Background & Traction

We are currently focusing on Lawyers who draft relatively standardized but long documents, such as contracts. With only four years after our product launch, we already have more than 10,000 active paid users. We have several long-term, large-scale contracts with famed enterprises and law firms. As a result, we achieved significant success, including profitability and exponential growth, all without relying on external funding for nearly four years.

Who We Are Looking For

A technical background is not a requirement for this role. At the same time, this position offers one of the best pathways for non-technical professionals to step into the high-tech domain. If this is you, please read on!

Curiosity, learning speed, and intellectual agility matter more to us than a specific academic background. We value people who are energetic, open-minded, and motivated to explore unfamiliar problem spaces.
