About The Role

We are looking for an experienced front end software engineer to join our team. As an experienced team member, you will have a broad ownership, impact over the technology, the product, and our culture. You will work alongside a first-rate engineering team to design and implement exciting new features, build delightful interfaces, and enrich customer workflows.

We have plenty of exciting challenges and opportunities at all levels of the stack. We’d love for you to take ownership of features, write performant, elegant code, and make meaningful architectural decisions.

What We Value
  • Strong communication skills in a transparent environment.

  • Creating an environment of trust through well-intentioned feedback.

  • Skills to work independently and make decisions with minimal supervision.

  • Interest in working in a lively environment with dynamic objectives.

  • Individual autonomy and ownership to build quality products.

What We Offer
  • Remote-first work environment. (Engineering teams typically span UTC+3 to UTC-5.)

    • This role is best suited for someone who can work on East Coast time.

  • Competitive salary.

  • Equity-based compensation.

  • Private medical care.

  • New laptop and a work-from-home stipend for necessary accessories.

  • Generous PTO / sick leave.

  • Opportunities to lead our company as we disrupt the legal world.

About You

We're looking for engineers who have:

  • Strong overlap with Draftwise’s company values.

  • 4+ years as a professional software engineer using React with TypeScript.

  • A focus on user impact and passion for shipping high-quality product that delights users.

  • Strong ownership and autonomy.

  • Solid grasp of software engineering fundamentals.

It's also great if you have:

  • Knowledge of modern browser APIs and language features.

  • Experience with common front end frameworks and libraries.

  • Worked with elements in our tech stack:

    • Development: React, Redux, TypeScript, NextJS, Java

    • Data: Postgres, Elasticsearch

    • DevOps: AWS, Docker

  • Experience with build and infrastructure tools.

  • Interest in being involved in engineering design decisions.

  • Interest in the data products space, and a love of building tools that helps enterprise users to do more.

About The Interview

A successful candidate will go through the following process:

Step 1: Introductory call where we share more about what we are building, and to hear about what kind of work you are seeking. We may dive a bit into your resume, too. Of course, we want to give you an opportunity to ask questions! This should take 30 minutes.

Step 2: Technical interview where we will ask you to do some coding. The problem will be related to work we have done, so it will give you a taste for our product space. This should take about 1 hour.

Step 3: Take home project (~3-4 hours). This involves a more complicated problem, which helps us get a sense of how you approach adding new functionality to a pre-existing code base. Given our remote-first work environment, the project shows us what you can do independently. After you submit your solution, we will have a follow-up call to discuss it and ask about how you went about solving it.

We would love for you to meet other members of the team before you make a decision should an offer be rendered.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
