Tarter Krinsky & Drogin's Legal Engineer posting describes the role as the bridge between attorneys and AI infrastructure, with responsibility for workflow design, pilots, training, vendor relations, QA and feedback loops. The posting requires a JD, practice experience, software-development capability and familiarity with tools such as Harvey, Legora, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex and LangChain. This is the talent model behind the new legal frontier: not a traditional associate track, and not a pure technologist role, but an attorney-builder who can turn AI tools into adopted practice infrastructure.
