Source and classification

Deployment strategy · Evidence for this classification:

Harbor Labs is a new team within Harbor focused on solving hard AI implementation problems in the legal market. We have strong hypotheses about what works, but we're building this like a startup: learning as we go, adjusting direction based on what the market tells us, and staying flexible about how we operate. We're looking for a Director of AI Engagements to lead our most important client relationships and set the strategy for how we deploy AI in production. This is a senior role for someone who can sit across the table from a GC or COO, shape the direction of an engagement, and then roll up their sleeves and build alongside the team to deliver it. This is a leadership role, but not a hands-off one. You'll own the strategy for your engagements and stay close enough to the work to configure systems, pressure-test outputs, and make the calls that determine whether AI actually sticks
