What is an AI Engineer at Ironclad?
An AI Engineer at Ironclad sits at the intersection of cutting-edge artificial intelligence, robust software engineering, and the highly complex world of legal contracts. Ironclad is the leading digital contracting platform, trusted by modern enterprises to manage, analyze, and automate their contract lifecycles. In this role, you will build and scale the intelligent systems that power features like automated contract redlining, instant metadata extraction, legal playbooks, and generative contract drafting.
The impact of this position is immense. Contracts are the foundational data layer of any business, but they are notoriously unstructured, dense, and written in complex legal language. As an AI Engineer, you will directly solve these challenges by building production-grade Retrieval-Augged Generation (RAG) systems, fine-tuning specialized Large Language Models (LLMs), and designing resilient API pipelines that can parse and analyze massive multi-page documents in seconds. Your work will directly reduce contract negotiation cycles from weeks to minutes for thousands of global customers.
What makes this role uniquely exciting is the balance of research and production engineering. You will not just be training models in isolated environments; you will be designing the APIs, microservices, and system architectures that deliver AI capabilities to enterprise users at scale. Whether you are optimizing a specialized Go-To-Market (GTM) AI tool or building core platform features, you will have a direct hand in defining how AI transforms the legal industry.
