Reports to: Irfad Imtiaz, Director of Technology About us My Legal Academy (MLA) helps US law firms grow. We run their marketing, teach attorneys to use AI in weekly live workshops, and build AI systems inside their firms as a done-for-you service. Our clients are partners at small, medium and large firms, solo attorneys and intake teams who need AI to work on the first try, reliably and safely. The role You sit between our clients and the code. You join the call, work out what the firm actually needs, build it with AI agents, ship it, and make sure it keeps working. Nobody hands you tickets. You write the plan, you build it, and you tell the client when it's done. What you'll own Our marketing and intake agent platform. It's multi-tenant. It runs ad funnels, landing pages and the call queue our BDR team works from every day. You own the codebase, the infrastructure and the roadmap with me. Agent workspace deployments. We deploy an agent workspace inside client firms. You install it, connect it to the firm's tools (Clio, Filevine, Lawmatics, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace) and support the firm after launch. Client engagements. You'll run four to six client firms at a time: document pipelines, MCP servers, Claude skills, website and schema work, dashboards and reports. You keep each client's written state current, so any call can start without a catch-up. Internal technical work. Tracking pixels and conversion APIs, CRM (GoHighLevel) automations, data exports, domain and email setup, access management. You handle the queue that keeps MLA running. A normal week Three or four client calls. You lead some and join me on others. You run several Claude Code sessions at once: builder and QA agents, skills, MCP servers, deployments to DigitalOcean, Railway and Supabase. You write the short update each client gets after a call, and you send it the same day. You ship something to the platform, and you fix whatever the intake team reported. You keep each client's files and logs current, so anyone can see where things stand. You'll fit if you Use Claude Code, Codex or a similar agent setup every day for real work, with subagents, skills and MCP. You can show us a repo, a session or a recording. Have shipped something to production on your own, as a freelancer, at a startup or as a side project with real users. Write and speak clear English and stay calm when a US attorney or their IT lead pushes back. Check agent output before it ships, and know what you'd never let an agent do unchecked. Know TypeScript or Python, Postgres, REST APIs and webhooks, and can find your way around a Linux server. Keep written notes without being asked. Usually 3 to 6 years of experience, but a strong body of work counts for more than years.
