Location: Remote, US (must be US-licensed)

Type: Full-time, permanent

Reports To: Kevin Park (CEO & Co-Founder)

Start Date: Immediately

Compensation: US$85,000–$120,000 base, up to US$150,000 total including performance-based incentives

The Opportunity

Our US practice is booming. The companies we work with - YC alumni, AI ventures, VC-backed startups - keep raising, hiring, and moving exceptional people across borders, and every one of those moments needs sharp legal work behind it. We need an attorney who can run H-1B through O-1A cases with confidence, and who gets a kick out of making the product that powers them smarter with every case.

About Concord

We exist so that exceptional people and companies can work wherever their ambition takes them.

Concord is a specialist immigration firm built for the speed and complexity of high-growth tech. We've already processed 3,000+ visas across US, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the UK for clients like Andreessen Horowitz, Halter, Tracksuit, Ideally, OpenStar and Zuru, and we're just getting started.

We spun out of Crimson Education because we saw an industry ripe for reinvention. Our founding team has built and scaled companies before; now we're combining that operator DNA with purpose-built technology to make global mobility seamless and transparent.

Most immigration firms still run on tired email chains and clunky shared drives, which means slow processes, opaque timelines, and a lot of unnecessary back-and-forth. We built our own platform to kill all of that. Our custom-built app gives applicants real-time visibility into their case and automates the admin so our highly experienced legal team can focus on the high-judgement work that moves cases forward.

We hire ambitious problem-solvers who choose ownership over complacency. If you want a seat at a startup where you ship things that matter, keep reading.

About the Role

You'll join our growing US legal team at the moment demand is outpacing us, running business immigration cases end-to-end for some of the most exciting companies in tech. Your clients are founders fresh off a funding round, engineers being recruited across continents, and operators taking the role of a lifetime - people who need clear, strategic advice on H-1B, L-1, E-2, E-3, O-1, EB-1A/B and PERM matters, delivered at startup speed.

The second half of the role is what makes it unusual: you'll work directly with our engineering and product teams to sharpen the platform itself. Every case you run is a chance to spot something worth automating, a form flow worth streamlining, or an advisory step worth building into the product. Your legal judgement doesn't just close cases here - it compounds into a better experience for every applicant after them.

Success looks like: a caseload of high-growth clients who rave about the clarity and speed of your advice, and a steady stream of product improvements shipped because you spotted them.

What you'll own

• Case strategy & execution: Run US business immigration cases end-to-end: H-1B, L-1, E-2, E-3, O-1, EB-1A/B and PERM - with the accuracy and pace our clients' hiring plans depend on.
• Client advisory: Give founders and their teams clear, strategic guidance on documentation, timelines and filing pathways, so a visa never becomes the reason a great hire falls through.
• Product improvement: Partner with engineering and product to streamline case prep and admin — identifying what to automate next, tightening workflows, and shaping the roadmap based on real case work.
• Regulatory intelligence: Track US immigration law and policy changes, and translate them into proactive advice for clients and timely updates to our processes and product.
• Trusted voice: Represent Concord in client conversations, presentations and thought-leadership moments that grow our reputation in the startup ecosystem.

Who we're looking for

You'll thrive at Concord (regardless of the role) if:

• You're energised by pace and ambiguity, not paralysed by it. When something's hard or unclear, your instinct is to figure it out rather than wait for instructions.
• You communicate with clarity and precision, whether the audience is a nervous applicant, a time-poor CEO, or a room full of people who know nothing about immigration.
• You're wired for outcomes. You don't confuse being busy with being effective.
• You're curious by default. You experiment with new tools, challenge existing processes, and consider "we've always done it this way" a poor excuse.
• You’re pragmatic in your advice, grounding it in facts and likelihood — not simply the most conservative view that assumes the worst will happen. You weigh real commercial implications, not just immigration factors.

To succeed in this role you'll also need:

• A JD from a reputable law school and a US law licence, with willingness to pursue licensing in Arizona.
• 2–5 years of US business immigration experience across visa types like H-1B, L-1, E-2, O-1 and EB-1.
• A track record of managing a busy caseload independently, accurately and efficiently.
• Real interest in bridging legal practice with technology - you'll be working alongside engineers and product managers, not just other lawyers.
• Comfort with client interactions, public presentations and occasional domestic and international travel.

Bonus points if you:

• Have advised startups, VC-backed companies or their founders on immigration strategy.
• Have worked with (or built) legal technology, automation or process-improvement tools.
• Enjoy thought-leadership work - writing, speaking or building an audience around your expertise.

Why you'll love working at Concord

• Your work changes lives, and you'll get to see it happen. It's rare to work somewhere the impact is this tangible. You'll help a founder land in San Francisco and later watch them announce their Series A. You'll help a brilliant operator relocate for the role of a lifetime, and see their journey evolve from there. The impact here isn't abstract. You can trace a direct line from what you did to a company scaling or a person's career trajectory changing for the better.
• You'll grow faster here than anywhere else. We're early-stage and scaling fast, which means you'll get exposure and responsibility that would take years to earn at a larger organisation. We prefer to stretch people into opportunities early - leadership and strategy roles open up as we grow, and we'd rather promote from within than hire from outside. You'll also have access to development opportunities across our parent company, Crimson Education, where 33% of all hires last year were internal moves. Everyone gets a $1,500 annual learning budget, direct feedback through radical candour, and no space to coast.
• We're high trust, and high ownership. Everyone at Concord holds equity through the Crimson Education ESOP scheme. When the company wins, you win. Day-to-day, that ownership mindset extends to how you work: we're office-first but flexible around the edges. If you need to shift your morning for school drop-off or block out an afternoon for focused work - that's your call. We hired you for your judgement, we're not going to micromanage how you use it.
• The people here are the reason it works. We're a small team of experienced operators, many of whom are immigrants themselves. We've sat on both sides - as the person navigating a visa process, and the one trying to hire across borders. That lived experience means we hold ourselves to a higher standard, because we know what's at stake. We're tightly collaborative, we challenge each other constantly, and everyone here is expected to contribute at the level the work demands - no bystanders.

Everyone's welcome

Concord Visa is built on the belief that moving countries should be possible for everyone. We bring that same philosophy to our own team. We welcome applications regardless of ethnicity, gender identity, disability, age, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic. And yes, for the right person, we'll sponsor your visa. We know a thing or two about that.

How we hire

1. You apply: Submit your application. You'll also need to answer a handful of questions which help us narrow down your alignment with Concord & the role.
2. Intro call (20 min): Mutual fit chat to get to know you better. We'll answer your questions too.
3. Work sample (90 min): A realistic task so you can show us how you think — for this role, reviewing and analysing two real-life immigration cases (under NDA). We'll ask you to run through the exercise and record a loom for our review.
4. Final conversation (60 min): Deep-dive on your work sample, your experience, our plans, and whether we're a good fit for one another.
5. Offer: References, then a call to talk numbers and start dates.
