About the role

Wordsmith is building a legal operations platform for in-house teams. This role focuses on owning and automating the onboarding, access, devices, and offboarding lifecycle end-to-end, including tooling and coding agent workflows, with hands-on work in the Edinburgh office.

Responsibilities

  • Build a joiner pipeline that reads a new hire from Humaans, creates their identity in Okta, assigns app access by group rule, and triggers zero-touch laptop enrolment in Jamf — no manual steps
  • Build a Slack assistant, backed by a coding agent, that handles requests like “I need access to X” or “my laptop is slow” and either fixes them or routes them, resolving most without a human
  • Build a hardware vending machine for the Edinburgh office that dispenses chargers, dongles, headsets and loan laptops against an employee's identity, with stock reordered automatically
  • Write scripts and infrastructure as code that configure devices, enforce security baselines, and produce compliance evidence on their own
  • Build an offboarding flow that revokes access everywhere, wipes and reclaims the device, and files the record the moment someone is marked as a leaver

Qualifications

  • You write real code and automate with APIs and scripts — Python, Bash or TypeScript
  • You think in systems: identity, access, data flows and lifecycle
  • You're comfortable using AI coding agents to build and ship tooling fast
  • You care about security and doing things properly, not just quickly
  • You're happy working on-site in Edinburgh and hands-on with real hardware
