About this role

You'll join a small engineering team building the leading legal AI for tax & law professionals. Your work will be in front of practitioners at Big Four firms, mid-market practices, and barristers' chambers — often within hours of shipping.

Our stack is TypeScript and Python, with a React front-end, Postgres, and a retrieval layer built on top of vector and full-text indexing across legal corpora. You'll work across the stack, but we expect strong product instincts and a bias toward shipping.

What you'll do

  • Own meaningful surface area within months of joining — most engineers ship a citation-engine feature inside their first 30 days

  • Work directly with customers to understand workflows in practice

  • Make architecture decisions that span retrieval, ranking, and UI

  • Contribute to our internal tooling for the legal research team

Help us scale from 1,000+ to 10,000+ firms over the next 24 months

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years building production software

  • Strong front-end fluency (React, TypeScript) and back-end comfort (Python or similar)

  • Experience with information retrieval, search, or LLM-adjacent systems is a plus

  • Calm, considered approach to product decisions

  • Comfortable in a small distributed team where roles are loose

Nice to have

  • Legal-tech or fintech background

  • Previous Series A–B startup experience

  • Interest in or experience with legal research as a domain
