AI Legal Brief Summarization Engineer

Emma Garcia

Full-time · Job · New_York

About the role

Our data grows faster than our lawyers can read it. Breva AI processes thousands of legal briefs, court filings, and regulatory submissions every week, and we need an NLP engineer who can build the summarization layer that sits between raw documents and actionable insights. You'll build fine-tuned summarization pipelines using transformer-based models, evaluate output quality with both automated metrics and attorney feedback loops, and iterate on prompt strategies for different document types — from 200-page discovery sets to 3-page motions. You'll work closely with our legal tech product team and directly with practicing attorneys who will tell you exactly what a good summary looks like. Breva's tools are used by boutique litigation firms and in-house legal teams across the US. The summarization engine you build will reduce attorney review time and directly impact billing efficiency. This is NLP with a clear user and a clear metric — not research for its own sake.

Responsibilities

  • Build and fine-tune legal document summarization pipelines
  • Design prompt strategies for different document categories (briefs, contracts, filings)
  • Own the evaluation framework including automated metrics and attorney feedback integration
  • Partner with product to ship summarization features in the attorney-facing dashboard
  • Monitor model quality and handle regression incidents

Requirements

  • 3+ years NLP engineering experience
  • Hands-on with Hugging Face transformers and fine-tuning workflows
  • Experience with RAG and retrieval-augmented generation patterns
  • Strong Python skills
  • Familiarity with legal document formats is helpful but not required

Benefits

  • Remote-first, async-friendly environment
  • Competitive salary with annual review
  • Legal industry conference sponsorship
  • Home office stipend ($1,500 setup)
  • Health and dental coverage
