This role is for one of our clients
Compensation: $90 - $100 per hour
Role Overview
- We are seeking senior public interest law professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in civil rights, environmental, and public advocacy contexts.
- The workflows are calibrated to the societal stakes, regulatory scope, and community impact of major public interest litigation and advocacy campaigns.
- This role builds worlds on two tracks: a US track (federal civil rights statutes, NEPA, Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act) and an International track (international human rights law, EU environmental directives). Experts qualified in either or both tracks are encouraged to apply.
- Contributors design public interest law scenarios, draft reference outputs, and write rubrics that capture how senior public interest attorneys think.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities
- Construct scenarios spanning civil rights litigation, environmental compliance and enforcement, and community advocacy or policy reform processes.
- Build tasks across civil rights and constitutional law, environmental law and regulation, housing and consumer protection, immigration and asylum, and government accountability.
- Develop scenarios involving tools such as legal research platforms, case management systems used by legal aid organizations and nonprofits, and regulatory filing systems (e.g., EPA dockets).
- Apply public interest law methodologies (constitutional analysis, regulatory compliance review, impact litigation strategy) to the standards track a world targets (US: federal civil rights statutes, NEPA, environmental statutes; International: human rights treaties, EU directives), and produce reference legal briefs, regulatory comments, and advocacy memoranda.
- Author rubrics that distinguish authentic public interest legal judgment from generic law school or bar exam-level recall.
Ideal Qualifications
- 5+ years working as a public interest attorney at a legal aid organization, advocacy nonprofit, or government agency (ACLU, Earthjustice, NRDC, Legal Aid Society, or a state attorney general's office).
- Direct ownership of impact litigation, regulatory advocacy, or policy reform initiatives.
- Fluency in public interest legal tooling, plus understanding of how regulatory processes and legislative advocacy actually work.
- A recognized professional credential is strongly preferred (JD with bar admission, or an international equivalent); prior rubric, training, or policy authorship is a plus.
We consider all qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.
