High-Impact Backend Role | AI-Native Legal Platform

  • Remote (GMT-5 to GMT+1 overlap) UK & EU Only | Optional hubs: London / New York
  • Full-time | Mid–Senior
  • £100,000 – £200,000 + meaningful equity
  • Our client — AI-native LegalTech company
  • Travel: London every 5–6 weeks


Work Authorization

  • Must be eligible to work in the UK, EU
  • No visa sponsorship currently specified
  • Must be able to travel to London every 5–6 weeks


About The Opportunity

Our client is rebuilding legal services from the ground up. Backed by $9M+ from a tier-1 US VC, the team is creating a Cursor-like environment where lawyers collaborate with AI agents on real legal work.

You will join a small, high-caliber engineering team growing from 2 to 5, with direct ownership over systems used daily by real lawyers.

This is a product-first backend role where reliability, safety, and extensibility are mission-critical.

What You'll Build

  • Core product APIs powering matters, documents, chats, and permissions
  • Scalable data models supporting evolving agent workflows
  • Agent-facing backend primitives enabling safe autonomous actions
  • Production infrastructure focused on reliability and observability
  • Systems that remain auditable, reversible, and correct in real legal workflows


Tech Environment

  • Python (core backend language)
  • Postgres (primary datastore)
  • Cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred)
  • API-first product architecture
  • AI-assisted engineering workflows


What They're Looking For

  • Strong production experience with Python backend systems
  • Proven API and data model design capability
  • Experience translating product goals into reliable backend architecture
  • Track record of owning systems end-to-end in fast environments
  • Comfortable working remotely with required time zone overlap


Nice to Have

  • Experience building products from zero to one or early-stage startup experience
  • Experience with Postgres at scale
  • Exposure to Temporal or background job systems
  • Familiarity with GCP environments
  • Background in collaborative or workflow-heavy SaaS


Why This Role Stands Out

  • Meaningful equity in a well-funded early-stage company
  • Unlimited budget for AI coding tools
  • Real product ownership from day one
  • Annual Mallorca offsite + regular team gatherings
  • Tight feedback loop with real legal users


Early-stage, real users, real ownership — if you build backend systems that must work flawlessly in production, we'd love to meet you...
