Automatic AI Legal Diligence. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

The UX challenges are hard. Attorneys review hundreds of contracts with thousands of extracted provisions. Making that feel simple and trustworthy is the job.

What they're looking for

  • Design and build features end-to-end: From Figma concepts to production React components. No handoffs, no waiting, you ship the whole thing
  • Own the design system: We have a component library built on Radix UI, Tailwind CSS, and tailwind-variants. You'll evolve it as the product grows
  • Obsess over details: Micro-interactions, loading states, keyboard shortcuts, error messages. The small things that separate "functional" from "delightful."
  • Talk to users: Our users are M&A attorneys. You'll watch them use the product, understand their workflows, and design for how they actually work, not how you think they should
