Ironclad

A digital contracting platform that streamlines the creation, execution, and management of legal agreements and contracts.

Staff Software Engineer

Business runs on contracts. Every dollar earned, relationship formed, and advantage gained comes down to the contract that makes it real. But getting a contract done is more complicated than it should be. And when contract data is buried, leaders can't see risks, obligations, or act in time.

Ironclad is the leading AI contracting platform that transforms agreements into assets. Contracts move faster, insights surface instantly, and agents push work forward, all with you in control. Whether you're buying or selling, Ironclad unifies the entire process on one intelligent platform, providing leaders with the visibility they need to stay one step ahead. That's why the world's most transformative organizations, from OpenAI to the World Health Organization and the Associated Press, trust Ironclad to accelerate their business.

We're looking for experienced engineers with strong coding fundamentals and a proven track record of delivering high-quality products. Our team is building conversational and semantic search technologies to help customers quickly find what they need in modern contracts by unlocking the value of unstructured data.

What we look for:

  • Leadership across teams and a drive towards improving overall technical architecture and achieving company-wide goals
  • Passion for software engineering to build and ship great product
  • Hands-on experience shipping valuable products to production with real user feedback
