Data Scientist

Data Scientist | Elite US Law Firm | Remote (UK)

I\’m working with an elite US law firm that is building one of the most advanced in-house AI teams in the legal sector. They’re not dabbling in legal tech; they’re redesigning how legal work is done, backed by serious investment and a world-class practice.

They are now looking to hire a Data Scientist to join a high-performing, 12-person AI team working on cutting-edge LLM systems, multi-modal models, document-intelligence pipelines and real-world AI tools used daily by lawyers.

What you’ll work on:

• Building production-grade AI systems used across the firm
• Developing document classifiers, contract analysers and end-to-end intelligence pipelines
• Designing evaluation frameworks and optimising model performance
• Turning complex legal data into high-quality, structured datasets
• Collaborating with engineers and legal specialists to build tools that genuinely shift workloads

What they’re looking for:

• Strong ML fundamentals and hands-on LLM experience
• Proficiency in Python and familiarity with modern AI tooling (e.g., embeddings, retrieval, multi-agent architectures, document understanding)
• Interest in legal workflows (no legal background required)
• NLP on long-form or structured documents
• Experience in fast-paced AI environments or start-ups
