What we do
esumry is an AI litigation platform built for defense. We help trial lawyers and claims professionals cut pretrial busywork across depositions, medical records, pleadings, and the rest of the case file so they can spend time on strategy instead of document wrangling.

What you will do

· Work on lawyer-facing workflows such as deposition digests, case timelines, medical-record analysis, pleading citations, and document drafting.
· Write automated tests, review code, and use static code analysis.
· Get hands-on experience with modern LLM work (retrieval, tool calling, evals, prompt iteration, fine-tuning models, etc).
What you bring to the table
· 2+ years of professional software development.
· Strong Python and Django.
· Comfort with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
· The ability to write understandable, maintainable, testable code, and to learn new tools quickly.
· Clear written and verbal communication on a small team.
· Early-stage startup experience preferred.
· AI-assisted software development experience preferred (Cursor, Copilot, or similar).
· Legal-domain experience is helpful, not required.
· BYOD
What we offer
· Low six-figure salary plus significant equity.
· Health insurance (100% of premiums covered by esumry), 14 days PTO, 10 paid holidays, approved courses reimbursed.
· A small startup team and a lot of room to grow.
