Everlaw is seeking a Senior Engineering Manager, Platform to lead teams focused on developer experience, developer productivity, and AI-powered developer tooling, enabling engineers to ship high-quality software quickly, safely, and at scale.
You'll own roadmaps for build/test infrastructure, CI, local development environments, and developer workflows. You'll also own the strategy and execution for AI-assisted and autonomous developer tooling: evaluating, building, and deploying the tools that automate mechanical work so engineers can focus on higher-value problems.
This role sits at the intersection of platform engineering and AI. We're investing in a future where agents actively participate in our SDLC: automating test triage, lint fixes, code review, and eventually broader development tasks. That future requires a solid foundation: reliable CI, fast feedback loops, observable infrastructure, and tooling that engineers actually want to use. You'll own both sides — making the developer platform trustworthy enough for agents to run on, and shipping the AI-powered tooling that multiplies engineer output.
The Platform Engineering org is driving a multi-phase program to make Everlaw's SDLC agent-ready: from stabilizing CI reliability and developer feedback loops, to shipping autonomous agent workflows in secure sandboxed environments, to enabling agents as first-class contributors to our codebase. Your team will be a key driver of this program, working alongside Release Engineering (which owns release and deploy paths) and the AI Platform team.
Engineering is the backbone of the Everlaw Platform. We build features and functionality into the product and its supporting cloud infrastructure systems and ensure its smooth functioning. We also provide data and insights to the rest of Everlaw. At our core, we like to build and enjoy the creative process of building software that is smart, that works well, that scales well, and that is reliable and secure. We do this by supporting and empowering our team members to do their best work, by tackling challenging and complex engineering problems and by nurturing and supporting each team member through mentoring, coaching, and comprehensive feedback.
Everlaw's mission is to promote justice by illuminating truth. Our company culture is open and vibrant and we're committed to the professional growth of our team members, offering an annual learning and development stipend and regular check-ins with managers regarding career goals. If you're looking for a place that values passion, integrity, thinking big, and a desire to learn, we'd love to hear from you! Think you're missing some of the skills and are hesitant to apply? We do not believe in the 'perfect' candidate and encourage you to apply if you feel you can bring value to our team.
