Senior Software Engineer, Product Engineering

Everlaw is looking for a Senior Software Engineer with experience building and shipping user-facing software in complex ecosystems. Transforming legal tech with software and AI is a full-stack challenge that applies search, databases, data visualization, machine learning/AI, real-time collaboration, and delightful front end user interfaces to the problem space.

At our core, we enjoy the creative process of building software that is smart, works well, scales well, and is reliable and secure. We do this by supporting and empowering our team members to do their best work, by tackling challenging and complex engineering problems, and by nurturing and supporting each team member through mentoring, coaching, and comprehensive feedback.
