Senior Full-Stack Engineer in Juristat

We believe the key to that success is building a team of self-motivated, curious people who get things done.

“In 2012, a lawyer, a data scientist, and a software developer walked into a startup event…”

Yes, our beginnings read like the start of a joke. But in bridging the gap between the legal industry and the technology worlds, we built a suite of tools unlike any other on the market.

Obtaining a U.S. patent is a springboard to innovation. But the process can be time-consuming and expensive. We aim to remove as much guesswork as possible from the patent application process. And since 2012, law firms and corporate legal teams have trusted Juristat’s data analytics and workflow automation solutions to do just that.

Here at Juristat, we continue to work towards that bold vision for the future of the legal industry. With each new product iteration, we’re one step closer to realizing our mission – to bring more transparency, predictability, and equity to patent prosecution.

The Juristat Engineering team is a tight-knit team of highly skilled software engineers using a modern tech stack to build our industry’s leading data and analytics platform. Some of the areas you’ll be focusing your attention on are:

• Working with our product team to build beautiful user interfaces for our entire product portfolio

• Brainstorming with product managers and designers to conceptualize new features
