  • Building and leading a team of 2-3 researchers
  • Working with lawyers and other engineers to turn your breakthroughs into product

Mission

Every major business has an in-house legal team, and all of those lawyers are overworked. 80 hour weeks, tight deadlines and contract-reading death marches are the industry norm. Up until recently, there wasnt anything technology could do to help this situation.

LLMs have given us the ability to give these lawyers their lives back, and at Ivo, thats our mission.

  • Would describe yourself as being relentlessly resourceful.
  • You have a strong internal sense of urgency. You have a bias towards doing things *today*, rather than tomorrow.
