Senior Software Engineer

Deposely • Bellevue, WA

10h • Hybrid

About The Position

We are an early-stage team at the intersection of technology and law. We’re driven by a simple reality: legal work is vital to protecting everyday people, yet the industry’s tech is underdeveloped. With the rise of AI, we finally have the tools to change that. The problem we’re solving: You’ve seen it on shows like Suits where a lawyer sits across from a witness, a camera rolls, and the questioning begins. That’s a deposition. But unlike TV, the reality involves hundreds of hours of grueling preparation, manual review, and high costs. Deposely automates this workflow, saving lawyers and their clients significant time and money while improving their chances of success. While we are early stage, we are moving fast: Dozens of paying clients and hundreds of active users. Active sales motions with AM Law 200 firms. Established distribution partnerships with leading legal services companies. We’re committed to increasing equitable access to justice through programs like Deposely Essentials and the Deposely Justice Initiative. Our Tech Stack Cloud : Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Infrastructure as Code : Pulumi CI/CD: Modern pipeline tooling Languages & Frameworks : TypeScript, React (Next.js), NestJS AI Tooling: Heavy use of Cursor and Claude. This isn't just another senior role. As our Senior Software Engineer, you will be working closely with the CTO, making critical decisions on product, customers, and our technical vision. You will be expected to build and ship industry-defining features at startup speed. We are a team of ex-Big Tech engineers and senior leaders who have validated our product vision at the highest level of the legal industry. We’re looking for a partner to help us build it.
