Company mission
To close the justice gap using technology and AI.
Role
Who you are
- A strong track record of shipping production systems end-to-end, and the ability to clearly explain the technical decisions you made and what you learned
- Comfortable working through ambiguity and solving problems that don’t come with a predefined solution
- Strong technical depth and the ability to dive into the details of your own work rather than speaking in generalities
- Experience with TypeScript and/or Python is a plus. Experience building AI-powered products, conversational AI, communication platforms, or SMS/compliance systems is an even bigger plus
- Around 5-8 years of software engineering experience as an individual contributor. We’re looking for builders who enjoy owning technical problems rather than pursuing people management
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our Growth engineering pod, part of a combined Growth & Agents organization building the next generation of AI-powered customer communication
- This team is responsible for the systems that power how personal injury law firms engage with clients at scale, from AI outreach agents and configurable communication workflows to a centralized communication hub spanning email, SMS, and voice
- As one of the senior backend engineers on the team, you’ll own technical decisions end-to-end, from shaping ambiguous product ideas through production
- You’ll partner closely with Product and Design, influence the direction of the platform, and help solve open-ended engineering problems where there isn’t always a clear right answer
- With a small team supporting a broad product surface, you’ll have significant ownership and the opportunity to shape both the architecture and the product itself
- Ship backend features and services across EvenUp's Growth pod - from multi-channel outreach agents to configurable communication workflows
- Own technical decisions within your scope end-to-end, from design through production
- Partner closely with Product and Design on ambiguous, evolving specs, especially around bespoke customer customization requests
- Build for low-latency, high-performance needs as usage scales
- Contribute across the team's email, SMS, and voice channel work
Our take
Every year, millions of personal injury cases in the US are resolved with only a small fraction going to trial, leaving many victims potentially under-compensated due to inaccurate settlement proposals. EvenUp aims to change this by leveraging AI technology to streamline the assessment of injury cases.
The AI tools evaluate raw case files, including medical and police records, creating tailored "demand packages" that present comprehensive compensation arguments. This improves lawyer performance and victim outcomes.
Despite concerns about AI bias and privacy, EvenUp has garnered significant investor interest, closing a funding round in 2025 that was one of the largest in the history of legal AI. Now valued at over $2 billion, it is investing in its team and introducing new techniques and products for personal injury and other legal areas.
