  • 2+ years of California employment litigation experience (recent, hands-on)

  • Experience across employment matters such as wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage and hour, and class/PAGA exposure
  • Highly organized, responsive, and able to run independently with minimal training
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced remote environment using modern legal tech
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office; Clio experience strongly preferred
  • Spanish fluency is a plus
