Senior Systems Engineer

CaseGuild builds the industry’s most advanced evidence reasoning platform for complex litigation, helping legal teams investigate massive document sets and surface critical facts with speed and precision.

We’re a fast-growing, early-stage Seattle startup building deeply technical systems at the intersection of distributed systems, data infrastructure, and AI platforms. We operate at billions of tokens, where latency, reliability, and correctness matter. You’ll join a small, senior team that ships production systems daily, measures everything, and iterates based on real-world performance.

This role is for a systems-focused startup engineer who thinks from first principles and has built and operated large-scale production systems.

You’ve spent years designing, building, and running systems where failure modes, tail latency, throughput, and operational simplicity mattered. You enjoy reasoning about tradeoffs, performance vs. correctness, abstraction vs. control, and owning systems end-to-end while shipping at startup pace.
