About this role

Harvey is hiring for a Staff Software Engineer, AI Platform role (full-time). See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience building backend systems, with at least 1+ year focused on AI/ML engineering and a track record of technical leadership across teams.
  • Experience building and shipping multi-model or multi-provider AI systems in production.
  • Familiarity with context management, session state, or memory systems in AI or distributed systems. You’ve thought about what the model sees and why it matters.
  • A track record of building internal platforms, SDKs, or shared infrastructure that other engineering teams actually adopted - and an understanding of why developer experience matters as much as raw capability.
  • Strong judgment about abstractions. Opinionated about good design but pragmatic about shipping incrementally.
  • Excitement about agentic AI and the infrastructure challenges of making autonomous systems reliable when the stakes are real.
  • A bias toward full ownership: you navigate ambiguity well and don’t wait for a roadmap to start solving problems.
  • Bonus: experience building evaluation frameworks, working with agent/function-calling architectures, familiarity with legal or other high-stakes professional services domains, or time at early-stage or hyper-growth star…
