About the Role

AltaML is seeking a Fractional Director of Legal to serve as the company's primary legal resource on a part-time, ongoing basis. Reporting to the CFO, this individual will own commercial contracting, corporate governance, and legal risk management, while managing outside counsel and supporting the company's board, investor, and cap table functions. This role suits an experienced legal professional — potentially supporting other clients or engagements in parallel — who wants a meaningful, embedded role at a growing company without a full-time commitment. Scope and time commitment will be revisited periodically as AltaML's needs evolve, with the possibility of transitioning to full-time.

Engagement Structure

  • Time commitment: Approximately 2–3 days per week (or equivalent hours), with flexibility based on transaction volume and business needs

  • Structure options: Open to contract/consulting arrangement or part-time employment, depending on candidate preference and tax/regulatory considerations

  • Availability: Responsive availability for board meetings, urgent contract turnarounds, and time-sensitive transaction matters, even outside core scheduled days

  • Compensation: Structured as a monthly retainer or day-rate, to be scoped based on anticipated hours; potential for equity component given AltaML's growth stage

 

This job description is intended to convey information essential to understanding the scope of the role and is not exhaustive. Time commitment, structure, and responsibilities may be adjusted as AltaML's needs evolve, including a potential path to full-time.

Commercial Contracts & Compliance

  • Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of commercial agreements, including client statements of work, master services agreements, NDAs, procurement and vendor contracts, and partnership agreements

  • Develop and maintain contract templates, playbooks, and approval workflows so routine agreements can move quickly even with limited legal bandwidth

  • Monitor and ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards across the jurisdictions AltaML operates in

  • Advise internal stakeholders (Sales, Delivery, People) on contractual and regulatory questions

Corporate Governance

  • Maintain corporate records, entity structures, and statutory filings across all AltaML entities

  • Ensure compliance with corporate governance obligations and internal policies

  • Support the development and maintenance of internal legal policies and procedures

Board & Investor Relations

  • Prepare board materials, resolutions, and minutes in coordination with the CFO and executive team

  • Support investor relations activities, including due diligence processes, disclosure schedules, and shareholder communications

  • Manage cap table administration, including equity issuances, option grants, and related documentation, in partnership with Finance

Transaction Support

  • Lead or support legal workstreams on corporate transactions, including financings, M&A, joint ventures, and strategic partnerships

  • Manage due diligence processes (both as a target and as an acquirer), including data room preparation and review

  • Draft and negotiate transaction-related documents (e.g., term sheets, purchase agreements, disclosure schedules) alongside outside counsel

  • Coordinate cross-functionally with Finance, Sales, and Delivery to ensure transactions close smoothly and post-close obligations are tracked

External Legal Resource Management

  • Manage relationships with outside counsel across specialty areas (e.g., IP, employment, tax, litigation), including scoping, budgeting, and quality control of external work product

  • Determine when to handle matters in-house versus engage outside counsel, optimizing for cost and risk — particularly important given limited on-site hours

What You Bring:

  • J.D. and active membership in good standing with the Law Society of Alberta (or eligibility to obtain Alberta membership, e.g., via NCA accreditation or interprovincial transfer)

  • 5+ years of legal experience, including significant experience in commercial contracting and corporate law; in-house experience strongly preferred

  • Experience supporting corporate governance matters, board processes, and cap table/equity administration, ideally at a venture-backed or growth-stage company

  • Working knowledge of technology, SaaS, or professional services contracting

  • Demonstrated ability to manage outside counsel effectively and cost-consciously

  • Prior experience in a fractional, part-time, or portfolio-career legal role is a plus, along with the discipline to prioritize effectively across a limited number of working days

  • Excellent judgment, discretion, and communication skills; comfortable advising executives and the board directly

  • Highly organized and self-directed; able to operate as a standalone legal function with minimal internal legal support

What Success Looks Like:

  • Contract turnaround times remain fast and predictable despite limited weekly hours, supported by strong playbooks and templates

  • Corporate governance and cap table records are accurate, current, and audit-ready at all times

  • The board and investors receive clear, timely, well-prepared materials and support, with no gaps caused by part-time availability

  • Outside counsel spend is well-managed and aligned to matters that genuinely require specialized expertise

  • The CFO and leadership team have clear visibility into legal priorities and turnaround expectations given the fractional structure

We are looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer who builds software in an AI-native way — someone who treats Claude and the latest agentic coding tools as a core part of their craft, not a novelty. In this role, you will contribute to the technical delivery of ML-powered applications across cloud services, APIs, and modern front-end frameworks, with Claude Code, the Claude API, and agentic workflows woven into how you design, build, and ship.

You will be an active contributor within your project pod, shipping features end-to-end, participating in technical design discussions, and growing your ability to translate business requirements into well-engineered solutions. You will take ownership of your work — writing clean, reviewable code, contributing to shared internal frameworks, and continuously developing your fluency with AI-assisted development.

You will thrive in this role if you are a builder who leans on Claude Code to move fast without cutting corners. You write clear specs, review AI-generated code critically, and know when to delegate to an agent versus when to handcraft. You are curious about where LLMs fit (and where they don’t), and you bring a practical, evidence-based instinct to that question.

What You'll Do:

    Full Stack Feature Delivery

  • Implement features end-to-end across front-end, back-end, and cloud infrastructure layers, taking ownership from design through deployment

  • Build and integrate RESTful APIs and cloud-hosted services, primarily on Azure, following established architecture patterns and security standards

  • Develop front-end components using modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks, with attention to usability, performance, and maintainability

  • Write unit, integration, and API tests as a standard part of delivery — not an afterthought — using frameworks appropriate to the stack (xUnit, Pytest, Postman, or similar)

  • Use Docker for local development, environment parity, and containerized deployments

  • Manage work in Git with clean branching, meaningful commit history, and effective collaboration with AI agents in the same workflow

  • LLM Feature Development

  • Build features that incorporate LLM calls via the Claude API or Azure OpenAI, including prompt design, context management, response handling, and cost-aware API usage

  • Implement RAG components and tool integrations as part of product features, working within established architecture patterns and contributing to their evolution

  • Write evaluation harnesses for LLM-powered features: regression tests for prompt behaviour, output quality checks, and agent tool use validation

  • Document LLM feature behaviour clearly: what the system does, what it does not do, known failure modes, and the guardrails in place

  • Develop growing awareness of when LLM-in-the-loop is the right architecture decision versus a conventional software approach — and contribute that perspective in design discussions

  • Technical Design & Problem-Solving

  • Participate actively in epic-level and feature-level design discussions, contributing well-reasoned proposals backed by research or prototype evidence

  • Use Claude to accelerate technical research: explore design alternatives, evaluate libraries, and investigate unfamiliar domains quickly — then synthesize findings into a clear recommendation

  • Identify and flag technical risks within your work scope early, with enough supporting detail for the tech lead or architect to make an informed decision

  • Produce clear technical documentation: decision records, implementation notes, and design summaries that a future team member can act on

  • AI-Native Development

  • Use Claude Code and AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and similar) as a standard part of the engineering workflow — for prototyping, code generation, refactoring, documentation, and debugging

  • Write clear, well-structured prompts and development specs that enable AI agents to produce useful, reviewable output — not vague instructions that generate noise

  • Review AI-generated code with the same rigour as human-authored code: check for correctness, edge cases, security issues, and maintainability before merging

  • Develop growing fluency in agentic development patterns: structuring repos for agent navigation, decomposing tasks into agent-friendly units, and knowing when human authorship is the right call

  • Contribute to internal discussions on AI tooling effectiveness — share what is working, what isn’t, and help refine the team’s approach

  • Collaboration & Growth

  • Participate in code reviews constructively — give specific, actionable feedback and incorporate peer feedback into your own work without defensiveness

  • Collaborate closely with ML engineers, data engineers, and product managers within the pod, understanding adjacent work well enough to minimize integration friction

  • Contribute reusable components, utilities, and internal skills to AltaML’s shared libraries

  • Engage in sprint ceremonies, stand-ups, and retrospectives as an active team member — raise blockers early, communicate progress clearly, and contribute to continuous improvement

  • Proactively seek feedback from peers and tech leads to accelerate your own growth toward senior-level ownership and technical leadership

What You Bring:

  • Degree or equivalent work experience in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline

  • 3–5 years of professional full stack development experience, with a track record of shipping production features end-to-end

  • Hands-on, daily-driver experience using Claude (Claude Code, claude.ai, or the Claude API), Cursor, or GitHub Copilot for real software engineering work — not just occasional use

  • Strong working experience with cloud services, ideally Azure (Functions, App Service, Blob Storage, Azure OpenAI, or similar)

  • Proficiency in a modern object-oriented language — C#, Python, TypeScript, or equivalent — with a clear point of view on writing clean, maintainable code

  • Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs and integrating third-party services

  • Solid front-end experience with a modern JavaScript/TypeScript framework (React, Vue, Angular, or similar)

  • Experience writing unit and API tests as a standard part of delivery (xUnit, Pytest, Postman, or similar)

  • Comfortable with Docker for local development and containerized deployments

  • Proficiency with Git, including working effectively in a branch-based workflow alongside AI agents

  • Experience working in an Agile environment with iterative delivery cycles

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills — able to articulate technical decisions clearly to peers and participate confidently in client-facing discussions

  •  

Nice to Have's:

  • Experience integrating LLM APIs (Claude, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI) into product features, including prompt design and cost management

  • Exposure to RAG architectures, vector databases, or tool-augmented LLM workflows

  • Familiarity with agentic frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, Autogen, or similar)

  • Experience writing evaluation harnesses or regression tests for LLM-powered features

  • Exposure to CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment workflows (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar)

  • Prior experience in a consulting, applied AI, or client-delivery environment

  • Contributions to open-source projects or internal platforms

About the Role

As a Lead AI Engineer, you will play a key individual contributor role in designing and delivering production-ready AI-powered applications for the Brilliant Harvest platform. Combining deep technical expertise with leadership skills, you will mentor teammates, guide architectural decisions, and ensure the delivery of scalable, high-quality software solutions. Working closely with the VP of AI Engineering and the AI Architect, you will help shape the technical direction of our AI stack — from RAG pipelines and agentic workflows to document ingestion and model integration.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves solving complex problems, and is excited about taking ideas from concept to deployment in a domain where AI is transforming a legacy industry.

Key Responsibilities

    Architect & Build

  • Design, develop, document, and maintain robust prototypes and scalable production systems, with a focus on applied AI/ML, RAG architectures, and agentic workflows.

  • Build and improve document ingestion pipelines that form the knowledge foundation of the platform, ensuring data enrichment, accuracy, and compliance with manufacturer standards.

  • Evaluate and integrate LLMs, agent frameworks, and supporting tooling as the frontier model landscape evolves, collaborating with the AI Architect on vendor and model selection.

  • Technical Leadership

  • Participate in and often lead brainstorming sessions, design reviews, code reviews, and architecture evolution discussions, ensuring best practices and long-term technical sustainability.

  • Champion coding standards, automated testing, CI/CD practices, and AI-first development workflows (e.g., Claude Code or similar agentic tools) to improve velocity and quality.

  • Contribute to the analysis of business requirements, prepare design and implementation recommendations, and provide reliable development effort estimates.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work collaboratively across Product, Data, Design, and QA teams to drive outcomes aligned with business objectives and the product roadmap.

  • Review and provide feedback on the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs, ensuring seamless integration with backend systems and AI capabilities.

  • Translate data requirements and AI capabilities into clear, actionable specifications, and communicate technical constraints and tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders.

  • Mentorship & Team Development

  • Provide hands-on guidance, mentorship, and knowledge sharing to junior and intermediate engineers, fostering a culture of learning and innovation — as an individual contributor working alongside them, not as their manager.

  • Promote a "Systems Thinking" mindset, helping engineers move from writing code to orchestrating AI-generated solutions.

  • Design workflows that use AI to accelerate the growth of junior talent rather than automating them out of the process.

Qualifications & Skills

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering or data science experience, with at least 2 years focused on AI/ML systems in production.

  • Proven track record deploying generative AI, LLMs, RAG architectures, or document ingestion pipelines with data enrichment in a production environment.

  • Strong proficiency in Python and at least one of: TypeScript, C# (.NET), or a modern backend language.

  • Experience with React, React Native, or modern frontend frameworks and how they integrate with AI-powered backends.

  • Solid understanding of microservices architecture, API design, and cloud infrastructure.

  • Demonstrated ability to mentor junior engineers and influence technical direction without formal authority.

  • Experience working in a startup environment is considered a strong asset.

  • Experience with agentic workflows, prompt engineering best practices, and AI-first development tooling (e.g., Claude Code or similar) is a strong asset.

  • Familiarity with the agriculture, heavy equipment, or dealership domain is a strong asset.

What Will Set You Apart?

  • You've built in a startup where the roadmap moved under your feet. You've owned things before they were fully defined, and you know the corner you can cut now from the one that costs you in six months.

  • You've taken a research-heavy idea and made it survive contact with real users, real data, and real latency and cost budgets. You know which results hold up in production and which quietly fall apart once the inputs get messy.

  • You understand that RAG lives or dies on retrieval, not generation. When answer quality breaks, you trace it back to why the right document didn't surface — because you know that's usually where it actually broke.

  • You've built evals from scratch, not inherited a dashboard. You can turn "good answer" into measurable criteria, stand up LLM-as-judge or human-in-the-loop pipelines, and keep them running so regressions get caught before customers do.

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a high-performing team led by Remi Schmaltz, an entrepreneur with decades of experience launching and growing agriculture businesses. 

  • Remote-first role with a flexible work environment.

  • A front-row seat to how AI is changing the way equipment dealers, farmers, and contractors work.

  • A collaborative culture that values growth, learning, and impact.

  • Competitive compensation, ESOP, and benefits.

The Role

You will be the designer on a product team, working directly with a product manager and a tech lead. Not a design resource that work gets sent to. In the room, from the first discovery conversation to the shipped product and every iteration after.

Your job on that team is to own usability risk. The PM worries about whether it is valuable and viable, the tech lead worries about whether we can build it, and you worry about whether users can actually use it, and whether they will want to. On enterprise AI products that risk is real and it is where most of these products fail. Users do not trust what they cannot understand, and they quietly stop using what slows them down.

The way you attack that risk is discovery and prototypes. You will sit in discovery sessions with clients and their end users. You will turn what you hear into prototypes fast, put them in front of users, watch what happens, and iterate. Prototypes are how we answer questions here, not documents about prototypes. The bar is not software that works. The bar is software that customers love to use.

You will design within our shared design system and standards, and you will make them better. When you find a pattern that works, it goes back into the system so every team benefits. When a standard fails a user, you flag it and help fix the standard, so the same problem does not get rebuilt ten more times. We define design standards up front, precise enough that our AI coding tools build things right the first time, and your findings from real users are what keep those standards honest.

What We're Looking for

  • Shipped software people actually use. A portfolio with real products behind it, and you can talk about what users did with them, not just how they looked.

  • You prototype fast and think in iterations. Figma and AI-assisted design tools, working prototypes over static mocks, and you would rather test three rough versions this week than one polished version next month.

  • You want to be in discovery. Talking to users is the part of the job you protect, not the part you delegate.

  • You are good with engineers and good with users, and can move between the two without losing either.

  • Accessibility is part of your craft. We build for government and public sector clients where accessible design is a requirement, not a nice to have.

  • You create traction in a fast and sometimes messy environment. This is not a settled design org and it will not be for a while.

Why This Opportunity Matters:

    You will be working on new age AI products, helping design the future of how AI gets deployed with our platform. The work is using AI to improve the lives of our customers and making a real difference, ensuring what we build is not just usable but lovable, because lovable is what earns adoption and keeps it. Your prototypes will be in front of real users within weeks of joining, and there is real room to grow here as the design practice grows around you.
