Full-Stack Engineer

Pirical pioneers the field of People Analytics. We are on a mission to help law firms make fairer and better decisions about their people by helping our customers answer tough people strategy questions like: 'How can we achieve 30% of women in leadership by 2030?' or 'How can we eliminate bias in the recruitment process?’. This is enabled by our innovative knowledge management systems and data automation techniques.

We are an organically grown business that already has some of the world’s leading law firms as our clients both here in the UK and in the US, and we have ambitious plans to grow our business even further.

We are looking to hire a Full-Stack Engineer to join our Applications team. This role is particularly suited to those wishing to make simple and beautiful client-facing applications to help our analytics team across both of our products; Pirical Legal Professionals & Pirical On Demand.

The team…

The applications team is a small but plucky group of creative, problem solvers with a passion for building modern, customer-facing web applications. We love crafting user-centric interfaces that look as beautiful as they are simple to use, and we love solving technical problems in a way that meets the highest standards of readability, maintainability, and scalability.

We’re an Agile team and operate a regular Scrum rhythm that puts resolving our team’s workflow issues at its core, providing us with a comfortable, creative and flexible work environment where blockers and issues are addressed and resolved effectively.

Although we’re a small team right now, we’re preparing for large growth as we take on exciting new projects and we’re looking for people as passionate about building a team and growing the company as we are.

Harry, a member of the applications team said: ”I love working in a team of all backgrounds that aims high and innovates, while keeping end users at the core of everything we do. I always feel like I'm improving in my career and I love seeing how much our clients love what we build."
