Senior Legal Engineer (AI)

At Newcode.ai, we're transforming how law firms and legal professionals harness AI for real-world impact. As part of our collaborative, high-growth team, you'll have the rare opportunity to work side-by-side with visionary founders at the bleeding edge of AI and legal innovation — shaping not just our product, but the future of legal work itself.

Note: We believe in being transparent about what it's like to work at Newcode. As a fast-growing startup, we're building and evolving every day. That means not every process, playbook, or framework is already in place, and priorities can shift quickly.

The people who thrive here are comfortable with ambiguity, take ownership, and don't wait for perfect direction. They are resourceful, proactive, and able to "figure it out"—solving problems, creating structure where needed, and helping build the company as they go. If you are good with this then, great!
