About the Role

You'll build the tools that fix how the world's largest asset class changes hands. We're moving property transactions away from manual document checks toward an automated AI solution that thinks like a real estate lawyer.

You won't just execute builds - you'll use your professional judgement to direct product development and shape the foundations of our next growth phase. The opportunity is real, and you'll have genuine influence over what we create.

What the job involves

  • Build and ship production software, turning ideas into reliable customer-facing features
  • Work closely with a small team of engineers to design and deliver new functionality
  • Use AI coding agents to generate, iterate and refine production-quality code
  • Work with a stack commonly including TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL and Python, reviewing and guiding code produced by AI agents
  • Contribute to technical design and implementation decisions across new features
  • Help improve engineering practices by adopting AI-assisted development and modern tooling

Who you are

  • A deep conviction that AI will reshape industries and a desire to build at that frontier
  • Evidence of reaching a high level of excellence in a professional, academic, or personal domain
  • A generalist mindset with the willingness to work across product, design, and AI boundaries
  • Experience building modern agentic systems or reasoning through complex ML products
  • A track record of working on products generating £millions in ARR with high growth
  • Rapid career progression - such as moving from junior to senior level in under five years
  • The ability to critique AI-generated output with high standards and technical taste

We especially welcome applications from people who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, or if the right role isn’t listed yet, we’d still love to hear from you.
