Frontend Engineer

About us:

Deep Judge is Switzerland’s leading AI and ICT scale‑up, transforming how law firms and legal departments access and leverage their knowledge. Founded by former Google search engineers with PhDs in AI from ETH Zurich, and backed by top‑tier Silicon Valley investors, we are building the intelligence layer that powers the legal industry.

Every firm can license the same AI models, but no two firms share the same institutional knowledge. Decades of experience, work product, and precedent are often trapped across systems, underused and inaccessible. Deep Judge makes this expertise instantly available through world‑class enterprise search and AI infrastructure, enabling firms to automate workflows, build knowledge‑powered applications, and turn experience into a lasting advantage.

Our technology is trusted by many of the world’s leading law firms, including Freshfields, Gunderson Dettmer, Holland & Knight, Arent Fox, and Cozen O’Connor. Headquartered in Switzerland with a growing team across North America, we are expanding rapidly and shaping the future of how professional knowledge is discovered and applied.

At Deep Judge, we move fast, think rigorously, and care deeply about what we build. We combine cutting‑edge research with close collaboration with our clients to deliver solutions that truly make an impact. If you want to be part of a team defining how AI transforms high‑stakes knowledge work, this is the place to do it.

We're looking for a Frontend Engineer who combines strong technical expertise with a deep appreciation for well‑crafted UIs and seamless user experiences. You'll be instrumental in building the features that make our powerful product feel intuitive and delightful to use.

Our users, legal professionals, operate under pressure and deal with high‑stakes knowledge. Your mission is to build experiences that reduce cognitive load, guide users to the information they need, and help them fully leverage our product’s capabilities.

You’ll collaborate closely with our product team to translate vision into reality. This role goes beyond implementation. We value engineers who contribute strategic thinking about how features should work, not just how they should be built. Attention to detail matters here, from structure and architecture to animations and micro‑interactions.

You’ll have significant ownership over frontend architecture decisions and a real opportunity to shape how we build our product as we scale. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll write and ship production code daily, but also one where your voice matters in product discussions, architectural decisions, and the evolution of our design system.

We're looking for someone who brings both humility and strong opinions, someone who can advocate for their ideas while remaining open to feedback and different perspectives.
