Strong attention to detail and spidey sense for where and when things could go wrong

What the job involves

As a Software Engineer on the Infrastructure team at Harvey, you will build and maintain the infrastructure for serving our legal AI platform at scale
Build and deploy a globally-redundant distributed system with 1000+ servers (using Kubernetes and 20+ other tools/services), emphasizing reliability
Scale our infrastructure to handle billions of requests and petabytes of data per month, spread across thousands of data stores (SQL DBs, vector DBs, cloud storages, caches)
Ensure our infrastructure adheres to NSA-level security constraints
Debug production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack
Enable the engineering organization to move faster by setting up standards, tooling, and processes

Our take

The explosive popularity of generative AI tools has seen specialized solutions popping up for all kinds of industries. Hoping to help supercharge efficiency and productivity for legal teams, Harvey supplies Gen AI that can assist with documentation, as well as aid research and optimize workflows.

Via natural language instructions, Harvey helps draft and analyze legal documents. It can also answer complex questions across large document sets, or even handle research queries that cover multiple domains in legal, regulatory and tax.

Its ability to support legal practitioners as if it's another member of the team is what makes Harvey particularly interesting. This approach has seen the company raise substantial funding, reaching Unicorn status in 2024. Funds will be used to expand to new geographies, grow headcount and further collect and curate data to train more “domain-specific” AI models.
