Responsibilities

As a Staff or Senior Staff Software Engineer on the Product Engineering team at Harvey, you will own and lead engineering projects that span multiple Product Engineering teams and product lines. You'll work closely with our AI, Legal, and GTM teams to build secure systems that deliver value to our customers.
Product Engineering covers a lot of ground, and we're looking for engineers across multiple domains — backend, full stack, and AI. We want people who have built great products across consumer, enterprise, and everything in between, and who are excited about building the future of application layer and genAI products. You'll build both the surfaces where lawyers meet Harvey — web, mobile, and embedded experiences in Word, Outlook, and Slack — and the agentic capabilities that power them.
This role can be based in New York City or San Francisco, with a hybrid schedule of three days a week in office.
Bring AI to where our customers already work: build Harvey across every surface — web, desktop, mobile, and embedded experiences (Google Docs, MS Word, Outlook, and Slack), and API.
Lead large, high-priority projects that span multiple teams, and define the technical bets we make over the next several quarters.
Find the problems that are business critical, prioritize ruthlessly, and make the big tradeoff calls without slowing anyone down.
Build AI-platform and AI-native capabilities — the agent harness, agent building (custom agents and workflows), tool calling, retrieval, memory and context management, personalization and tone, the thread experience, and the evals that turn model quality into product quality.
Ship the systems that make Harvey work: retrieval over petabyte-scale document corpora, ingestion growing 10x every six months, data collection across 50+ jurisdictions, and government-level security for the world's most sensitive matters.
Ship across the stack — React and TypeScript alongside Python and Postgres — architecting intuitive UX and robust APIs for streaming results, long-running processes, and complex tool-calling workflows.
Mentor senior and staff engineers, and raise the bar for how the whole org builds.
10+ YoE (post-BS/MS) in a product-focused software engineering role, operating at Staff level or above.
Depth in full stack, backend, or agents/AI — and enough range to be useful outside it.
