You'll be instrumental in creating intuitive interfaces that transform how legal professionals work, making sophisticated legal tasks feel simple and accessible. WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS Legal teams today are drowning in work. Our platform changes that, but only if we build it right.

IMPACT YOU'LL HAVE - Define the visual language and interaction patterns for AI-native legal workflows so teams complete reviews faster and with more confidence. - Turn ambiguous user pain points into elegant, production-ready interfaces that measurably reduce time-to-answer and error rates. - Establish a reusable design system that speeds up iteration across product, growth, and integrations surfaces. - Partner with AI + product engineering to make complex model behavior legible through clear affordances, states, and explanations. REQUIRED EXPERIENCE - 5+ years of experience in front-end development with a strong design sensibility. - Expert-level knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript, and React. - Deep experience with modern front-end frameworks (React preferred). - Strong understanding of design systems and component-based architecture. - Experience implementing complex UI animations and interactions. - Proven ability to translate design concepts into production-ready code. - Strong communication skills to effectively collaborate with both design and engineering teams. - Experience with accessibility standards and best practices. NICE TO HAVE - Experience with Framer. - Understanding of legal tech or B2B SaaS. GC AI is distributed, and engineering is our most distributed team. We hire engineers across the US and Canada. Wherever you're based, expect up to 10% travel for coworking sessions and team offsites across our hub cities. Because we work across time zones, we prioritize engineers who communicate clearly in writing and operate well asynchronously. Strong written communication is a core part of how we build. A NOTE ON PACE We’re building something new in a once-in-a-generation shift in technology and the legal industry, so we move at a relentless pace. We expect urgency, ownership, and good judgment even when things aren’t perfectly clear. If you need structure and consensus to do your best work, this isn’t the right place for you. If you thrive in ambiguity and growth, work with intensity, and want real responsibility, keep reading. We’re excited to meet you. HOW WE WORK TOGETHER GC AI is a distributed company with team members across North America, and soon Europe. We believe that because our business is AI, human connection matters more, not less. We invest in bringing people together through our hub model: regular coworking sessions, customer dinners, team and company offsites. If you’re in a location without an office, expect up to 10% travel (and more for customer-facing roles). Team members in the San Francisco Bay Area and Provo, UT (within 50 miles of the office) work together on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. As we grow, we plan to establish permanent offices in more hub cities, and we will look to our team members to help build that in-person culture. We currently hire across the United States and Canada.
