WHY HARVEY At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched. Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you. At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started. ROLE OVERVIEW The Head of Research Community and Operations is a senior leader who connects Harvey's research organization to the broader AI and legal tech ecosystem while ensuring the team operates with rigor and velocity. Harvey's research teams, spanning AI research and applied legal research, are at the forefront of building large language model systems that transform how professionals deliver complex knowledge work. This role drives both the external visibility of Harvey's research efforts and the internal operational infrastructure that keeps research initiatives on track and deeply integrated with product and engineering.
