Overview
Join to apply for the
Immigration Attorney
role at
Alma Hi there! We’re Alma. We’re on a mission to make immigration more accessible, transparent, and human through cutting-edge technology and thoughtful legal support. Alma is backed by top-tier investors like Bling Capital, Village Global, Forerunner, NFX, and Conviction, and founded by a diverse team of Harvard Law, HBS, and UCLA grads with experience at Cooley, McKinsey, EY, and Uber. Our legal team is made up of former Fragomen, Kramer, Ogletree, BAL attorneys and paralegals.
What You’ll Do
As an Immigration Attorney at Alma, you’ll wear both legal and strategic hats. You’ll guide clients through complex immigration matters (think: EB-1s, H-1Bs, O-1s, TNs, and beyond), help design better legal workflows, and collaborate closely with our product and engineering teams to build tools that transform the immigration experience.
Here’s what you can expect to spend your time on:
Providing expert legal guidance on a wide range of employment-based immigration cases (EB-1A/B, EB-2 NIW, O-1A/B, H-1B, L-1, PERM, TN, E-2, etc.)
Serving as attorney of record and drafting petitions that are persuasive, well-reasoned, and client-centered
Helping clients navigate uncertainty with clear communication, strategic advice, and deep legal knowledge
Collaborating with product, design, and engineering teams to improve our LegalTech platform and internal tools
Contributing to systems-building across templates, legal processes, and training resources
Supporting new client consultations, helping assess eligibility and recommend pathways
You Should Apply If:
You have 3–5 years of experience practicing employment-based immigration law
You’re licensed to practice law and hold a J.D. or L.L.M. from an accredited institution
You care deeply about client experience and pride yourself on being responsive, strategic, and human in your communication
You’re energized by the pace of a startup and want to help shape how legal services are delivered
You’re curious, collaborative, and excited to build new systems — not just operate within old ones
You Should NOT Apply If:
You’re looking for a traditional law firm environment with rigid hierarchies and a narrow scope of work
You prefer a clearly defined legal role that doesn’t involve product input or tech experimentation
You’re not comfortable with ambiguity — many cases fall into gray zones that require nuance and judgment
You’re not interested in building scalable legal solutions — we\’re deeply invested in systems thinking
What It’s Like To Work At Alma
We’re a small, mission-driven team reimagining immigration from the ground up. That means we value thoughtful writing, cross-functional collaboration, and building systems that scale with care. We move fast, work across disciplines, and are always learning from our clients and from each other. We’re remote-first, low-ego, and genuinely care about creating better outcomes for immigrants and their families.
Benefits & Perks
Hyper-competitive base salary range based on experience
Performance-based incentives (equity/sales commission)
100% Health coverage + Vision + Dental
20 days PTO + 10 Federal Holidays
$250 per month in wellness allowance
A front-row seat to startup growth, with mentorship from legal, tech, and business leaders
Opportunities to shape internal systems, lead on strategy, and build something new
Note
We know the “perfect” candidate doesn’t exist. If this role excites you but you don’t meet every qualification, we’d still love to hear from you. Immigration is complex. So are people. That’s what makes this work so meaningful.
