Role Title: Media, Publishing & Communications Law Attorney
Role Type: Contractor
Location: Remote — open worldwide, provided you hold an active U.S. bar admission
micro1 is engaging experienced Media, Publishing & Communications Law Attorneys to contribute to a customer’s AI training initiative.
In this role, you’ll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.
We’re looking for attorneys with substantive experience in media and entertainment transactions, publishing rights, or FCC communications regulatory matters.
Scope of Work
- Contribute expert-level legal reasoning on media, publishing, and communications law questions, including rights clearance, licensing, and regulatory compliance.
- Work through realistic scenarios drawn from content licensing, broadcast regulation, and pre-publication review practice, explaining the analysis behind your conclusions.
- Identify where a question is unsettled, jurisdictionally contested, or turns on facts that change the answer.
- Review and validate work from other contributors for legal accuracy and clarity of reasoning.
- Document your reasoning clearly, so the analysis is as useful as the conclusion.
- Flag ambiguous or poorly framed scenarios to project coordinators instead of resolving them silently.
- Deliver assigned work on schedule and at the required quality level.
Required Qualifications
- J.D. and active U.S. bar admission in good standing.
- 5+ years of substantive media or communications law practice — hands-on, not supervisory-only or adjacent exposure.
- A corporate law foundation, ideally built at a Vault 100 firm.
How the selection process works
- Apply and complete the screening questions
- Complete the AI interview — this is how we showcase your expertise to the client
- Profile review
- Onboarding — our Talent Ops team will get you set up
