When Olivia joined Robin AI in 2021, she was just the seventh employee at what was then a small legal tech startup. Fast forward four years, and she's now the Vice President of Legal at a company that has grown to over 200 employees globally. Her journey mirrors the explosive growth of Robin AI itself which is a testament to both her capabilities and the company's success in the legal AI space.
Before joining Robin AI, Olivia worked at a fund where she was involved in a large-scale technology project. This experience opened her eyes to the transformative potential of automation, machine learning, and AI in legal processes.
"I really wanted to move into that space, especially at such an early stage," she explains. The opportunity to be part of something groundbreaking in the legal tech industry was irresistible.
After meeting Richard, Robin AI's CEO and founder, Olivia was quickly convinced to come aboard. The vision was compelling, and the timing was right for her to make the leap into legal tech innovation.
Perhaps Olivia's most significant achievement has been scaling the legal team from its initial two members to a robust team of 75 professionals spread across multiple continents.
"We now have team members across London, New York, Singapore, Australia." she says with pride.
What makes this growth particularly rewarding for Olivia is the caliber of talent she's helped bring together: "I'm never the smartest person in the room when I'm with my team, which, frankly, I love. They're a very talented and accomplished bunch, which is fantastic to work with day in and day out."
Olivia's own career trajectory at Robin AI has been impressive. Starting as a Senior Legal Specialist, she's become the VP of Legal in just four years. This rapid advancement speaks volumes about both her contributions to the company and Robin AI's commitment to recognizing and developing internal talent.
When not revolutionizing legal processes with AI, Olivia maintains an interesting life outside work. "One fun fact about me: I own three racehorses, which are all back home in Ireland," she reveals with a smile.
As Robin AI continues its growth journey, Olivia's experience, from being there almost at the beginning to helping shape its global expansion, positions her uniquely to guide the legal team through the next chapter of innovation.
Her four-year anniversary is a marker in the company's evolution from promising startup to established player in the legal AI space.
