We have an immediate need for a Senior Software Engineer, Product & Innovation to join our IT Solution Engineering team. This role reports to the Director, IT Solution Engineering and will play a key role in building innovative software solutions that support both internal business operations and client‑facing initiatives.

We’re a small, full‑stack team that builds custom software for the firm—internal tools, client‑facing platforms, and everything in between. There is no separate “front‑end” or “back‑end” ownership model; every engineer takes responsibility for their work from the earliest stakeholder conversations through deployment and production support.

We thrive on collaboration, autonomy, and innovation, leveraging modern development practices and AI‑assisted engineering tools to rapidly move from concept to production‑ready solutions.

We’re looking for a senior engineer who can take a product idea from two very different starting points and run with it.

Sometimes a solution concept will arrive already well‑defined through collaboration with our Legal Innovation and Business Analysis professionals, many of whom are former practicing attorneys who have already translated a business need into a technical concept. Other times, you’ll be working directly with attorneys and business stakeholders, helping shape the idea from the ground up.

AI‑assisted development is central to how we work. You’ll use modern AI development tools to accelerate the path from concept to prototype, gather stakeholder feedback, and iteratively develop impactful solutions.

This is a highly autonomous role requiring strong technical judgment, product thinking, and the ability to determine how much discovery, requirements gathering, and solution design is needed before development begins.

• Collaborate closely with Legal Innovation and Business Analysis teams to transform product concepts into working software solutions.
• Interface directly with attorneys and business stakeholders to understand challenges, gather requirements, and identify opportunities for technology‑driven solutions.
• Utilize AI‑assisted development tools to rapidly prototype, validate, and iterate on applications.
• Own projects end‑to‑end including architecture, front‑end development, back‑end development, testing, deployment, and ongoing support.
• Design, build, and maintain applications within Brownstein’s Microsoft and Azure technology ecosystem.
• Work across the full technology stack, contributing wherever project needs dictate.
• Evaluate business requirements and determine when additional stakeholder engagement is necessary to ensure successful outcomes.
• Develop scalable, maintainable, and secure software solutions aligned with firm standards and best practices.
• Participate in architectural discussions, code reviews, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Contribute to technical documentation and knowledge‑sharing efforts.
• Stay current on emerging technologies, AI‑assisted development tools, and industry best practices.
• Other duties as assigned.
