Legl is building the operating system for modern legal services.
We help law firms and regulated businesses replace manual, fragmented workflows with intelligent software from client onboarding and compliance to payments, risk, and reporting.
Legal work is high-stake - it’s regulated, complex, and deeply impactful - and our mission is to help regulated firms grow faster, run their businesses more profitably, manage risk intelligently, and deliver great client experiences
We’re backed by leading European VCs, scaling quickly, partnered with over 600 law firms including 50 of the UK’s top 200, launched in the UK and Australia - and entering our next phase of growth.
AI is the central-operating model: not a tool or a future plan - but assumed in the way we operate.
Decisions live with people: you're trusted to make calls and own them.
Think deeply, execute quickly: speed and rigour, not speed or rigour.
We are builders. At Legl, the lines between Engineering, Product, and Design are intentionally blurred.
Senior Product Engineers don’t just “implement tickets” - they shape problems, challenge assumptions, talk to customers, make trade-offs, and stay accountable for outcomes over time. Your job isn’t to ship features; it’s to deliver meaningful product and business value quickly.
We work best when:
Ownership is individual, collaboration is intentional.
Decisions are shaped early using customer context and evidence
Feedback is fast and continuous
Process supports momentum, not the other way around
You’ll collaborate closely with Product and Design, but you’ll also be expected to independently drive work forward from vague problem statements to shipped solutions to measurable impact.
At Legl, AI is a core part of the engineering toolkit, not an experiment or a productivity hack.
We use AI deliberately to:
Enable engineers and non-engineers to move faster safely
Push beyond traditional stack boundaries
Increase leverage and reduce repeated manual work
Improve decision quality
Strong judgement matters. We care about correctness, safety, and customer trust just as much as speed. Using AI well means knowing when to use it, how to validate outputs, and where human judgement must stay in the loop.
As a Senior Product Engineer at Legl, you’ll:
Own ambiguous, high-impact problem spaces end-to-end across the stack
Shape problems collaboratively with Product and Design, grounding decisions in real customer evidence
Build, ship, and iterate with clear accountability for customer and business outcomes
Use AI, tooling, and automation to create leverage for yourself and other.
Make thoughtful trade-offs between speed, quality, and long-term simplicity
Actively enable the rest of the company by building tools, patterns, and workflows that help Legl prototype, validate, and ship faster
You’ll be trusted to make decisions and expected to stand behind them.
You thrive in autonomy and enjoy taking responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks
You’re product-centric and naturally think in terms of customer value
You’re comfortable working across the stack and stepping outside your “lane” when needed
You use AI as a core part of how you think, build, and make decisions, not just a productivity aid
You value simplicity, testability, and fast feedback
You enjoy hard problems and continuously look for better ways to build and ship software
You need tightly defined tickets, sprint planning, or heavy process to move forward
You are uncomfortable relying on AI as part of your everyday engineering and decision making
You prefer implementation-only roles with clear handoffs from PMs and Designers
You’re uncomfortable with ambiguity or owning decisions end-to-end
You’re not interested in engaging deeply with customer problems
You want structure to substitute for ownership
