Someone with a strong legal foundation who is excited about AI, technology, and finding better ways to do legal work. You’ll get hands-on with our product, work on real legal problems, and help us build AI-powered tools that lawyers can actually rely on.\nAbout Pandektes\nLegal research hasn’t changed much in decades. Lawyers still spend countless hours navigating fragmented sources, outdated systems, and complex databases just to find the information they need.\nAt Pandektes, we’re changing that.\nOur ambition is to build the leading global platform for legal research and the largest AI-powered legal database. By combining artificial intelligence, intelligent search, and continuously updated legal sources, we’re redefining how legal knowledge is accessed, understood, analyzed, and applied.\nPandektes has raised more than €17.5 million and most recently closed a €13.5 million Series A round (October 2026) led by Alstin Capital, PROfounders and Scale Capital. Pandektes already serves more than 450 customers across Denmark, Germany and Switzerland.\nWe’re still early in the journey, and joining our team now means you’ll have big impact on shaping how we scale.\nAbout the role\nAs a Legal Engineer, you'll sit at the intersection of law, AI, and product. You'll join our Product team and work closely with Engineering, Customer Success, and Sales.\nThis is a hands-on role: rather than practising law, you'll use your legal expertise to evaluate AI-generated legal work, figure out where and why it falls short, and turn real legal problems into scalable AI-powered workflows. It's a good fit if you like getting deep into legal detail but also enjoy stepping back to ask why something works and how it could work better.\nWhat you'll do\nEvaluate and improve legal AI quality: test AI-generated legal research and analysis for correctness, completeness, reasoning, and source selection. Investigate where outputs fall short and turn findings into actionable input for Product and Engineering.\n\nTurn legal problems into AI-powered workflows: break down how lawyers actually perform a task, define what a good outcome looks like, and help develop, test, and refine workflows that solve it at scale.\n\nBring UK legal expertise into product development: apply your knowledge of UK law, legal sources, and lawyer workflows to how we evaluate and build our products.\n\nWork on complex customer problems: partner with Customer Success and Sales on cases needing deeper legal expertise - understand the underlying problem, shape practical solutions, and feed what you learn back into Product.\n\nHelp lawyers work effectively with AI: build workflows and examples that help customers get real value from AI in their legal work, and flag recurring needs that could inform future product decisions.\n\nWhat you’ll bring\nWe’re primarily looking for strong legal expertise and judgement. You don’t need a background in engineering, AI, or product development - those are things you can develop in the role.\nAdvanced legal education or professional legal qualification, with a strong foundation in UK law gained through your education and/or professional training. You should be able to independently research, analyse, and assess UK complex and abstract legal questions.\n\nA couple of years ofhands-on legal experience from a law firm, in-house legal team, public institution, or comparable legal environment.\n\nStrong experience with legal research and analysis, and the ability to work independently with complex legal questions and source material.\n\nStrong analytical and critical-thinking skills, with the ability to assess the quality of legal work, identify weaknesses or unsupported conclusions, and explain clearly what could be improved.\n\nNice to have\nYou don’t need to tick every box below. These are a plus, not requirements:\nHands-on experience using AI tools for legal work, such as legal research, drafting, contract analysis, or document review.\n\nFamiliarity with prompting, LLM evaluations, or systematically testing AI-generated outputs.\n\nExperience with document-heavy or structured legal workflows, such as due diligence, contract review, regulatory analysis, or multi-jurisdictional research.\n\nExperience working directly with clients or business stakeholders and translating complex legal needs into practical solutions.\n\nExposure to product development, user testing, or workflow design.\n\nExperience working across multiple jurisdictions or legal systems, particularly both common-law and civil-law systems.\n\nBasic technical or data literacy, such as structured data, APIs, advanced spreadsheets, or simple scripting.\n\nAdditional language skills beyond English.\n\nHow we work\nWe place great value on a vibrant, inspiring, and challenging company culture. This is achieved through a talented and passionate team that believes in achieving great things together.\nWe value ownership - you can expect a lot of freedom and responsibility. The key is open communication, trust, and a shared passion to transform the legal world.\nWe are a growing team based in our Copenhagen HQ and remotely from Hamburg, Zurich and London. This role will be based in our Copenhagen HQ.\nWhat we offer\nCompetitive compensation + an attractive warrant program\n\nA collaborative work environment where your input is not only valued but often implemented within hours\n\n25 vacation days per year + public holidays\n\nInternational team events - last time we went to Barcelona, and we’d love to have you join us next time\n\nYour own Pleo card for necessary work expenses\n\nPaid parental leave\n\nPandektes is an equal opportunity employer\nWe believe diverse teams build better products and stronger teams. We embrace and encourage people from all backgrounds to apply regardless of race/ethnicity, colour, religion, nationality, gender, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, socio-economic status, culture or beliefs.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5983,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":true}]},"benefits":["Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Legal Services","Legal AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T20:21:50Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":29,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.533,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":43,"expected_fill_days":31,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-25T05:49:26Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/pandektes-aps-legal-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/pandektes-aps-legal-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-26T01:07:23Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1461,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-27T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1139},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1139"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fpandektes-aps-legal-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fpandektes-aps-legal-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fpandektes-aps-legal-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/pandektes-aps-legal-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fpandektes-aps-legal-engineer"}]}
