• Experience with legal technology platforms (e.g. Ironclad, CPAI, DocuSign CLM, iCertis, SirionLabs, Wolters Kluwer, Harvey) is desirable.

As a Senior Data Engineer, you will lead the technical development of Quantexa-based solutions, bringing deep hands-on experience with data ingestion, transformation, and contextual data modelling.
