О компании
- is redefining how legal work gets done. Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar. Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes. 2,100+ customers across 80+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $200M+ in ARR , with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI, Graceview, Cadastral, and Wexler. We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law. Joining means three things.
- We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions.
- We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback.
- We grow together: as a team and with our customers.
- Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts.
- If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place.

- Identity lifecycle and access governance: Build reliable joiner, mover and leaver workflows connecting HR systems, Okta, directories and business applications. Own provisioning, entitlement changes and timely revocation, including downstream access and active sessions. Establish access reviews, least-privilege controls, privileged access standards and accountable application ownership.
- Identity engineering and automation: Build production software using Python and JavaScript, Okta APIs, Workflows and Terraform or other infrastructure-as-code tools. Put configuration and controls under version control with peer review, testing and safe deployment. Design for retries, partial failures, observability, rollback and recovery. Reduce manual work through reliable automation.
