You’ll work alongside researchers, operators, and AI companies at the forefront of shaping the systems that are redefining society. Mercor is a profitable Series C company valued at $10 billion. We work in-person five days a week in our San Francisco, NYC, or London offices. ABOUT THE ROLE Enterprise agents are complex systems, and they only pay off when their work is reliable and economically viable. Evaluation is how you get both: checking correctness is the obvious case, and routing is the subtler one, since choosing a model against cost, latency, and quality requires quality to be measurable at all. Knowing where the bar sits is the hard part. You decompose real work, take the standard from the practitioners who hold it, and encode it so an agent cannot shortcut it. You will apply what Mercor has learned building benchmarks with domain experts, and devise new methods, so that evals and rubrics keep improving and so do the agents measured against them. That work only scales with a platform behind it. This is a platform engineering role with good depth of understanding in evals. You will build the verifiers, the environments agents are measured in, and the grading infrastructure that runs at scale, abstracted across customers, domains, and tasks so that every run becomes evidence the next agent inherits instead of starting over. Read more about how we think about this: Agent Eval Systems https://www.mercor.com/blog/agent-eval-systems/ RESPONSIBILITIES - Define golden sets: decompose real tasks and encode the expert quality bar. - Build verifiers over agent trajectories and outputs, calibrated and hard to game. - Build the eval platform that runs offline environments, task suites, and grading at scale. - Run loss analysis over production trajectories and turn failure modes into regression tests. - Run the optimization loop across models, prompts, skills, and harnesses. - Own the rollout gates that decide whether an agent change ships. - Partner with the Enterprise Platform team and the Applied AI engineers embedded with customers. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - Professional, academic, or research experience in agent engineering and evaluation, including how agent runtimes and harnesses produce a trajectory and where it fails. - Experience building evaluation suites for LLM or agent systems, and familiarity with how benchmarks such as terminal-bench, tau-bench, and APEX are constructed and where they get gamed. - Judgment about task and rubric design: turning a fuzzy notion of quality into something measurable, with agent or model improvements to show for it. - Strong software engineering fundamentals, and the ability to work independently on ambiguous, loosely specified problems. - Bonus: experience with Harbor environments and RL environments. WHY MERCOR - Impact: No agent reaches an enterprise customer without clearing the bar you set. - Learning: Eval work spanning frontier model measurement and live enterprise deployments, on production trajectories few teams get to see. - Growth: Research and systems in one role, with fast paths to owning the eval system end to end. BENEFITS - Up to $15k relocation bonus - $10K housing bonus (if you live within 0.5 miles of our office) - $1.5K monthly stipend for meals - Generous equity grant vested over 4 years - Free Equinox membership - $200 monthly laundry reimbursement - $200 monthly personal wellness reimbursement - Health, Dental, Vision insurance

Infrastructure Engineer, AI Tooling
WHAT MATX IS BUILDING MatX's mission is to make the world’s best AI models run as efficiently as allowed by physics, bringing the world years ahead in AI quality and availability. We build custom silicon for training and running the world's largest AI models, with hardware/software co-design across ISA, RTL, simulator, compiler, and kernels. The AI tooling team sits across that whole stack and owns the agent harnesses and shared workflows that turn general-purpose coding agents into ones maximally useful on each layer. ABOUT THE POSITION Every engineering team using coding agents sits somewhere between watching every command and waking up to agent-written PRs waiting for review. What moves teams along this trust curve is how far engineers can trust their agents' judgment. An agent's judgment is only as good as its context and its ability to verify its work. However, context can be spread all over (think repos, design docs, Slack threads); the builds and simulations an agent needs to check its work may only be available on machines it can’t reach. You'd build infrastructure to address these gaps, at a company small enough your work reaches every engineer. WHAT YOU'LL DO HERE: - Make agents legible, first-class users of our infrastructure. Each one gets an identity of its own, reaches exactly what its task needs and nothing else, and leaves a trail a person can later audit. - Build environments for our agents to run in, e.g. short-lived VMs that exist for one task and no-egress sandboxes for long runs. - Build our company agent knowledge base, the context agents start tasks with and the place they go to get more. Pull together information spread across our monorepo, design docs, and Slack and structure it for agent consumption. WHO YOU ARE: - Have run production infrastructure somewhere dynamic and know which shortcuts you’ll regret. - Use coding agents heavily and have strong opinions on what you let them do, what you don't, and how you verify their work. - Built engineering workflows (methodology, flow automation, review tooling, agent harnesses) that other engineers adopted and kept. - Notice LLM agents asserting something confidently wrong and modify their harness in response. BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE: - Have operated Bazel remote execution or a remote cache. - Are familiar with sandboxing and ephemeral compute for untrusted workloads.

You'll define which customers and workflows to pursue, spend 30–40% of your time embedded with forward-deployed teams in live customer work, and build agentic products, not traditional SaaS. It needs a senior, highly autonomous PM who's genuinely AI-fluent. If you need scaffolding and clear directives, this won't fit. What You'll Own - Define product opportunities across enterprise segments — customer profiles, workflows, jobs-to-be-done, and unmet needs in marketing, advertising, and entertainment. - Translate Luma's models, Canvas, Agents, and APIs into clear product definitions that serve real commercial customers. - Drive cross-functional execution across research, product, engineering, go-to-market, and forward-deployed teams in a pod structure. - Partner directly with enterprise customers in meetings to validate opportunities and shape direction. - Bridge market signals back to research so model prioritization reflects real commercial needs. - Build agentic products that generate revenue now and scale, operating with a GM mindset on commercial viability. First 90 Days One way the first 90 could unfold. - Days 1–30 — Immerse & Diagnose: Learn the models, the enterprise verticals, and the highest-value workflows. - Days 30–60 — Ship & Validate: Define and validate an enterprise product opportunity in live customer work. - Days 60–90 — Scale & Systemize: Turn a bespoke win into a product that scales to more customers, with feedback loops to research. What You Bring - Staff or Principal-level PM experience building enterprise products in high-ambiguity environments. - Built successful enterprise AI applications, especially agentic products with real adoption, not just SaaS. - Functional AI/ML fluency: reasoning about capabilities, evals, latency/cost trade-offs, and fine-tuning vs prompting vs tool use. - Effectiveness across product, engineering, research, go-to-market, and customer-facing teams. - A general-manager mindset with P&L experience, thinking in business trade-offs and revenue. - Very high agency and self-starter mentality (the top trait here), plus consultative PM skill with customers. - A mix of large-company and earlier-stage experience. Nice to Have - Experience on multimodal model teams and products. - Domain exposure in marketing technology, brands, advertising, or entertainment. - Founder-type background. - Experience at enterprise AI companies (Harvey, Sierra, Decagon, Glean, Clay) where customer-embedded PM is the operating model. - A clear sense of the difference between a demo that wins a pitch and a product that runs in production. About Luma: Luma's mission is to build unified general intelligence that can generate, understand, and operate in the physical world. We believe multimodality is critical for intelligence — the next step beyond language models comes from vision. Luma is an equal opportunity employer.

Senior Director, Software Development, Test Automa...
Your Impact at LILA The Role We're hiring a Senior Director, Software Development, Test Automation Systems to architect and build Lila's test automation platform and quality engineering practice for our AI-powered scientific and lab automation products. Reporting to the VP of Engineering, you'll own the test automation system, CI/CD test infrastructure, AI-driven test tooling, and the eval discipline that hold the bar across our SDLC. This is a builder-leader role. You will drive the quality vision, write requirements, make sharp build-vs-buy calls, drive execution, and build and lead a small (3–5 person) team that delivers leverage. The operating model is federated: you own the platform, standards, and metrics; engineering teams own test execution. You scale through tooling and influence. As you scale into this role, you'll also stand up the QC framework for our lab automation system — the validation patterns, harnesses, and contracts that science operations teams will operate day-to-day. Data integrity and ALCOA+ compliance are foundational to everything you build. What You'll Be Building What You'll Do Architect and ship the test automation platform - Design and build the test automation platform — frameworks, fixtures, golden datasets, test orchestration, and reporting — that the engineering org adopts by default - Set standards across unit, integration, contract, end-to-end, regression, performance, and chaos testing for backend services, the frontend monorepo, and data pipelines - Treat platform adoption, flake rate, and time-to-signal as first-class engineering metrics Make build-vs-buy decisions with conviction - Own the buy/build/borrow strategy across test infrastructure, eval platforms, browser/device clouds, observability, and lab QC tooling - Justify every choice with TCO, signal quality, integration cost, and time-to-leverage — and revisit decisions as the org and tech landscape evolve - Bias toward leverage: buy commodity capabilities, build the differentiators (Lila-specific AI evals, lab QC, scientific data integrity) Modernize CI/CD for fast, reliable signal - Own the test execution layer of CI/CD: parallelization, caching, hermetic environments, ephemeral preview envs, and affected-only test selection across our Nx monorepo/microservices. - Build retry, quarantine, and impact-analysis systems so signal stays sharp as the org scales - Drive change-failure rate, MTTR, Test effectiveness, pipeline efficiency, coverage, and PR-to-prod lead time as outcomes Drive AI-driven test automation - Apply LLMs across the full test lifecycle: test generation from specs and PRs, self-healing UI tests, synthesis, visual regression with vision models, and AI-assisted failure triage - Validate every AI-generated test through evals — no LLM-authored test ships without proof it doesn't degrade signal - Establish the eval discipline for Lila's AI/agent stack: golden datasets, rubrics, regression suites, offline + online evaluation pipelines Define and operate the quality metrics system - Define quality SLOs and adoption metrics by team and service: coverage, escape rate, MTTR, change-failure rate, eval pass rate, lab QC violation rate - Build dashboards that make quality visible from PR to executive review - Apply Google SRE practices to prioritize where investment goes Mid-long term - Stand up the QC framework for lab automation - Design the validation framework, harnesses, and contracts that lab and Science Ops teams will operate - Embed ALCOA+ principles: data integrity, audit trails, lineage from sample → instrument → output - Partner with Research Ops on pre-flight, in-flight, and post-flight validation patterns for autonomous lab execution Lead and coach across the engineering org - Build a 3–5 person team of test automation engineers focused on platform leverage, not on writing tests for other teams - Coach engineering teams on test design, quality investments, and adoption — make it cheaper to test well than to ship blind - Translate UX and customer issues into testable contracts and platform improvements First 6–12 Month Outcomes - First 90 days: Establish baselines — flake rate, time-to-signal, change-failure rate, coverage, and current build-vs-buy footprint — and publish a quality scorecard with the first set of SLOs. Hire or onboard the initial 1–2 platform engineers. - By 6 months: Ship v1 of the test automation platform adopted by at least one flagship engineering team by default; land CI/CD test-execution improvements (parallelization, affected-only selection, flake quarantine) with measurable time-to-signal reduction. Stand up the eval discipline (golden datasets, rubrics, regression suites) for the AI/agent stack. - By 12 months: Drive default platform adoption across the engineering org; demonstrate AI-driven test automation in production with eval-gated rollout. Deliver the first operating version of the lab automation QC framework with ALCOA+ audit trails, validated end-to-end with Science Ops. Quality is visible from PR to executive review via live dashboards. What You'll Need to Succeed Required Qualifications - 10+ years in software engineering, with 5+ years leading test automation, quality engineering, or platform/SRE-adjacent functions - 3+ years managing engineers, including building or scaling a team - Strong software architect/engineer. You write designs your team wants to read and review. Python and/or Typescript hands on expertise is highly desirable. - Deep CI/CD expertise. GitHub Actions or equivalent at scale, monorepo build/test orchestration (Nx, Turborepo, or Bazel), test parallelization and caching, hermetic environments, ephemeral preview envs, flake quarantine, and test impact analysis - Demonstrated build-vs-buy judgment. You've made and defended decisions on test infra, eval platforms, browser/device clouds, and observability — and can articulate the TCO and signal trade-offs that drove them - Hands-on AI-driven test automation experience. Using LLMs to generate, maintain, or triage tests in production, with rigorous eval validation. Fluency with eval frameworks - Track record of standing up a test automation platform that engineering teams adopted — not one bolted on - Working knowledge of Google's SRE practices and a point of view on when they apply to pre-production quality - Metrics-driven leader who drives outcomes through platform leverage and influence, not gatekeeping - Customer- and UX-first instincts: treats test automation as a vehicle for user experience, not a cost center Bonus Points For Nice to Have - Experience in GxP-regulated environments or scientific data integrity programs - Experience with lab automation, LIMS, or other instrument-driven systems - Multi-tenant SaaS quality at scale - Exposure to event-driven systems, agent orchestration frameworks, or MCP - Performance/load testing or chaos engineering background Compensation We offer competitive base compensation with bonus potential and generous early-stage equity. Your final offer will reflect your background, expertise, and expected impact. U.S. Benefits.

What We're Looking For We're hiring a data-driven People Operations specialist to build the AI-native People Ops organization Lightning AI runs on. Most companies buy six HR tools and then spend three years stitching them together. We're not doing that. We're building a tailored People operating system in-house that “just works”, including automated workflows for hiring, onboarding, and agentic employee and manager support as products. You'll be reporting to the Head of People Ops, where you'll find the problems, design the fix, and ship it to production while creating a best in class employee and manager experience. We are a small but mighty, high-velocity, and talent-dense team. We value extreme ownership and low-ego collaboration, living by “shipped is better than perfect”. What You’ll Do In one sentence: build, ship and administer People workflows, systems and solutions that make Lightning run better. This is the core of the role. - Design secure systems with role-based permissions and appropriate data access. People data is some of the most sensitive data in the company; access control is a first-class feature, not a later hardening pass. - Build agents, workflows, dashboards, and decision-support tools that help the People team, managers, and leaders make better decisions faster. Own day-to-day People Operations administration across the employee lifecycle, including onboarding, offboarding, employee changes, HRIS updates, documentation, and employee data management. - Support payroll and benefits administration, including employee changes, audits, reconciliations, enrollments, and resolving employee questions and issues. - Serve as a point of contact for employee and manager questions across pay, benefits, leave, policies, systems, and other People programs, partnering with the broader People team on escalations when needed. - Keep our People data and systems accurate and reliable through regular audits, data cleanup, documentation, and process maintenance. - Support recurring People programs and operational cycles, pitching in wherever needed to keep the function running smoothly. - Partner with the broader People team to identify, scope, and ship internal solutions end to end—from research and design through implementation, deployment, and iteration. - Build and maintain integrations, reporting, and automated workflows across our People systems. - Build solutions that meet legal and compliance requirements for handling employee data across multiple jurisdictions. What You’ll Need - A demonstrated People Operations specialist with strong product instincts and real experience building secure automated solutions for historically manual tasks: - 4+ years of experience in Tech with holistic People Operations service delivery and administration plus tier 0 / 1 / 2 employee and manager support. You've built or worked deeply on the systems behind it: knowledge bases, case management, ticketing and routing, SLA and quality measurement, escalation paths, deflection. You understand why a Tier 2 employee relations case needs different handling from a Tier 1 password reset, and you can build for both. - Experience with people data, business systems, analytics platforms, or enterprise data infrastructure (BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, SQL, Excel). - Deep familiarity with HRIS and / or ATS platforms (Rippling, Greenhouse, Ashby, or similar), as a builder or through close partnership with People teams. - Experience designing secure systems with role-based access control and data permissioning. - Strong product instincts. You think end to end, ask why, and care whether the thing actually gets used. - Excellent stakeholder management and demonstrated cross functional partnership with Finance, Legal, and IT. You can turn a multi-team operational mess into a technical solution without needing a roadmap handed to you. - Experience building processes and products from scratch and taking them to production. Nice To Have - Agile familiarity with Anthropic / OpenAI, and AI agents - Experience with Rippling, Greenhouse, Ramp, Carta, Pave, or Tilt We are committed to offering competitive compensation that reflects the value each team member brings to our mission.

Software Engineer, Agent Harness
SOLVING SELF-IMPROVING SUPERINTELLIGENCE The human brain is a sponge. Today’s AI brains are brittle and rigid. At Letta, we’re building self-improving artificial intelligence: creating agents that continually learn from experience and adapt over time. Founded by the creators of MemGPT from UC Berkeley’s Sky Computing Lab (the birthplace of Spark and Ray). Backed by Jeff Dean, Clem Delangue, and pioneers across AI infrastructure. Our agents already power production systems at companies like 11x https://www.letta.com/case-studies/11x and Bilt Rewards https://www.letta.com/case-studies/bilt, learning and improving every day. We’re assembling a world-class team of researchers and engineers to solve AI’s hardest problem: making machines that can reason, remember, and learn the way humans do. Note that this role is in-person (no hybrid), 5 days a week in downtown San Francisco. We are building the developer stack for agents that can run in production applications, not just demo notebooks. As a Software Engineer, you will bridge the gap bleeding-edge agent systems and production-grade software for running agents in real applications. You will help define developer APIs for agents, and lead development of our company’s OSS stack as well as the hosted service. Responsibilities: - Develop Letta's OSS agents framework and cloud service - Design scaleable & resilient backend services and APIs to support Letta Cloud - Work with researchers and support bleeding-edge agent architectures in Letta Required skills: - Strong proficiency with Python - Strong understanding of how to architect services for security, reliability, and performance - Ability to build scaleable backend services - Strong understanding of SQL databases (Postgres) - Familiarity with tooling across the AI stack, such as inference engines (e.g. vLLM, Ollama), and LLM provider APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic) - Bonus: proficient with TypeScript, React, Tailwind, etc. (the modern stack for web applications) OUR CULTURE SIGNS IT COULD BE A GREAT FIT: - You want to maximize your impact: you want work on a small, incredibly talented team where every individual plays a huge role in the team's success. You wonder what it would have been like to be at OpenAI when it was just a dozen people, or Google when it was just a couple of grad students in a garage. - You’re excited to go head-to-head with tech giants, frontier labs, and other startups that are many times our size in both headcount and funding. - You are fundamentally opposed to closed frontier AI that is controlled by a handful of billionaires and private tech companies. SIGNS IT’S A BAD FIT: - You like stability, and get stressed out when there’s nobody telling you exactly what to do. We look for people that thrive in ambiguity and can intuit the most important problems by talking to customers and dogfooding our product. - You want to work a 9-5, and value clear separation of work from life. The stakes are the highest they've ever been, and the only moat is execution velocity. Operating on a strict 9-5 guarantees failure. - You value titles or want to people-manage. Letta is a flat company where every researcher and engineer is an individual contributor. OUR INTERVIEW PROCESS: - Initial screen (30 min) - Technical screen (1-1.5 hours) - Paid in-person work trial (2 days onsite in SF)
SaaS Enablement & Governance Lead
ABOUT US Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar. Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes. 2,100+ customers across 80+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $200M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI, Graceview, Cadastral, and Wexler. We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law. Joining Legora means three things. - We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions. - We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback. - We grow together: as a team and with our customers. Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts. If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place. THE ROLE We are hiring our first SaaS Enablement & Governance Lead to own the lifecycle of Legora's entire SaaS and AI portfolio, from enterprise platforms down to the tail of team-level and expensed purchases: intake, renewal, decommissioning, and everything between. You'll be based in our New York office, reporting to the Head of IT. Procurement works the strategic head of spend. This role is the oversight layer across all of it: the ~90% of applications that never reach a sourcing process are where risk and sprawl accumulate, and they are yours. We build AI for lawyers, and we hold our own software estate to the bar our customers hold us to. You'll partner with FP&A, Procurement, and Security, and run the function the way an AI-native company should: agents and automation do the repetitive work, your time goes to judgment. Whether that runs on a commercial platform or tooling you build with LLMs and agents is your call to make and defend. What You'll Do Software & AI asset management - Own the single source of truth for every SaaS and AI application: licenses, entitlements, owners, integrations, and dependencies, kept current by automated discovery. Security's supply-chain-risk program builds its dependency and criticality map from this record, one inventory, two lenses. - Track utilization against entitlements, reclaim inactive and duplicate licenses, and rightsize the portfolio against explicit cost-avoidance targets. - Hunt down shadow IT and shadow AI, expense-report purchases, self-serve signups, free-tier tools, and bring each one under management with an owner, a risk posture, and a renewal date. - Manage usage- and token-based pricing, and forecast the volatile AI spend that per-seat license counts miss. AI tool governance - Own the commercial and governance substrate for AI tools, the sanctioned-vs-restricted catalog, licensing, and spend. AI Enablement drives adoption and training; Corporate Security enforces the technical guardrails. - Enforce AI vendor terms commercially, training-on-data, data retention, confidentiality, and model-change clauses in contracts and renewals, with risk and compliance review owned by Security and Legal. - Build agentic workflows for the function itself (discovery, license reclamation, renewal tracking, provisioning), with a human in the loop where judgment demands it. Anything manual twice a quarter gets automated. Vendor management - Own software and SaaS vendor relationships as an engineering-level partner: roadmap input, escalations, SLAs, and performance reviews. (Hardware, AV, and physical-site vendors sit with Workplace Technology.) - Build and run a single front door for software and AI requests: paved paths that encode security, privacy, and spend policy, so the sanctioned route is also the fastest one. Risk assessment routes to Security's supply-chain-risk program, whose requirements gate adoption. Renewals, cost optimization & FinOps - Own the renewals calendar across the full portfolio; forecast and surface renewals well ahead of deadlines so nothing auto-renews by default. - Partner with Procurement on strategic, high-spend negotiations; own commercial terms and true-ups across the long tail yourself. - Run FinOps for software and AI spend: consolidate overlapping tools, retire what isn't used, and execute decommissioning, contract wind-down, license teardown, access removal, with Security verifying risk closure on critical vendors. Configuration, integration & identity - Manage SaaS configuration as code where possible, auditable and version-controlled, remediating operational drift, with security posture findings owned by Corporate Security. - Build integrations against SaaS APIs where they serve the governance loop: discovery, utilization data, reclamation, and provisioning. - Onboard every application to SSO and SCIM as part of intake, and drive license reclamation from joiner/mover/leaver signals, on the identity platform Corporate Security owns, supplying the data for access reviews that Security runs. Governance, security, compliance & reporting - Own SaaS-related SOC 2 evidence and third-party application governance as the system owner. - Report utilization, savings, renewal pipeline, AI spend, and compliance to IT leadership and Finance, one number set that FP&A, Procurement, and Security all work from. What You Bring - 5+ years in software/SaaS asset management, IT vendor management, business systems, IT/enterprise applications, or IT procurement, with clear ownership of license and vendor work. - Cost optimization: a track record of license rightsizing, renewal negotiation, tool consolidation, and measurable savings. - Commercial fluency: comfortable owning negotiations and reading licensing models, including consumption/usage-based and AI pricing, true-ups, and contract terms. - Portfolio tooling: has run SaaS discovery, utilization, and license management at scale (commercial platform, pipelines they built, or both), with grounded opinions on when to buy and when to build. - Automation & integration: builds with LLM/agent workflows, iPaaS, and scripts against SaaS APIs (e.g., Python), and uses AI tools daily in their own work. - Identity governance: SSO/SAML/OIDC and SCIM (Okta or Entra) and how access drives license consumption. - AI-era judgment: has evaluated and governed AI tools and can read AI-vendor data terms. - Analytical & cross-functional: builds utilization and forecast models, and partners credibly with Finance, Procurement, Security, and tool owners. Nice to have - Experience at a legal, financial, or otherwise regulated / high-trust company. - Has stood up a FinOps practice; exposure to procurement and finance systems (Zip, Coupa, NetSuite, Workday/Adaptive). - Built process and tooling from scratch at a fast-scaling company. - Certifications: ITIL, FinOps Certified Practitioner, or ServiceNow CIS-SAM. WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU - 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. - Benefits & Perks: We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed benefits package: Medical, Dental & Vision - Multiple medical plan options through Aetna and Kaiser Permanente - HSA or Healthcare FSA (based on plan selection) - Dental plans via MetLife - Vision plans via Vision Care Family Support - Generous parental leave - Free access to Maven Clinic - Dependent Care FSA - Free One Medical membership for employees and dependents Additional Perks - Pre-tax commuter benefits - Life Insurance + STD/LTD - 401(K) with generous company match - Unlimited PTO - Robust voluntary benefits, including identity protection (via Aura), legal coverage via MetLife, pet savings programs, and more Legora is an Equal Opportunity Employer At Legora, we believe great teams are built on diversity of thought and experience. We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and committed to creating an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work.

GRC Engineer

ABOUT THE ROLE You will build the platform Legora’s assurance program runs on: pipelines that collect evidence continuously, checks that enforce policy in CI/CD, and agents that test controls and draft audit responses. The GRC Lead owns the program and the judgment calls; you own the machinery that turns certifications into an output of normal operations. You will sit in the Security organization and work daily with the GRC Lead, Engineering, and Corporate Security. This is an engineering seat with a compliance domain, and it exists because we sell AI agents to law firms: proving how our systems behave is part of the product. WHAT YOU’LL DO Evidence & controls platform - Build the pipelines and integrations that aggregate control, asset, and identity data across our stack (cloud, IdP, HRIS, source control, CI/CD) and turn it into automated checks, live dashboards, and audit evidence. - Implement the unified controls library so one control satisfies many frameworks, with evidence collected once and mapped everywhere. - Ingest from what partners already own — Corporate Security’s technical controls, the SaaS portfolio’s system of record — rather than building parallel collectors; system owners keep their evidence, your platform makes it audit-ready. - Build the technical evidence base for our AI certifications (ISO/IEC 42001 and emerging AI-agent assurance standards): agent action logging, evaluation evidence, tool-call restrictions, and failure-mode documentation, working with Product and Engineering. Continuous assurance & agentic workflows - Translate written policies and regulatory requirements into enforceable rules: automated checks in CI/CD and infrastructure deployment, continuous controls monitoring, and drift alerts routed to owners. - Instrument control effectiveness so the GRC Lead reports risk posture from live data. - Design and run agentic workflows for evidence analysis, control testing, and audit response preparation, with a human in the loop where assurance demands it. Anything manual twice a quarter gets automated. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR - 6-8+ years spanning software or automation engineering and security compliance — an engineer who learned GRC, or a GRC operator who became a builder. - Production-grade scripting (Python or similar) against APIs — code you ship and own. - Hands-on experience building LLM/agent workflows and daily use of AI in your own work, with grounded judgment on what to delegate to agents, what needs a human, and how to evidence both to an auditor. - Enough GRC domain fluency to work inside SOC 2 / ISO 27001 control language and know what an auditor will accept as evidence. - Clear technical writing — your evidence and documentation will be read by auditors and customer security teams. NICE TO HAVE - Experience with compliance platform APIs and when to build past them. - OSCAL or other machine-readable control/catalog formats. - Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or similar) and CI/CD pipeline engineering. - Prior work on AI product assurance: evals, red-teaming evidence, or model/agent documentation. WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU - 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. - Benefits & Perks: We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed benefits package: Medical, Dental & Vision - Multiple medical plan options through Aetna and Kaiser Permanente - HSA or Healthcare FSA (based on plan selection) - Dental plans via MetLife - Vision plans via Vision Care Family Support - Generous parental leave - Free access to Maven Clinic - Dependent Care FSA - Free One Medical membership for employees and dependents Additional Perks - Pre-tax commuter benefits - Life Insurance + STD/LTD - 401(K) with generous company match - Unlimited PTO - Robust voluntary benefits, including identity protection (via Aura), legal coverage via MetLife, pet savings programs, and more Legora is an Equal Opportunity Employer At Legora, we believe great teams are built on diversity of thought and experience. We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and committed to creating an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work.
