## About the role

We’re seeking Founding Forward-Deployed Engineers (FDE) to serve as the technical face of Sandstone for a cohort of in-house legal teams post-sale, owning engagements from onboarding through adoption, expansion, and renewal.

## What they're looking for

- You have a demonstrated track record of entrepreneurship or of success in an unstructured environment - you’re hungry, low ego, and generative
- You have the empathy to understand what a customer is feeling and the emotional intelligence to know how to interact smoothly with them
- You’re comfortable owning senior stakeholder relationships, driving adoption, and delivering commercial outcomes in a fast-moving setting
- As a bonus, you come from the world of law—but you’ve never been content with how things have always been done
