Cross Border Talents

Frontend Product Engineer | EU / UK

Job Description

Remote (GMT-5 to GMT+1) | Full-time | Mid-Senior
£100,000 – £200,000 + meaningful equity

About the Opportunity

We're hiring on behalf of an AI-native law firm rebuilding legal services from the ground up.

Legal is a trillion-dollar industry still operating on legacy workflows. This company is changing that by embedding AI directly into how legal work gets done — enabling lawyers to focus on judgment and outcomes, not low-leverage manual work.

Backed by $9M+ funding from a tier-1 US VC, the product is already used daily by real lawyers on real cases. Its still early — and this is a chance to shape the product foundation.

The Role

This is a frontend product engineering role focused on building the user layer where trust in AI is earned.

You will translate powerful backend and agent capabilities into clear, controllable, high-trust interfaces for legal professionals.

Think:

  • Cursor-like environments for legal work

  • Agent interaction surfaces

  • Document review workflows

  • Complex, state-heavy product UX

This is not a ticket-taking frontend role — it's product engineering with strong system awareness.

What You'll Build

  • High-trust agent interaction interfaces (chat, actions, citations)

  • Document review & editing workflows (diffs, comments, apply/reject flows)
  • Matter views, dashboards, and workflow states

  • Scalable UI patterns in Next.js + TypeScript

  • State architectures enabling rapid feature shipping

What We're Looking For

Core requirements

  • Strong hands-on experience with Next.js and TypeScript
  • Proven frontend product engineering experience
  • Experience designing scalable UI patterns
  • Strong state management experience
  • Solid understanding of backend API integration
  • Ability to translate product goals into user workflows

Strong Plus

  • Document editors, dashboards, or workflow tools

  • Early-stage startup experience

  • AI-driven or data-heavy products

  • Collaborative UI features (comments, multi-user states)

  • Legal tech or B2B SaaS exposure

Candidate Profile

You likely:

  • Think in systems, not just components

  • Care deeply about UX clarity and trust

  • Ship fast and iterate from real feedback

  • Thrive in ambiguity and early-stage environments

  • Are comfortable working closely with product and domain experts

What's Offered

  • £100k–£200k base
  • Meaningful equity ownership
  • Unlimited budget for AI coding tools
  • Annual offsite in Mallorca
  • Remote-first culture
  • Optional London or New York office access

Important Notes

  • Must work within GMT-5 to GMT+1 timezones

  • Must be able to travel to London every 5–6 weeks (expenses covered)

  • Work authorization required in country of residence

Why This Role Stands Out

  • True early-stage product impact — build from the ground up

  • AI-native product with real usage

  • Tight feedback loop with lawyers

  • Small, high-caliber engineering team

  • High ownership + high trust environment

If you want to shape the future of AI-driven legal workflows and build products used on real cases from day one, this role is built for you...
