About the role
Senior+ Software Engineer on the Legal Tech team building secure, auditable cloud infrastructure and data processing capabilities to support legal requirements at scale. Own end-to-end scope from requirements to production systems, collaborating with Privacy, Security, Research, Infra, and Legal to deliver compliant solutions.
Responsibilities
- Build and operate dedicated cloud infrastructure, storage, and data pipelines for specialized workloads that can't run on general-purpose systems
- Design architectures with security, privacy, reliability, scalability, and auditability baked in
- Partner with internal customer teams to translate requirements into sound approaches and realistic ETAs
- Deliver against fixed deadlines
- Support complex and novel legal requests on controlled infrastructure, with verifiable chain of custody
- Pair with engineering teams across the company to extend existing infrastructure to support new workflows and/or legal requests
- Work with nontechnical stakeholders to clarify their needs through responsive, easy-to-follow dialogue
Qualifications
- Experience designing, building, and operating highly trusted infrastructure and data systems in production, including owning architectural decisions
- Experience working across large, complex, multi-team environments, including in stacks and code you don't own
- Ability to take ownership of a cloud account and secure it end to end (networking, storage, identity, encryption, least-privilege provisioning, etc.) on AWS and/or GCP
- Ability to translate legal and privacy requirements into sound technical designs and implementations that teams are excited to adopt
- A habit of verifying rather than assuming: designing checks for invariants and plainly naming what isn't proved
- Self-directed in a high-change environment, and comfortable resequencing quickly when new needs emerge
- Clear communication with nontechnical stakeholders, and an understanding of their needs
