The roleAs a Forward Deployed Engineer at Legora, you'll sit at the intersection of product engineering and customer success - embedded directly with our most complex enterprise clients to make our AI-native platform work seamlessly in their environments. You'll write real code, solve real integration challenges, and leave behind infrastructure that outlasts your visit.
What you'll be doing- Embed with enterprise customers during and after deployment, writing production-grade code to bridge Legora's platform with their existing legal tech stack
- Own the full technical scoping process: gather requirements, design integration architecture, and deliver working solutions end-to-end
- Build and maintain reusable connectors, automation scripts, and tooling that accelerate future customer deployments
- Debug and resolve complex production issues at the intersection of customer environments and Legora's platform - often under time pressure
- Act as the technical voice of the customer internally - surface friction points, edge cases, and integration gaps directly to our product and engineering teams
- Partner with Sales and Customer Success to scope new deals and expand existing accounts where technical complexity is a deciding factor
- Work closely with Engineering and Product to deliver successful integrations and improve general product offering
Who you are- A strong generalist engineer comfortable writing backend code and working across APIs, auth protocols, and data pipelines
- Experienced in customer-facing technical roles - pre-sales engineering, solutions engineering, or embedded delivery - where you've had to own outcomes, not just hand off specs
- Familiar with enterprise integration patterns: SSO (SAML, OIDC), REST and webhook-based APIs, and document management systems like iManage, SharePoint, or NetDocuments
- Able to move fast without cutting corners - you know when to build something robust and when to ship something good enough to unblock a customer
- A clear communicator who can hold a technical conversation with an IT administrator and a strategic one with a managing partner - sometimes in the same meeting
- Comfortable with ambiguity and energised by early-stage problems that don't have a playbook yet
- Global collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Europe, APAC, and North America.
- Competitive package: Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success.
- Meaningful work: Your efforts shape how thousands of lawyers use AI daily.
- In-person environment: Union Square office designed for ambitious builders and company provided lunch daily.
