Legal Engineer

We're Summize, the power behind every great legal team. Our contract intelligence system helps businesses everywhere work faster and smarter with their contracts, and we're only just getting started. With a $50 million Series B behind us and HQs in Manchester UK, Boston and San Diego, we're growing fast. We're looking for curious, driven problem solvers to help shape what comes next - so if that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a brilliant entry-level opportunity for a recent graduate who wants to build a career in legal tech implementation. Maybe you've studied law, business or something similar and realized the traditional route isn't for you. Or maybe you've always been drawn to where law meets technology. Either way, you'll get hands‑on experience in a fast-growing SaaS business, backed by full coaching, mentoring and on-the-job training.

Our Legal Engineers sit at the intersection of legal and technology. You'll help implement Summize for our customers by designing, configuring, troubleshooting and building solutions that improve how they handle contracts. You'll partner with our Implementation Managers to get customers up and running on time, and work directly with customer teams to deliver real, measurable value.

You'll also get deep into AI. You'll learn to engineer AI prompts for legal software, create AI tags in Microsoft Word, and become an expert in configuring AI within the Summize platform.

This is a hybrid role based in our Seaport office in Boston.
