About Gale

Gale makes getting a visa suck less. We’re disrupting the $10B immigration services market, starting with US H-1Bs. We've simplified the visa application process to a web form, streamlined compliance, and can integrate with HR systems - saving teams time, money and headaches. By using AI and automation we enable our lawyers to maintain quality but be 10x as efficient. This allows us to deliver a superior user experience, decrease costs and reduce visa turn-around times, giving us an advantage over traditional law firms.

About the role

Company Overview

We’re making it easier for U.S. companies to hire global talent and stay compliant, while giving immigrants a process that’s actually transparent, tech-enabled, and human.

Traditional immigration law firms rely on email, crusty web forms, and armies of paralegals. We use automation and AI to do everything they do 10x faster and with higher accuracy. This frees our lawyers up to work on the stuff that really matters, like helping clients and innovating new visa pathways for businesses and individuals.

We’ve already helped over 15 companies across America with their visa needs, from startups to large companies. We’re backed by top-tier VCs and assembling a lean, elite team to transform an outdated industry into something faster, smarter, and more transparent.
