WordsmithWordsmith is building the legal operating system for in-house teams, and we are growing fast.
We believe in-house legal is becoming one of the most important functions in the AI era.
Every business is moving faster, but legal work is still too often scattered across inboxes, chats, documents and disconnected systems.
Wordsmith brings that work into one system.
Requests come in from across the business, AI agents handle the routine, lawyers stay in control where judgement matters, and every step is captured as work happens.
We are built for in-house legal, not law firms.
Our goal is to help legal teams move faster, reduce unnecessary external counsel spend and become a function the business can run with.
More than 500 companies, including Financial Times, Safelite, Trip.
com, Canva, Starling and Sage, use Wordsmith.
Backed by over $100M from Index Ventures, General Catalyst, Highland Europe and others, we are building one of the defining companies in legal AI.
The roleWe're hiring a Legal Engineer to help build out privacy and compliance as a brand new product vertical for Wordsmith, from the ground up.
This role spans privacy and compliance more generally - building products for customers, supporting pre-sales, and creating the global AI tools that power them.
Its centre of gravity is privacy and compliance, but with the scope to be involved in wider regulatory, governance and legal use-cases, so comfort and curiosity across these areas is a must.
Because this is a new product vertical for Wordsmith, we're seeking someone who is genuinely excited to build it out from scratch.
This is a mid-to-senior role for someone who can work independently and with our Head of Privacy - scoping a problem, building the solution and standing in front of a customer without hand-holding.
What you'll doBuild privacy and compliance products — translate messy legal, privacy and compliance.
