Founders’ Associate

About Us

At Lexi, we’re revolutionising how legal work gets done. We are building AI legal associates that complete real legal work end to end. Not autocomplete, not copilots, but associates that can plan, use tools, reason across documents, and work the way a real lawyer would.

For decades, legal work has been bottlenecked by human hours. AI is more than autocomplete now. It can produce leverage across research, drafting, review, and matter work, and we believe AI legal associates will become the default. Lexi is building the company that defines what that looks like.

The Role

As a Founders’ Associate, you’ll work directly with the founders on the highest-leverage work across customers, content, operations, and special projects. This is a role for someone who wants broad exposure to how an early-stage AI company is built, and is willing to own whatever moves the company forward. Right now that mostly means customer onboarding, demos, and follow-up, plus founder leverage and the collateral that comes with it.

What you'll own

• ▸Customer momentum: Customers are onboarded, given demos and walkthroughs, followed up with consistently, and their feedback is synthesized into clear input for the team.
• ▸Founder leverage: Important follow-ups, coordination, research, and execution move forward without the founders needing to chase every detail.
• ▸Collateral and copy: Customer-facing material, follow-ups, one-pagers, and the occasional marketing piece get produced quickly when a conversation or deal needs them.
• ▸Special projects: Ambiguous company priorities are picked up, structured, and pushed forward quickly.

What we're looking for

• ▸You can take an unclear problem, break it down, and make progress without waiting for perfect instructions.
• ▸You write clearly and can adapt messaging for different audiences, from customers to partners to internal updates.
• ▸You are comfortable speaking with customers, running walkthroughs, following up, and extracting useful feedback.
• ▸You are organized enough to keep multiple moving pieces alive without dropping balls.
• ▸You care more about ownership and learning than having a tightly defined lane.
• ▸You are excited by broad exposure across company-building, not just one function.
• ▸You have a track record of shipping real things end to end, in a startup or anywhere no one handed you a playbook.

Who thrives here

We’re a lean team taking on one of the oldest industries in the world. The people who do well here are high-agency, direct, and comfortable building where there is no playbook.

• ▸High ownership: You own outcomes, not tasks. No one will hand you a perfectly scoped problem.
• ▸Speed with depth: You move fast without lowering the standard. We care about pace and quality.
• ▸Directness: You give and take feedback clearly. Ego costs time.
• ▸Comfort with ambiguity: You can make progress before everything is figured out.
• ▸Raise the bar: You push for the best version we’re capable of, then better next quarter.
