Frontend Product Engineer | EU / UK
Job Description:
Remote (GMT-5 to GMT+1) | Full-time | Mid-Senior
£100,000 – £200,000 + meaningful equity
About the Opportunity
We're hiring on behalf of an AI-native law firm rebuilding legal services from the ground up.
Legal is a trillion-dollar industry still operating on legacy workflows. This company is changing that by embedding AI directly into how legal work gets done — enabling lawyers to focus on judgment and outcomes, not low-leverage manual work.
Backed by $9M+ funding from a tier-1 US VC, the product is already used daily by real lawyers on real cases. Its still early — and this is a chance to shape the product foundation.
The Role
This is a frontend product engineering role focused on building the user layer where trust in AI is earned.
You will translate powerful backend and agent capabilities into clear, controllable, high-trust interfaces for legal professionals.
Think:
-
Cursor-like environments for legal work
-
Agent interaction surfaces
-
Document review workflows
-
Complex, state-heavy product UX
This is not a ticket-taking frontend role — it's product engineering with strong system awareness.
What You'll Build
-
High-trust agent interaction interfaces (chat, actions, citations)
- Document review & editing workflows (diffs, comments, apply/reject flows)
-
Matter views, dashboards, and workflow states
-
Scalable UI patterns in Next.js + TypeScript
-
State architectures enabling rapid feature shipping
What We're Looking For
Core requirements
- Strong hands-on experience with Next.js and TypeScript
- Proven frontend product engineering experience
- Experience designing scalable UI patterns
- Strong state management experience
- Solid understanding of backend API integration
- Ability to translate product goals into user workflows
Strong Plus
-
Document editors, dashboards, or workflow tools
-
Early-stage startup experience
-
AI-driven or data-heavy products
-
Collaborative UI features (comments, multi-user states)
-
Legal tech or B2B SaaS exposure
Candidate Profile
You likely:
-
Think in systems, not just components
-
Care deeply about UX clarity and trust
-
Ship fast and iterate from real feedback
-
Thrive in ambiguity and early-stage environments
-
Are comfortable working closely with product and domain experts
What's Offered
- £100k–£200k base
- Meaningful equity ownership
- Unlimited budget for AI coding tools
- Annual offsite in Mallorca
- Remote-first culture
- Optional London or New York office access
Important Notes
-
Must work within GMT-5 to GMT+1 timezones
-
Must be able to travel to London every 5–6 weeks (expenses covered)
-
Work authorization required in country of residence
Why This Role Stands Out
-
True early-stage product impact — build from the ground up
-
AI-native product with real usage
-
Tight feedback loop with lawyers
-
Small, high-caliber engineering team
-
High ownership + high trust environment
If you want to shape the future of AI-driven legal workflows and build products used on real cases from day one, this role is built for you...
