Legal Engineer

We’re looking for a Legal Engineer to join our Product team in Copenhagen. 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.

Legal 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 Lawyers still spend countless hours navigating fragmented sources, outdated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.

Our 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.

Pandektes 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.

As 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.

This 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.

• Evaluate 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.

• Turn 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.

• Bring 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.

• Work 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.

• Help 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.

We’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.

• Advanced 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.

• A couple of years of hands-on legal experience from a law firm, in-house legal team, public institution, or comparable legal

environment.

• Strong experience with legal research and analysis, and the ability to work independently with complex legal questions and

source material.

• Strong 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.

• Experience with document-heavy or structured legal workflows, such as due diligence, contract review, regulatory analysis, or

multi-jurisdictional research.

We 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.

We 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.

We 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.

We 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.
