Engineering Manager, Product Engineering

In this role you will build features and functionality for the Everlaw core product. You will work closely with our Product, Design, DevOps, Security Engineering and our application engineering leads to synthesize requirements and prioritize efforts. You will lead roadmapping, resourcing and execution for critical features and capabilities. You will support and coach engineers in their career development and growth.

Engineering is the backbone of Everlaw. We build features that delight our customers and apply the latest technical innovations to the product, while ensuring its smooth functioning. At our core, we like to build and enjoy the creative process of building software that is smart, that works well, that scales well, and that is reliable and secure. We do this by supporting and empowering our team members to do their best work, by tackling challenging and complex engineering problems throughout the tech stack and by nurturing and supporting each team member through mentoring, coaching, and comprehensive feedback.
