About 7startup's NEXUS Platform
NEXUS is a private, broker-gated B2B commercial platform connecting global deep tech supply with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 demand. We're building sovereign AI infrastructure - owned, trained, and operated by NEXUS to power intelligent contract analysis, deal structuring, and legal workflows across international jurisdictions.
The Role
You'll work directly with our Founder/CEO, AI Engineering Lead, and Product Manager to design and operationalize NEXUS's legal AI capabilities. This is a flexible 3-month remote internship where you'll own multiple workstreams:
- Sovereign Legal AI Specification: Refine and expand our MOU, NDA, and Contract AI model architectures, including jurisdiction-specific legal frameworks and guardrails
- Multi-Jurisdiction Data Collection & Training: Build training datasets and research legal patterns across UK, EU, USA, GCC, and Saudi Arabia contexts - creating the proprietary intelligence that powers our legal models
- Feature Development & Testing: Contribute to core legal AI features including entity-pairing clause matrices, jurisdiction escalation frameworks, and e-signature workflows
- Documentation & Playbooks: Create internal resources and operational playbooks for legal AI deployment
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who You Are
- Legal background (law school, recent grad, career-changer with legal focus considered)
- Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid iteration in a startup environment
- Strong attention to detail on legal language and nuance
- Excited by the intersection of AI and law
Why This Matters
You're not building another document workflow application. You're building trained, proprietary legal intelligence that will serve as NEXUS's durable competitive moat, something no other platform owns. The legal datasets you help assemble and the frameworks you help validate will become the foundation for AI-driven deal intelligence across multiple jurisdictions and deal stages.

What We Offer
- Remote, flexible schedule (3 months, adjustable commitment)
- Direct mentorship from CEO, AI Engineering Lead, and Product Manager
- Opportunity to become an in-house subject matter expert post-month 6 (pathway to deeper involvement)
- Hands-on experience building sovereign AI and legal tech infrastructure
- Portfolio-building work on a platform serving the global deep tech ecosystem
Investment Model
This is an unpaid internship. We're explicit about that. Legal AI is nascent. Most internships in this space don't exist yet. We're investing heavily in your growth. You will build deep expertise in legal AI, jurisdictional legal frameworks, and how LLMs can be trained on proprietary legal data, this is a rare opportunity to do it alongside VCs, founders and technical and product leads actually shipping the product.
