Experienced/Senior Fullstack Engineer – Squad Scribe

At Doctrine, we’re building Europe’s leading legal AI platform.

Our belief? Law shouldn’t be slowed down by repetitive tasks. It should be augmented by a specialised AI, designed to understand, analyse and produce legal reasoning at the highest standard.

Our ambition? To help legal professionals work with greater reliability, efficiency and peace of mind, through a single, comprehensive and secure platform.

Today, 27,000 legal professionals across five countries (France, Italy, Germany, Spain and Luxembourg) trust us to do just that.

Our growth is guided by a clear approach: a global vision, grounded in a deep understanding of local specificities.

Behind this ambition, a team of around 250 people, united around one goal: supporting lawyers and legal professionals at every stage of their work, from research to drafting.

And we’re just getting started.

We’re looking for a senior/fullstack engineer to help us build the first legal intelligence platform.

You’ll join the “Scribe” team with a clear mission: revolutionize legal drafting (Drafting) in France, Italy, and Germany. We deploy cutting-edge solutions (LLMs) directly where lawyers and legal professionals work.

Your roadmap (3–6 months):

• Web App: Build a multi-document drafting tool and a dedicated chatbot.

• Integrations: Launch add-ins to assist daily legal drafting.

• AI & Translation: Enhance our automatic PDF translation features.

Our web tech stack is based on NodeJS, NestJS, React & NextJS.

 

You can find full details about our stack on GitHub https://github.com/DoctrineLegal/#our-tech-stack !

 

Note: Previous professional experience in law is not required, but a willingness to learn and develop expertise in understanding legal documents is important 🙂
