Senior Software Engineer, Platform
Quick Summary
Everlaw is evolving its release infrastructure to support a future where AI agents actively participate in deployments. We are looking for a hands-on Senior Software Engineer to build, optimize, and harden the pipelines, data models, and APIs that make this possible.
You are a builder, not just a maintainer. You prefer writing a plugin, CLI, or automation over manually clicking through a console, and you have a track record of automating away your own toil.
You'll build, optimize, and harden the pipelines and APIs that power our transition to an agent-ready release platform. In this hands-on, execution-heavy software engineering role, you will be building the release pipelines to allow both humans and AI agents to safely and consistently deploy infrastructure and application code.
Responsibilities
~1 min read- →Build agent-ready release infrastructure: Design and implement APIs, services and infrastructure that replace manual release processes. You’ll also ensure pipeline logs are in structured, traceable formats that humans and AI agents can interpret.
- →Own release infrastructure: Define and scale the infrastructure powering our builds, pre-production validation, and production deployments.
- →Automate compliance and safety guardrails: Integrate automated policy checks and audit evidence generation directly into pipelines, replacing manual human gates with tested, code-based controls.
- →Lead technical projects and mentor peers: Drive complex release engineering projects end-to-end and provide technical mentorship to other engineers on modern CI/CD and IaC practices.
- →Optimize build performance and signal quality: Improve build cache hit rates, parallelism, and resource utilization for our monorepo, while systematically eliminating flaky tests in our CI/CD pipelines.
- 5+ years of software engineering experience including significant time building CI/CD or developer infrastructure in cloud-based systems .
- Deep experience with build systems and CI/CD: Hands-on mastery operating modern CI/CD platforms like GitHub Actions, Harness, Jenkins, or GitLab.
- Strong software engineering fundamentals: Proven ability to write production-quality software, not just scripting. Proficiency in Java (or a similar statically-typed language), solid data structure and algorithms.
- Experience leading technical projects: Proven ability to break down complex architectural efforts, collaborate across teams, and mentor other developers.
- You are authorized to work in the United States. Please note that at this time, Everlaw is not sponsoring U.S. employment visas for this role.

When a lawsuit or investigation happens, teams must comb through vast amounts of electronic evidence — emails, documents, chats, files — to find what matters. That work is not a side task but the case itself, and where most of the time and money in litigation goes. Everlaw is the litigation and investigation management platform changing that, using AI to turn mountains of messy data into the handful of facts that win or lose a case, compressing weeks of work into hours.
We're the kind of place that's ranked #1 on G2 in our category and named a Great Place to Work™ by our own team. So if you want a front row seat to an industry in transformation, career-defining work you'll be proud to tell people about, and real upside at a company in control of its own destiny, we'd love to get to know you.
