Job description

Aderant is a global industry leading software company providing comprehensive business management solutions for law firms and other professional services organizations with a mission to help them run a better business. We are motivated by a collective desire to drive the legal industry to the forefront of innovation. With over 2,500 clients around the world, including 95 of the top AmLaw 100 firms, we are changing the outside perception of the legal sphere; where there was once resistance to modernization, we are creating a culture that embraces new ideas and technology.

At Aderant, the "A" is more than just a letter. It is a representation of how we fulfill our foundational purpose, serving our clients. It embodies our core values and reminds us that to achieve success, every day must start with the "A". We bring the "A" to life by fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and personal growth. We encourage our diverse teams to bring their whole selves to work - ideas, experience, and passion - to drive our mission forward.

Our people are our strength.

We are looking for an Associate Software Engineer who is eager to learn and grow in a collaborative team environment. This individual should have a foundational understanding of the software development lifecycle and a strong interest in building efficient, reliable code.

In this role, you'll contribute to full-stack application development using TypeScript and NestJS (Node), along with cloud services (AWS) and API development. You'll also work on an established .NET and SQL Server platform that serves enterprise clients. As part of an agile team, you'll take part in design discussions, code reviews, and technical demonstrations, with mentorship and opportunities to expand your skills.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience (e.g., bootcamp, internships, or a strong project portfolio).
• Foundational knowledge of web technologies, APIs, and full-stack development.
• Familiarity with TypeScript/JavaScript and at least one backend framework (e.g., Node, NestJS, or .NET).
• Exposure to C# and SQL (queries, joins, basic stored procedures).
• Working knowledge of Git and version control workflows.
• Understanding of testing fundamentals (e.g., unit testing).
• Strong problem-solving skills and a willingness to learn new technologies, including working in an existing codebase.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience using AI-assisted tools in development workflows.
• Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS), containers (Docker), or CI/CD pipelines such as GitHub Actions.
