This role is for a strategic designer who is also a builder, comfortable taking an idea from sketch to working, production-quality code with AI. You will drive end-to-end design and hands-on implementation across core case strategy workflows, partnering closely with Product, Engineering, and UX Research to build products that help legal teams leverage AI capabilities to get to insights faster, and develop a defensible case strategy through data-driven storytelling.<p style="text-align:inherit"></p><p style="text-align:inherit"></p><p style="text-align:left"><i><u><b>Job Description and Requirements </b></u></i></p><p><span style="color:#000000"><b>What You'll Do</b></span></p><p style="color:!important"><span style="color:#000000"><b>Lead design across Discovery domain</b></span></p><p style="color:!important"><span style="color:#000000">Own design from discovery through delivery across core case strategy workflows, such as early case insights, conflict detection, and deposition/trial preparation.
