About the role

- Your technical contributions and team-first mindset will play a key role in delivering high-impact products that scale our AI capabilities and help global organizations simplify complex business processes.
- Participate in a supportive, iterative team culture that values curiosity, learning, and strong engineering practices
Responsibilities
- You'll work closely with engineers, product managers, data scientists, and designers to help deliver scalable, user-centric solutions that transform how legal and business teams manage their contracts.
- Take ownership of multiple functional areas in our platform - from development to production ("you build it, you run it")
- In a space often slowed by inefficient contract management systems, we provide an intelligent solution that helps businesses accelerate, scale, and safeguard operations - enabling legal and business professionals to drive strategic impact.
- Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work.
Requirements
- 12+ years of experience in professional software engineering
- 8+ years experience with a web development framework (Flask, Django, FastAPI, NestJS, Sprint Boot, Ruby on Rails, ASP.NET, etc.)
- 8+ years of experience with relational databases (such as MS SQL Server or PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (such as AWS DDB)
- 5+ years of experience leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems
- Familiarity with the tradeoffs and architecture of modern distributed systems
- Knowledge of software development best practices (DevOps, CI/CD, automated testing, observability)
- Hands-on experience with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Familiarity with Elasticsearch
- Proven success working within fast-paced, agile environments and cross-functional teams

Nice to have
- Exposure to additional programming languages like Java (backend) and TypeScript (frontend/fullstack) is a plus
