Everlaw

Job Info

---

Intern at a growing, venture-funded startup! You'll be developing core components of our litigation infrastructure, an online platform for lawyers to review, analyze, and collaborate on millions of documents. Tackling litigation with technology is a surprisingly deep challenge, and it requires knowledge of computer science, including machine learning, data visualization, search, distributed systems, databases, real-time collaboration, nifty user interfaces, and more.

We're looking for generalists. We value great CS fundamentals, ability to learn quickly, and humility over experience with any particular platform, technology, or specialization. We care a lot about writing correct software, using the right tools for the job, and avoiding dogma, and as a result we've been able to build quite a bit of sophisticated technology with a small, talented team. It's the kind of culture where you'll own serious features, write great code, learn a huge amount, and have a lot of fun. We code primarily in Java, TypeScript, and Python.

At Everlaw, we believe in creating opportunities for students who are historically underrepresented in computer science or software engineering fields of study, including, but not limited to, women, non-binary, Black, Hispanic, Native American, students with disabilities, and veterans. Everlaw encourages a diverse applicant pool and welcomes qualified applicants of all backgrounds.

At Everlaw, our mission is to promote justice by illuminating truth. Our company culture is open and vibrant and we're committed to the professional growth of our team members, and regular check-ins with managers regarding career goals. If you're looking for a place that values passion, integrity, thinking big, and a desire to learn, we'd love to hear from you! We do not believe in the 'perfect' candidate and encourage you to apply if you feel you can bring value to our team. Learn more about Life at Everlaw .
