Job description
The Opportunity
The legal industry is broken — lawyers bill by the hour, charge enormous sums, and take forever to respond. This means that a lot of people who need legal advice don't get it. We're using AI to solve this problem. AI takes the first pass at everything our lawyers do, so that the lawyers can focus on human interaction. We're starting with negotiating commercial contracts, and will expand quickly from there to other use cases within legal. We're reimagining what a contract can be in the AI age. We're a veteran team, with one successful exit already, we've been doing deep learning in the legal space since long before ChatGPT.
Description
General Legal is seeking a Senior Full Stack Engineer who has the passion and drive to move fast, learn new things, and drive ambitious projects through to completion. You'll own major parts of our product end-to-end, from figuring out what we should build through architecture, implementation, deployment, and iteration with users. This is a unique opportunity to join us at the ground level and play a foundational role in developing a platform that will set new standards for the legal industry. We are looking for someone who is comfortable with ambiguity, cares deeply about product quality, and wants significant ownership rather than narrowly scoped engineering work. There will be opportunity to grow your role as the company grows, either as a senior independent contributor or as an engineering leader.
