Job Description

Join a growing, venture-funded startup! We manage petabytes of data and dozens of AWS environments across multiple countries. Our clients use Everlaw to operate on mission-critical and highly confidential data and trust us to maintain a secure, performant, and resilient platform. We take this trust very seriously and are looking to hire software engineers with expertise in these areas to take our software development practices to the next level.

The Developer Experience team is on a mission to drive peak engineering efficiency through streamlined processes and efficient tools, using data-driven insights to inform developer efficiency projects. We have laid out the groundwork to improve developer efficiency, but there is more that we can do. Our company is growing quickly and we are looking to not just keep pace as a developer experience team, but to grow in delivering high-productivity developer tools.

Engineering is the backbone of the Everlaw Platform. We build features and functionality into the product and ensure its smooth functioning. We also provide data and insights to the rest of Everlaw. At our core, we like to build and enjoy the creative process of building software that is smart, that works well, that scales well, and that 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. 

At Everlaw, our mission is to promote justice by illuminating truth . Our company culture is open and democratic and we’re committed to the professional growth of our team members, offering an annual learning and development stipend and regular check-ins with managers regarding career goals.
