Job Description
Welcome to Crosby, the next generation law company.
We're a team of technologists and legal experts working side by side to reimagine corporate legal services from the ground up. We build proprietary technology and human-in-the-loop workflows to radically enhance the lawyer-machine relationship. We want to review complex documents, for example, faster than ever and with perfect quality.
We believe:
- A great legal system is the watermark of a great society.
- Legal work is art and science. We want to discover the frontier between the two and codify the scientific parts, which is a magnificent puzzle.
- Selling work – not software – is the best way to realize the productivity gains of GenAI for professional services.
- In an in-person culture at our NYC office.
Crosby was founded by Ryan (Penn, Stanford Law, ex-Cooley, former GC) and John (Penn M&T, ex-Ramp, ex-Google).

What You’ll Do

- Build bleeding-edge agentic AI tools to help the Crosby Legal team review contracts faster.
- Work closely with the founders and cross-functional teams to define and execute on technical priorities.
- Establish the foundation for a robust and maintainable codebase as we grow.
- Mentor and recruit engineers to help build out the team.
What We’re Looking For
- Experience: 3+ years of engineering experience, ideally including Python, TypeScript. Bonus if experience with NLP, LLMs, RL, and Information Theory. Optional: Experience with modern front-end frameworks (e.g., React, Vue, or Svelte).
- Problem-focused: Strong sense of the problem behind a problem, and attention to detail in delivering high-quality products.
- Builder mindset: Excited about the opportunity to create and scale systems from the ground up.
- Collaborative: Effective communicator who thrives in cross-disciplinary teams.
- Ownership: Driven to take responsibility for projects from ideation through execution.
- Curiosity: Passionate about learning and experimenting with new technologies.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and equity compensation.
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
- Unlimited PTO
- In-person team in NYC with a collaborative, high-energy environment.
