About Juno
Juno is an online law firm. We’re on a mission to make home buying and selling simpler, clearer and faster for everyone, and we’re doing this through user-centric technology, data and service design.
We’re rated among the top ten property law firms in the UK for customer satisfaction, and in 2023 we grew faster than any other firm in our sector. We work closely with a wide range of estate agents and mortgage brokers, from tiny firms to the market leader.
Since 2017 we’ve built the most sophisticated, user centric technology platform you’ll find in any consumer facing law firm. And since early 2023 we’ve added LLMs to our toolkit, enabling extraordinary service improvements for our clients.
Our goal is to become the UK’s fastest, largest and most trusted conveyancing firm. Come and help us make that happen.
About the role
We’re looking for a software developer who is:
- early in their career
- passionate about solving problems for users and
- keen to extend their existing experience into new languages, applications and technologies
You’ll join our in-house product and platform team, working closely with other members of the team to build, operate and maintain our in-house tech platform and user-facing tools. This is a remote-working role, and we’re a fully remote organisation, with more than 100 employees in five countries.
Over time you’ll take on a wide variety of projects and tasks, including:
- Using our JSON-based domain-specific language to configure and update internal legal workflows
- Training and testing LLMs to safely and reliably automate a wide range of tasks, using our extensive data set to validate your results before putting them live on production workloads
- Updating HTML and CSS (including React components) in our internal and external tools
- Extending our internal tools and automated workflows (coding mostly in Python)
You’ll work alongside and learn from highly experienced software developers and product managers with many decades of experience, who have built and architected award-winning online services used and trusted by hundreds of millions of people, including GOV.UK, HMRC’s digital services platform, and The Guardian Online, among many other digital services.
You’ll get a competitive salary, employer pension contributions, private healthcare and a generous annual vacation allowance. You’ll also be eligible to receive shares in the company, at nominal cost - everyone who works at Juno is a shareholder, regardless of their role in the company.
We’ll provide you with all the equipment you need, including laptop, monitor and a desk + chair (if you need it). You’ll need a fast internet connection and a quiet place to work.
We’re an equal opportunity employer, and we don’t discriminate against people on any basis.
We’re happy to consider flexible working patterns, although we do generally need you to be available from 0915-1000 (UK time zone) for daily team check in calls. Four days per week is the minimum commitment we require, although most people work five days per week.
About you
Ideally, you’ll have spent the last 1-3 years building web-based applications, with experience in front-end development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) running on either third-party APIs or self-hosted back-end code (any language and framework is fine).
We’re especially keen to speak with people who have worked or experimented with LLMs – either through your work or on your own time – and to hear your thoughts on how we could use them to improve how we work.
Prior experience in the legal sector is definitely not required.
