What are the responsibilities and job description for the AI Prompt Engineer / Legal Writer position at fragomen?
Job Description About the role: We are seeking an innovative and detail-oriented AI Prompt Engineer / Legal Content Developer to help design, build, and optimize AI-driven tools that support complex legal writing workflows. This role goes beyond traditional legal writing, focusing on developing, refining, and scaling prompt frameworks and AI-assisted solutions that enhance the quality, consistency, and efficiency of legal content creation. As part of a forward-thinking team, you will collaborate closely with attorneys, technologists, and operations stakeholders to shape how AI is leveraged across immigration casework. This is an opportunity to play a key role in transforming legal service delivery through intelligent tool development and prompt engineering. How will you make a difference as an AI Prompt Engineer / Legal Writer at Fragomen? Design, test, and iterate on AI prompts to support the drafting of complex business immigration case materials (e.g., O-1, EB-1, NIW petitions). Partner with legal teams to translate nuanced legal strategies into structured, repeatable prompt frameworks. Develop and optimize AI-assisted workflows that improve drafting efficiency, accuracy, and scalability. Evaluate AI-generated outputs, refining prompts to ensure high-quality, compliant, and persuasive legal content. Collaborate with internal technology teams to enhance and expand AI-enabled tools and platforms. Serve as a subject matter expert on prompt engineering best practices and AI-assisted legal writing. Identify opportunities to automate or streamline manual drafting and research processes. Ensure all AI-assisted outputs align with legal standards, firm policies, and client expectations. Continuously monitor and improve prompt performance based on feedback, outcomes, and evolving AI capabilities. Contribute to internal knowledge sharing and the development of prompt libraries and documentation. Leverage your valuable skills and experience to make an impact at Fragomen: Bachelors degree in Creative Writing, English, Journalism, or writing related field. 2–5 years of experience in legal writing, technical writing, AI prompt engineering, or a related field. Strong interest in developing tools and systems, not just using them. Experience working with generative AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, or similar platforms). Exceptional writing, editing, and analytical skills with the ability to break down complex information into structured inputs. Ability to think systematically about language, logic, and workflows. Comfort working in a fast-paced, evolving environment with emerging technologies. Strong collaboration skills and ability to work cross-functionally with legal and technical teams. Business immigration experience is a plus but not required. All offers and/or employment contracts are contingent upon the successful completion of the Firm’s pre-employment screening process. This process may include verifying the candidate’s identity, confirming legal authorization to work in the offered position’s location, and conducting a comprehensive background check, where permitted by local regulations. We use limited AI‑assisted tools for administrative screening purposes only - never for decision‑making. All hiring decisions are made by people. Applicants may have rights to information and explanations regarding the use of such tools, or request human review, as required by applicable regional laws.
