About LawY
Join a team that's transforming how 60,000+ lawyers work every day. At LawY, you're not selling generic AI: you're helping legal professionals reclaim their time and deliver better outcomes for their clients and stakeholders. Built by lawyers (half our team are practising or former lawyers), we've spent two years listening, learning, and evolving. Now we're launching our standalone subscription, expanding from trusted legal research into drafting, contract intelligence, and matter analysis.
You'll be joining at the most exciting inflection point: we've proven product-market fit, our users genuinely love what we've built, and we're scaling a solution that lawyers actually want to adopt. No complex lock-in contracts: just month-to-month subscriptions that deliver value from day one. If you want to build something that genuinely helps people do meaningful work better, this is it.

Beyond modern web technologies, youʼll design and build cutting-edge AI backend systems, including agentic toolchains, RAG pipelines, and experimental enrichment and validation models that improve accuracy, traceability, and trust in AI outputs.
As we expand into Australia, Canada, the UK, New Zealand, and the US, youʼll play a key role in building scalable, production-grade systems that lawyers rely on every day. Your work will directly impact how legal professionals work efficiently and effectively across research and contract review, combining advanced AI capability with expert human oversight to deliver both speed and accuracy.
