What You’ll Do
- Lead and grow a team of software engineers, including hiring, onboarding, performance management, and career development.
- Own the roadmap and delivery for Autofill and Smart Workflows, balancing new AI capabilities with reliability and operational health.
- Direct and supervise every stage of the software development lifecycle, from scoping and design through release and monitoring.
- Partner with Product to turn agentic and orchestration ideas into shipped features, with clear tradeoffs and measurable customer outcomes.
- Work with principal engineers on architecture, data modeling, and the boundaries between AI pipelines and the core case platform.
- Build strong incident response and ownership practices: clear escalation paths, root-cause reviews, and fixes that remove whole classes of problems.
- Set a team operating rhythm built on written planning, documented decisions, and recorded demos, so the team works well across locations.
- Collaborate across engineering teams on shared platform dependencies, customer launches, and migrations.
- Raise the bar on engineering quality, evaluation of AI behavior, and delivery practices as the team grows.
- 5+ years of software engineering experience and 2+ years managing engineers.
- Experience shipping AI-powered product features in production, such as LLM-based extraction, orchestration, or agentic workflows.
- Comfort with the realities of AI systems: evaluation, non-determinism, data quality, and the operational load that comes with them.
- A track record of running teams that carry escalations and incidents while still delivering roadmap.
- Strong product sense and comfort making prioritization tradeoffs with product partners.
- Experience managing engineers across multiple locations and time zones.
- Clear, direct written and verbal communication.
- Bonus: experience in vertical SaaS, legal tech, or workflow and case management products.
