Why This Role Exists Filevine is the operating system for legal work. Thousands of law firms and legal teams rely on us to run cases, manage documents, and automate operations. As we scale into new verticals and deepen our AI capabilities, we’re standing up a Forward Deployed Engineering function to own the technical success of our most complex and highest-value deployments. This is a founding hire. You and one other FDE will define what this function looks like—the tooling, the playbooks, the standard of delivery. If you’ve been looking for a role where you can build something from scratch, operate with real autonomy, and work at the intersection of engineering and customer impact, this is it. The Opportunity In a given week, you might spin up a legacy database, prototype a migration pipeline, demo it to a customer’s IT team, then hand the tool off to product engineering for productization. You’ll move between codebases and conference calls, between SQL and stakeholder management. The work is varied, fast, and high-impact. You’ll also be working at the frontier of AI in legal technology. Filevine is making significant investments in AI—from intelligent document analysis and AI-assisted drafting to agentic workflow automation. As an FDE, you’ll be among the first to deploy these capabilities into real customer environments, gathering signal that shapes the product roadmap.
