Legal Engineer Application

Help build what legal tech becomes next.

We’re looking for a small number of legal engineers in Scottsdale, Phoenix, and Tempe, Arizona to help us design this around the people who’ll use it.

People reading contracts.

People working through litigation material.

People trying to get through their workday with less friction, less confusion, and a little more ease.


Legal engineer is a broad new position.

You might come from law.

You might come from legal tech.

You might build systems.

You might work with contracts, litigation, legal operations, product, data, or software.

The title matters less than how you think and whether you care about making the experience better for the person on the other side of it.

What you'll work on

The first focus is Jargonee’s legal-language work, especially contracts and litigation.

You’ll use what we’re building, stress-test it, find where it misses, challenge how it works, and help us decide what users would appreciate next.

We’re looking for people who can look at something, understand it quickly, tell us exactly what works or doesn’t, and help move it forward.

The end user is the center of this.

If something makes their work easier, clearer, faster, or less frustrating, we want to know.

If something gets in their way, we want to know that too.

What we need from you

Initiative. See something that can be better? Say it. Better yet, show us.

Innovation. We’re not interested in reproducing the same legal-tech patterns with a different adjective.

Directness. You cannot hurt our feelings.

If something is bad, say it’s bad. If something is confusing, say why. If you have a better idea, bring it.

The goal isn’t simply to agree. The goal is to find what benefits the users and the experience.

Clarity. Explain things crisply, cleanly, clearly, and quickly.

No ten-minute answer when thirty seconds will do.

Get to the point.

Action. Analysis matters. Endless analysis does not.

Think. Decide. Test. Move.

Bonus. If you can flat out say, “That is a terrible design. No user would like that,” and then immediately follow it with a better solution, even better.

Bad user experience? Say it.

Bad design? Say it.

Then tell us how you would fix it and why.

That is how we like to operate.

Directly.

We build for the users, our feelings can wait.


What you get

You’ll receive free access to Jargonee and the products and systems we make available to this group through Resonance Labs.

Current products.

Future products.

New systems as they become available.

The trade is simple:

We give you access.

You give us some of your time, your perspective, and feedback that is direct, useful, and impactful.

This is local.

For this group, we are only accepting people based in:

Scottsdale, Arizona

Phoenix, Arizona

Tempe, Arizona

Silicon Oasis said it best. Uniting Arizona’s tech ecosystem is paramount.

We want this first group to set the foundation for a different class of systems.

Who should apply?

Apply if your reaction to unfinished software is:

“I already know three things I’d change.”

Apply if “legal engineer” sounds approximately like you, even if it isn’t your official title.

Apply if you can move between legal reasoning and systems thinking without making either one unbearable.

Apply if you would rather enhance a system than spend six months discussing the framework for potentially considering developing a system.

And definitely apply if you’re willing to tell us when we’re wrong.

Small group. High signal.

We’re trying to find the right people, please keep that in mind when applying as infinite applicants isn’t the objective.

People who want to help make legal work a little clearer, a little easier, and a little less painful for the people doing it.

You’ve reached the right place. How many opportunities will you have like this?

Your Name

Selected legal engineers will help shape the systems themselves.

Your contributions matter, and the people selected for this inaugural group will be recognized as contributors to what gets built.

Where appropriate, that means being credited alongside the work you helped shape.

Think less “anonymous feedback panel.”

Think co-authors and developers of the system.

If you helped make it better, your name will be connected to that.

To apply

You must be a Jargonee user.

Once you’re inside Jargonee, you’ll be able to apply from there.
