Engineers at Agiloft design, build, and deploy products designed to fundamentally change how contracts are created, reviewed, negotiated, and stored. You’ll be working with a team of experienced entrepreneurs, engineers, data scientists, designers, and legal subject matter experts to build cutting-edge innovations for afast-growing scale-up company.
Things we’ve built so far:
1. A global, enterprise-scale serverless platform on AWS, deployable on demand.
2. A suite of LLM-powered applications, employing thoughtful queuing and load balancing in order to manage LLM capacity at scale.
3. An API-first development culture, with a backend serving a growing number of frontend clients.
This role will lead the design and implementation of systems that extend the core Agiloft platform into a new generation of contract review and collaboration experiences. You’ll build high-leverage connective tissue that allows emerging
products and services to plug into the platform as first-class citizens. You’ll shape how data, workflows, and intelligence flow across systems, enabling seamless end- to-end contract experiences while setting technical patterns that make future expansion fast, elegant, and scalable.
