The Opportunity
This role gives you ownership of the final quality of every contract that goes out, reviewing at real volume and within firm turnaround windows, working alongside an AI-assisted first pass and applying your legal judgment against the client's playbook before handing off to quality control for final sign-off.
What You'll Do:
Perform initial review of a high-volume pipeline of commercial agreements, specifically NDAs, master services agreements, and vendor arrangements,
ensuring rapid turnaround and strict adherence to client-specific playbooks.
Work within Sterlington's AI-powered review workflow, treating each AI-generated first-pass markup as a starting point you verify and correct, with every final call resting on your own legal judgment.
Apply legal playbooks accurately and consistently, escalating anything outside established guidance to quality control rather than deciding it independently.
Identify and flag confidentiality and commercial risks within standard transactions, spotting non-standard terms before they reach quality control.
Maintain accurate ticket status and clean handoffs across shifts, so turnaround stays on track for the next reviewer or QC.
Manage a demanding, high-volume queue in a fast-paced review environment, delivering accuracy without sacrificing turnaround speed.
What We're Looking For:
4+ years of experience in legal contract review, including hands-on NDA review
