Software Engineer (Full‑Stack)

About the Company

This is an AI‑native startup building advanced legal automation systems for small and mid‑sized law firms. The team recently raised a Series A, has grown revenue more than 4× in the last four months, and is scaling quickly to meet demand. With a current team of ~15, every engineer plays a defining role in product direction, culture, and technical standards.

The company's AI agents already outperform human lawyers in third‑party evaluations — this is applied AGI work, not toy demos.

About the Role

We're hiring a full‑stack engineer (1–5 years experience) who loves building, shipping, and owning production systems. You'll work across the entire stack — TypeScript, Python, React, Next.js, LLMs, agentic workflows — and ship features that immediately impact real customers.

This is a high‑agency, high‑ownership role where you'll work directly with founders, legal experts, and internal teams to build AI systems that automate real legal workflows.

What You'll Do

• Ship production‑grade features across the full stack (TypeScript, Python, React, Next.js)
• Build intuitive UI/UX for AI‑native workflows using LLMs and agentic architectures
• Prototype and iterate rapidly on zero‑to‑one features
• Own your work end‑to‑end: design build deploy monitor iterate
• Contribute to both product engineering and infrastructure
• Work closely with internal teams to understand workflows and automate them
• Help set the engineering bar and shape the culture for future hires

Must‑Haves

• 1–5 years of full‑stack or product engineering experience
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Python
• Has shipped production‑quality features at a reputable, high‑growth company (Series A+ preferred)
• Can point to something they've built and are proud of (GitHub, portfolio, personal project)
• Holds a 4‑year CS degree (or equivalent technical degree)
• High agency and reliability — able to own problems independently
• Comfortable working in‑person 5 days/week in NYC
• Thrives in fast, scrappy, early‑stage environments

Nice‑to‑Haves

• Experience at high‑growth companies like Figma, Notion, Airtable, etc.
• Experience with LLM APIs, agentic workflows, or AI‑native product patterns
• Experience building production frontend with React
• Prior startup or founding experience

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary
• 0.5%–1% equity
• Full health, dental, vision
• Visa sponsorship available (H‑1B transfers + new applications, OPT, TN)
• Relocation support to NYC

Work Environment

• On‑site 5 days/week in Manhattan
• High‑agency, high‑ownership culture
• Fast‑moving, collaborative, and product‑obsessed
• Engineers work closely with founders and domain experts
• Expectation of independent execution with minimal hand‑holding
