As an AI Solutions Developer, you will design and build intelligent applications that combine generative AI, data, and legal process expertise. In this role, you’ll collaborate with partners, practice-group leaders, and data engineers to turn bold ideas into real products—tools that make legal work faster, smarter, and more client-centric.
This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who thrives in the creative tension between innovation and delivery—someone who can move from concept to code, from prototype to production.
We offer a remote or hybrid work arrangement based on your preference and ability to perform effectively. While this position allows full flexibility to work remotely, we require that you live within a reasonable commuting distance of one of our offices which are located in Bellevue & Seattle, WA; Portland, OR; Los Angeles & San Francisco, CA; Washington DC and New York City.
On a typical day you will:
- Architect, build, and deploy LLM-powered applications (Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, LangChain, etc.) that integrate with firm systems.
- Implement retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, prompt-management frameworks, and secure APIs.
- Collaborate with practice-group leaders to design solutions that enhance matter intake, document automation, and client collaboration.
- Translate legal and operational workflows into elegant, maintainable code.
- Partner with IT and data teams to ensure scalability, governance, and security.
- Document standards, mentor peers, and help define De Novo’s AI engineering culture.
Join us if you have:
- 3+ years in software development with strong experience in Python, TypeScript/Node.js, or C#.
- Practical knowledge of Azure AI, OpenAI API, Bedrock, or Claude; experience with vector databases (Pinecone, FAISS, Azure AI Search).
- Familiarity with RAG architectures, prompt engineering, and model evaluation.
- Proven ability to integrate AI with enterprise systems (e.g., M365, NetDocuments, 3E).
- Comfort working in rapid-prototype environments that iterate weekly.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills—able to talk code with engineers and value with lawyers.
