The Role: Legal Product ChampionThis role doesn't sit neatly in a box. It's part lawyer, part product thinker, part trusted partner to our clients. As a
Legal Product Champion, you'll help midsized law firms adopt August, guide them through change, and show them how AI can be a real competitive edge.
You'll be the lawyer's voice inside August - translating practice needs into product insights, influencing roadmap priorities, and helping us build tools lawyers actually use.

- Translate practice into product: Capture lawyer pain points and opportunities, feeding directly into product and engineering conversations.
- Create scalable playbooks: Develop training, resources, and case studies that make adoption smoother across clients.
- Show impact: Help firms measure ROI and highlight wins - from faster drafting to better client service.
- Shape the role: This is a new function at August. You'll help define what "Legal Product" means here as we scale.
