers to support a customer project that improves legal AI systems. You will use your legal expertise to train next-generation models, shaping how they learn and reason from real-world input. No prior AI experience is needed. Your domain knowledge in U.S. law, Bluebook citation, and legal analysis is what matters. The role is remote and contractor-based.

Perform cite-checking and ensure strict adherence to Bluebook citation format across legal texts.
Curate, edit, and evaluate legal writing samples to build datasets for AI training.
Provide detailed feedback on legal arguments, logical structure, and use of precedent in sample documents.
Summarize intricate legal concepts in clear, concise language suitable for algorithmic understanding.
Collaborate remotely with project managers and legal experts to meet deliverables and quality benchmarks.
Contribute to quality assurance by validating AI outputs against legal accuracy and best practices.

Experience as a law review or legal journal editor, with a demonstrated commitment to editorial excellence (required for law students).
Exceptional Bluebook citation and legal cite-checking skills.
Proven ability to communicate clearly and professionally in both written and verbal formats.
Experience with document review, legal analysis, or paralegal tasks in the U.S. legal system.
Detail-oriented, analytical, and committed to delivering high-quality, accurate outputs within defined timelines.

Who Should Apply

J.D. graduates or current law students with law review or journal editing experience and top-tier Bluebook skills. You have done document review or legal analysis in the U.S. system and want to apply that knowledge to legal AI training. T14 law school alumni or students are preferred.
