Job Description

📌 About the Role

Jus Mundi is looking for a Staff Engineer to play a critical role in shaping and sustaining a resilient, secure, and scalable platform that acts as a force multiplier for our entire engineering organization. This role sits at the intersection of long-term technical vision, day-to-day operational excellence, and product impact. You will lead the shift from reactive operations to proactive engineering, setting the bar for stability, security, and developer experience across the company.

This is a senior individual contributor role with broad influence, designed for an engineer who drives impact through architecture, standards, mentorship, and product-oriented technical leadership rather than people management.

🙌 The Team

You will work across multiple product and platform teams within Jus Mundi’s Engineering organization. You will collaborate with closely with Engineering, Product, AI, and Security stakeholders from different squads to define shared foundations and enable teams to move faster and safer.

Our engineering culture values high ownership, pragmatism, collaboration, and technical excellence. You will partner with senior engineers and tech leads to solve complex cross-cutting challenges and raise the overall maturity of our systems and practices.

🌟Your mission at Jus Mundi

In This Role, You Will

• Drive architectural decisions and technical strategy across multiple teams and domains, with a strong focus on product outcomes and user impact.
• Design and evolve fault-tolerant, scalable distributed systems, applying proven software engineering patterns such as API versioning, asynchronous messaging, caching strategies, or database sharding.
• Partner closely with Product and Engineering leaders to balance technical trade-offs with business value and delivery timelines.
• Define and enforce engineering standards related to reliability, security, testing, and deployment.
• Lead the transition toward fully automated, self-healing, and immutable infrastructure.
• Act as a technical driver for platform-wide initiatives that improve system reliability, performance, developer productivity, and end-user experience.
• Mentor engineers and act as a trusted technical advisor across the organization.
  
  

You will be empowered to modernize our platform foundations, reduce operational risk, and directly impact business outcomes by enabling teams to ship faster with confidence.

Preferred Experience

Required qualifications and experience

• 10+ years of professional experience in software engineering and cloud infrastructure management, with at least 3 years in senior or staff-level technical leadership roles.
• Proven experience designing, scaling, and operating fault-tolerant distributed systems.
• Strong product mindset, with the ability to understand business context, user needs, and how technical decisions impact product success.
• Demonstrated ability to make and communicate clear technical trade-offs in service of business value, user experience, and long-term platform health.
• Expert-level proficiency in our relevant technology stack and modern backend architectures.
• Strong experience of Infrastructure as Code, with hands-on experience using tools such as Terraform, Kubernetes, and Ansible. Environments must be managed strictly through code, with no manual console changes.
• Strong track record of leading complex technical projects without direct managerial authority.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Demonstrated ability to deliver high-impact projects on time and to a high standard.
• Fluent English required.
  
  

Key technical focus areas

• Developer experience and platform enablement, including CI/CD pipelines, standardized APIs, observability, and high-quality documentation.
• Security by design, including architectural approaches to mitigate risks such as DDoS and scraping without relying on reactive patching.
• Operational excellence, including automated remediation, elimination of manual production interventions, and clear technical debt reduction strategies.
• Code quality, testing strategies, deployment best practices, and system observability.
  
  

Bonus Skills

• Experience in SaaS or AI-powered platforms.
• Background in security engineering or large-scale platform engineering.
• Prior experience in legal tech or highly regulated environments.
