Company Description: Perry AI - High-velocity Legal AI startup for venture capital

Job Description:
As a Principal Engineer at Perry AI, you will lead the technical development of a category-defining platform that automates complex legal workflows for global VC funds. You will own the full stack, from architecting AI document pipelines to shipping production-ready React components, directly impacting how leading investors close deals and manage risk.

Location: London, UK or Remote

Why this role is remarkable:

  • High-impact leadership role where you will design and build core systems from the ground up for a product already live with global funds.

  • Work at the cutting edge of AI, orchestrating multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) to solve high-stakes, real-world legal document challenges.

  • Join a fast-moving, high-trust engineering culture that prioritizes shipping quality code over bureaucracy and offers meaningful equity upside.

What you will do:

  • Architect and ship end-to-end features using TypeScript, Node.js, and React while maintaining enterprise-grade security for sensitive legal data.

  • Build sophisticated document processing engines that parse, analyze, and redline DOCX and PDF files to extract critical investment terms.

  • Integrate and optimize LLM workflows to automate complex legal busywork, turning messy inbound emails and documents into structured, actionable data.

The ideal candidate:

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience with a mastery of TypeScript, Node.js, and modern React patterns.

  • Proven track record of building and scaling production-grade APIs and handling complex data schemas using MongoDB and Express.js.

  • Strong product intuition and a "ship-first" mindset, comfortable navigating the ambiguity of an early-stage startup to deliver user-centric solutions.
