Engineering Manager

As an Engineering Manager at Legora, you’ll lead by example—hands-on in the code while guiding a talented team of engineers. You’ll architect and deliver features that make legal professionals’ lives easier, drive technical excellence, and help shape a product used by forward-thinking law firms around the world. This is a role for someone who loves to build, mentor, and scale both people and systems.

What you will be doing:

• Design and implement end-to-end features across our fullstack platform
• Contribute directly to the codebase while supporting the growth of your team
• Lead architecture discussions and technical decision-making
• Ensure high standards in code quality, security, and performance
• Collaborate closely with Product and Design to ship value quickly and reliably
• Review code, give feedback, and mentor engineers at all levels
• Champion best practices in development, DevOps, and continuous improvement
• Work with Node.js, React, Azure, AWS and Kubernetes
• Work every day to ensure your team is healthy and efficient

Who you are:

• A seasoned fullstack or backend engineer with 1-3 years of leadership experience
• Comfortable being hands-on while also setting technical direction
• Skilled in building scalable products and owning complex systems end-to-end
• Strong communicator who leads with empathy and clarity
• Passionate about mentoring others and helping teams grow
• Confident working across backend, frontend, and infrastructure
• Curious, pragmatic, and always looking for smarter ways to build and deliver
• But most importantly, you are someone who:
  • “Gets stuff done” and understands building a successful company isn’t always glamorous and takes hard work and long hours
  • Proactively and independently solves the most burning problems
  • Strives in a fast-paced environment where the answers aren’t always clear and processes are few

*Candidates will go through the same interview process as software engineering candidates (including a coding task and a technical interview), with additional interview steps at the end designed for the engineering manager role. *This is a Stockholm-based, 5-day in-office role, we believe building together in person drives better outcomes.
