Full Job Description
The Role

As Director, Cloud & AI Partnerships, you'll own Legora's relationships with our key cloud and AI platform partners. That means building the co-sell motion with their field teams, managing our marketplace presence, and making sure Legora is the product they reach for when a legal use case comes up. You'll work closely with Legora's sales team to bring cloud partnerships into live deals, and with Product to make sure our platform integrations support the story we're telling.

This is a new function at Legora. You'll set the strategy, build the relationships, and figure out what a high-performing cloud partnership actually looks like for a company at our stage. You'll report to the VP of Partnerships.

What You'll Do
  • Own Legora's relationships with key cloud and AI platform partners, building strong working relationships with their alliance, co-sell, and field teams.
  • Build and run the co-sell motion including account mapping with cloud field reps, joint pipeline development, and making sure Legora is positioned and enabled within the partner's sales teams.
  • Manage Legora's marketplace listings and transactable presence, ensuring we're discoverable and easy to buy through the channels our customers prefer.
  • Develop joint go-to-market plans with each partner, including demand generation programs, field engagement, and executive alignment.
  • Work with Sales to bring cloud partnerships into active deals where partner involvement accelerates the close.
  • Track partner-sourced pipeline, marketplace transactions, and co-sell activity, and use that data to prioritize where we invest.
  • Bring the outside in and share what you're hearing from cloud partners back into Product and GTM to inform how we build and position.

What You Bring
  • 8+ years in cloud alliances, hyperscaler partnerships, or strategic technology partnerships at an enterprise SaaS or AI company.
  • A track record of building co-sell motions that actually generated pipeline - not just relationships, but deals.
  • Deep familiarity with how cloud and AI platforms operate: their partner programs, co-sell mechanics, marketplace economics, and how their field teams make decisions.
  • Experience working cross-functionally with Sales, Product, and Marketing to align partner strategy with commercial goals.
  • Strong executive presence and the ability to build credibility quickly with senior partner stakeholders.
  • Comfort building from scratch in a high-growth environment where you're expected to set direction, not just execute a playbook.

Nice to have:
  • Experience in legal tech or selling into professional services buyers.
  • Time spent on the partner side at a major cloud or AI platform - understanding how they evaluate and prioritize ISV relationships.
  • Familiarity with marketplace transaction structures and co-sell incentive programs.


What's In It For You
  • Global collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Europe, APAC, and North America.
  • Competitive package: Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success.
  • Meaningful work: Your efforts shape how thousands of lawyers use AI daily.
  • In-person environment: Union Square office designed for ambitious builders and company provided lunch daily.
  • Benefits & Perks: We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed benefits package:
    Medical, Dental & Vision
    • Multiple medical plan options through Aetna and Kaiser Permanente
    • HSA or Healthcare FSA (based on plan selection)
    • Dental plans via MetLife
    • Vision plans via Vision Care

    Family Support
    • Generous parental leave
    • Free access to Maven Clinic
    • Dependent Care FSA
    • Free One Medical membership for employees and dependents

    Additional Perks
    • Pre-tax commuter benefits
    • Life Insurance + STD/LTD
    • 401(K) with generous company match
    • Unlimited PTO
    • Robust voluntary benefits, including identity protection (via Aura), legal coverage via MetLife, pet savings programs, and more
