- Steno is growing! We’re looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to join our winning team, which is revolutionizing the court reporting industry every single day. We’re a diverse team from all over the country (and beyond) and we’re crazy about redefining the boundaries of an outdated industry
- Take ownership of Steno’s analytics data model, which includes
- Designing and building dbt data models that serve both traditional batch and real-time analytics needs

Our take
Steno is a court reporting agency that offers services to legal professionals, government agencies, and businesses. As a trusted partner, Steno allows law practices to streamline their operations and work more efficiently, all while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy and reliability in its reporting services.
Steno's services are tailored to cases that can take over a year to settle. One of the company's standout offerings is the 'DelayPay' product, which enables lawyers to defer payments for critical services such as court reporting, arbitration, videography, and interpreting until their cases are concluded.
Steno has experienced substantial progress over the past few years, with a growth rate that more than tripled in 2021 alone. Steno received $15 million in a 2024 Series B round and has since begun to roll out its gen-AI-powered Transcript Genius, a tool for transcript analysis, indicating a culture of continued innovation.
