Join a cutting‑edge legal‑tech company building AI‑enhanced, cloud‑based solutions that power litigation, arbitration, and case‑management for top global law firms. Working at the intersection of software engineering, data, and applied AI, you’ll help develop a modern, scalable platform trusted by international clients.

About the Role

We’re seeking a Senior Full‑Stack Engineer to help drive the development of our data‑driven, cloud‑native digital platform. You’ll work across our stack—TypeScript, React, Python, and AI‑powered backend services—to build reliable, scalable features that shape the future of legal technology.

You’ll work closely with product, design, and platform engineering teams, contributing to high‑impact projects and system‑level improvements.

What You’ll Do

• Build and evolve distributed, API‑first SaaS applications using TypeScript, React, and Python.
• Design performant, reliable web applications and backend services that integrate with AI tools and models.
• Collaborate across teams to deliver end‑to‑end features, ensuring strong security, scalability, and maintainability.
• Contribute to architectural discussions involving microservices, multi‑tenant systems, and cloud deployments.
• Implement engineering best practices: code quality, testing, CI/CD, observability, and automation.
• Work hands‑on across the stack—no line management or people leadership responsibilities.
• Strong TypeScript experience across frontend and backend.
• Python for backend data services, automation, AI tooling, and integration with LLM‑based features.
• Experience with distributed systems or cloud‑native architectures (AWS preferred).
• Familiarity with React for front‑end development.
• Understanding of modern CI/CD, containerisation, and observability.
• Exposure to AI/ML tooling, vector databases, embeddings, RAG workflows, or LLM integration is a plus.

About You

• ~5+ years in software engineering with solid full‑stack experience.
• Comfortable owning technical work end‑to‑end without needing to manage others.
• Strong understanding of system performance, scalability, and modern cloud practices.
• Capable of making pragmatic engineering decisions and communicating trade‑offs.
• Passionate about building elegant, high‑impact software and experimenting with new AI technologies.

Why Join

• £80,000 salary + share scheme
• Hybrid working (2 days/week in Edinburgh office)
• Work hands‑on with modern tools across TypeScript, Python, and applied AI.
• High‑impact role in a growing AI‑driven SaaS platform.
