We’re looking for a sharp, ambitious engineer fluent in building AI-native products—someone who knows how to integrate LLMs, design intuitive prompt-based UX, and build around the quirks of AI behavior.

At Pincites, you’ll be responsible for the development and scaling of our web app and Word add-in, as well as new products crucial in automating contract negotiations. You’ll have a front-row seat at a fast-growth AI startup, building the future of contract negotiations.

About Pincites

At Pincites, we’re building an AI-native contract negotiation platform for legal and procurement teams. Our product lives inside Microsoft Word and helps teams negotiate faster and more consistently. It learns how top teams—like Ramp or Redis—negotiate today, then automates that workflow with AI-generated redlines and comments tailored to their playbook.

With support from top investors like Nat Friedman, General Catalyst, Liquid 2 Ventures, and Y Combinator, we’ve generated significant annual recurring revenue and serve legal teams globally. We're on a high-growth trajectory, aiming to build a billion-dollar company.

We are venture-funded, in the seed stage, and assembling a world-class team. As a member of our founding team, you’ll join us on this exciting ride with a meaningful stake in the action.

Why Legal

AI for legal represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to tap into a $300B annual market in a traditional, highly profitable vertical ripe for automation. This is a wide-open, competitive market with big gains to the winner—we want you to help us remain in front. It’s hard to imagine a world where AI doesn’t completely change how companies approach contracts, and many legal teams now have mandates to incorporate AI (a quick scroll through a few legal job postings will prove my point).

About You

As an early engineer at Pincites, you'll be building and scaling our web app and Word add-in—plus launching new AI-powered tools that automate legal workflows for thousands of companies.

We move fast, ship daily, and care deeply about quality. You’ll work directly with the founders and have a front-row seat at a high-growth startup that’s reshaping how legal work gets done.

Who you are

• You’re passionate about quality. You care about clean code, thoughtful UX, and building workflows that work intuitively
• You have great product sense. You think about users first—and how they’ll experience every detail you ship
• You’re a self-starter. You take ownership, thrive in ambiguity, and are energized by building from zero
• You’re a great colleague. You give feedback, review code carefully, and level up the people around you
• You don’t wait for orders. You see something broken or missing, and you jump in to fix it

What we're looking for

• 3–10 years building and scaling production-grade backends
• Fluent in Go (or another typed language) and SQL
• Strong with PostgreSQL (bonus: pgvector)
• Experience designing scalable APIs and backend systems
• Familiar with LLM integrations, embeddings, and vector search
• Experience building agentic workflows and AI-powered backend logic
• Willing to go full-stack when needed (with React, TypeScript)
• You write well-tested, maintainable code and catch issues early
• Expert with AI tools like Cursor and Claude Code to speed you up
• Bonus: experience with GCP and serverless infra

Why Join

• Own core product decisions from day one
• Work directly with the founders—zero bureaucracy, high impact
• Accelerate your career in a role with real scope and autonomy
• Competitive salary + full benefits (health, dental, remote-friendly)
• Join a team that ships fast, sweats the details, and actually loves building

Our Founders

We’re led by a technology and privacy attorney with extensive big law and legal tech experience. She’s a verified expert in building and implementing technology for legal teams. Her cofounder led security product teams at GitHub and was a fast-track Meta engineer. We have legal, FAANG, and startup experience nailed to a tee.
