ABOUT US

Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar.

Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes.

2,100+ customers across 80+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $200M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI, Graceview, Cadastral, and Wexler.

We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law.

Joining Legora means three things.

  • We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions.
  • We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback.
  • We grow together: as a team and with our customers.

Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts.

If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place.

THE ROLE

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Customer Management Platform at Legora, you will own the systems every Legora customer account runs through — organisations, users, memberships, roles, region and storage routing — and Back Office, the control plane our operators work in every day.

You'll get real ownership across the stack, and your users sit in the same building.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

  • Own the customer account platform end-to-end: provisioning, identity and membership, and the records other teams depend on
  • Identify high-friction bottlenecks and issues in the customer related process and solve them with durable, maintainable engineering — not one-off scripts
  • Build integrations with external system to ensure seamless workflows
  • Work with a modern stack (TypeScript, Node.js, APIs, Notion AI/Serval, and cloud infrastructure) to deliver tooling that people actually want to use
  • Collaborate closely with People, IT, Operations, and Product teams to understand problems and ship solutions

WHO YOU ARE

  • An experienced engineer who is drawn to systems where correctness and blast radius matter, not just feature velocity
  • You're pragmatic and delivery-focused — you know the difference between a perfect system and the right system for right now
  • Comfortable working across the stack: APIs, integrations, automation, light frontends — whatever it takes
  • Comfortable working with our tech stack (TypeScript, Node.js, APIs, Notion AI/Serval, and cloud infrastructure)
  • Strong communicator who can translate messy operational problems into clean technical solutions
  • You have a product mindset about internal users: you talk to them, iterate fast, and measure impact
  • Experience building customer management platforms, workflow automation is a strong plus

Legora is an Equal Opportunity Employer
