About the Role

At Cozen O'Connor, a Most Loved Workplace® certified employer in the Legal Services space, Fifty Years of Results. One Case, One Victory at a Time..

The Legal Engineer – Transactional is the builder on that team. Where our Innovation Attorney (Transactional) partners with Business Law practice groups to diagnose workflows and decide what to solve, the Legal Engineer owns how those solutions get built, tested, and maintained. The role turns diligence, drafting, and deal-support use cases into reliable, governed, and reusable AI-enabled workflows—designing prompts, agents, and retrieval pipelines; building evaluation sets and quality controls; and standing up production-ready solutions that hold up to the demands of transactional practice. This is an opportunity for a builder who understands how deal work actually happens and wants to engineer the AI-enabled version of it. The ideal candidate pairs hands-on fluency with generative AI platforms and workflow tools with enough transactional understanding to know what “good” looks like, where AI is appropriate, and where human oversight is non-negotiable.
