With a legacy as a pioneer in the ALSP market, Factor has identified the need for another innovation in the legal services market: Integrated LawTM.

Factor is the market leader in Integrated LawTM, combining the expertise of Traditional Law, the efficiency of New Law, and the close business integration of In-house legal to deliver complex legal work at scale.

The Role:

The Innovation team builds custom client-facing software and AI-powered tools that help lawyers work more effectively. The team operates as a small, high-autonomy engineering group within a larger professional services organization. Hands-on technical lead of a small U.S.-based team that builds custom client software and AI-powered tools for legal workflows. This role splits time between writing code and guiding a small development team — the team is small enough that the lead needs to be a strong individual contributor.
