Description
ABOUT CROSBY Crosby is built on a simple conviction: a great legal system is the watermark of a great society — and the best legal work comes from combining human expertise with the right technology, not replacing one with the other. Crosby is the first AI-native law firm, helping ambitious companies like Cursor, Ramp, and Cognition sign commercial contracts faster. Legal work is both art and science, and we're mapping the frontier between the two — codifying what can be systematized, amplifying human judgment where it matters most. That's why the right way to bring AI into law isn't to sell software and walk away. It's to own the outcome together: higher-quality work, delivered faster. We build proprietary tools and human-in-the-loop workflows that change what's possible for corporate legal teams. Crosby was founded by Ryan (Stanford Law, Cooley, startup GC) and John (Penn, first 15 engineers at Ramp). We work together, in person, in New York City — because the best ideas still happen in the same room. Help us transform one of society's most important industries. ABOUT THE ROLE This is Crosby’s first dedicated finance hire. We expect this role to be a senior individual contributor with broad ownership and high visibility. As Strategic Finance Lead, you’ll have the unique opportunity to build the financial foundation that helps Crosby scale.

In this role, you’ll work directly with the founders and partner closely with leaders across growth, legal, operations, and engineering. You’ll help Crosby understand what is happening in the business, what should happen next, and where we should invest.
