Clara median: 50 days open

The posting

Clara is the leading platform in Latin America for companies to execute and manage every payment operation. More than 50,000 leading and fast-growing businesses run on our corporate cards, bill pay, financing and B2B payments, and in 2025 the Financial Times named Clara the region’s fastest-growing company. We’re passionate about helping every company we work with become more effective—and, through that, raising the region’s competitiveness. We’re ~400 people, backed by Notable Capital, Coatue, Kaszek, monashees, DST Global, ICONIQ, General Catalyst and Goldman Sachs, among others.

What you'll do We're looking for a Legal Engineer — AI & Legal Automation to help reinvent how in-house legal work gets done at Clara. You will bridge the gap between legal expertise and technology, joining a team that combines best-in-class legal experts, engineers, and AI agents to push the boundaries of legal service delivery.

Your primary responsibilities will include:

  • Advise Clara on the overall enhancement of the in-house legal function through the use of technology and automation.
  • Identify repetitive, manual, and time-consuming legal tasks that can be simplified, automated, or eliminated.
  • Build, experiment with, and deploy AI-powered legal workflows, agents, scripts, and internal tools using platforms like N8N.
  • Support and develop technology-driven solutions for corporate, litigation, employment, intellectual property, data privacy, commercial, financial, and fintech legal matters.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Finance, Sales, and Operations to identify cross-functional interactions and build secure, maintainable solutions that integrate with our existing processes.
  • Validate AI-generated legal analysis, designing workflows with appropriate human review, escalation paths, auditability, and quality controls to protect confidential information.
  • Turn institutional knowledge into reusable systems, structured knowledge bases, and reliable workflows.
  • Measure the impact of automation through time saved, reduced turnaround times, and increased team capacity.

Who you are “We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.”

Must haves

  • A law degree in at least one jurisdiction with experience in corporate, commercial, financial, regulatory, or fintech law.
  • Experience or interest in AI tools to automate workflows.
  • Strong legal writing, analytical reasoning, and contract drafting skills with a deep understanding of legal frameworks.
  • A builder mindset: you enjoy creating things, testing ideas, and improving systems rather than accepting existing processes as fixed.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication, with the ability to explain complex legal issues clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Adaptability to fast-changing environments with high ownership, intellectual curiosity, and attention to detail.
  • Proven role-specific execution in balancing professional legal judgment with technological innovation.

Nice to haves

  • Basic proficiency in Spanish or Portuguese (when it's not the country's main language) or a desire to learn it.
  • Independent analytical skills using spreadsheets, SQL, or Python.
  • An active Github profile, personal projects, open-source contributions, scripts, or prototypes you can share.
  • Familiarity with APIs, large language models, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), or AI-assisted development.
  • Experience advising in the fintech or technology sectors, with knowledge of capital markets, AML/CFT, data protection, or cybersecurity.
  • A good sense of humor.

Why Clara

  • A high talent-density team driven to make an impact in Latin America — low ego, high ownership.
  • Competitive salary and stock options (ESOP) from day one.
  • An annual learning budget and accelerated development paths.
  • English is our working language, with Spanish and Portuguese every day.

How we work

  • Clarity — Open and direct communication: we say what we mean and give context where it matters.
  • Simplicity — If it can be simpler, it should be.
  • Ownership — We own everything we do, end to end. When something needs to happen, we don't wait.
  • Pride — We hold ourselves to a high standard, and it shows in what we deliver.
  • ABC (Always Be Changing) — We adapt fast, embrace change, and keep learning.
  • Inclusivity — Diverse ideas, stories and perspectives build a better Clara.

If you meet the must-haves, apply — the nice-to-haves are a bonus, not a requirement.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
