Cofounder & CTO
Berlin, Germany
About Us
Libra is a category-defining, venture-backed generative AI startup. We’re building infrastructure for the legal system of tomorrow.
We’re driven by a mission to empower every claim owner to make use of their rights. In today’s world, access to the internet is easier than access to justice. We believe in the importance of robust legal systems and AI’s potential to remove many of the obstacles to accessing them. That’s why we’re developing an AI claims drafting factory, which will automatically deliver legal claims using LLMs.
As a fast-moving venture, we’ve closed three pilots with prominent enterprise customers and raised a 1mln EUR in a pre-seed investment from Merantix, Europe’s leading specialist AI Fund. Now we’re building the first prototypes and are looking for a Cofounder & CTO to lead technical development and help make our vision of a fair, easy to access legal system a reality.
Why us?
- Established product-market fit: after over 300 interviews we have thoroughly validated AI use-cases in the legal industry and secured pilots with three prominent enterprise customers. You will have the opportunity to build a product solving a validated problem for our customers in the legal insurance vertical.
- A team with deep domain expertise in the legal field: join Viktor who’s left a litigation career (a top 40u40 lawyer, ex Oxford, Freshfields) when he recognised the potential of AI to revolutionise legal practice. Viktor is a second-time legaltech founder (ex EF), who’s learned the value of developing vertical-specific applications. With experience building arbitration and alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, he’s deeply driven by the belief that AI can break the cost and accessibility barriers to the traditional legal system.
- Opportunity to build an impactful product and work on some of the hardest engineering problems in the AI field, including hallucination, reliability and traceability, crucial in legal applications.
- Competitive salary, along with founder’s equity
- Flexible work arrangements, with access to a vibrant community at the AI Campus in Berlin
Your Role
As Cofounder & CTO, you'll lead the company in developing LLM products for the legal sector.
With secured legal datasets and customer pilots in the legal insurance vertical, we have built prototypes proving AI’s capability to automate chunks of the legal case workflow. At the current stage, our prototype is able to draft an initial claim letter in one legal area. As CTO, you will take the current MVP-stage prototype to a scaleable legal AI product, capable of handling the entire legal claim workflow in multiple legal areas. In collaboration with our pilot customers, will have the opportunity to work with extensive legal datasets, in multiple legal areas.
