Job description

FirmPilot is looking for a motivated and detail-oriented engineer to join our Applications Team. If you're passionate about integrations, data pipelines, and learning how real-world systems connect, this is your chance to work with a fast-paced startup building AI-powered marketing technology for law firms.

This role is perfect for a junior-mid level developer ready to take ownership, grow fast, and contribute to meaningful product outcomes from day one.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and maintain data integrations between FirmPilot and external systems such as Google Analytics, call tracking tools, contact forms, and CRM platforms.
• Connect and ingest third-party SEO data from providers like SEMRush, Ahrefs, and other marketing intelligence tools.
• Build and support backend data pipelines, including ETL processes, data normalization, and storage strategies.
• Collaborate with product and engineering leads to build out reporting tools and dashboards that surface valuable client insights.
• Proactively monitor and implement updates for third-party systems and APIs.
• Participate in system design discussions and help drive improvements in our data infrastructure.
  
  

What You Bring

• 2+ years of backend experience
• ReactJS skills with the ability to build polished, data-rich UI components
• Strong understanding of data structures, API integrations, and backend development concepts.
• Exposure to working with ETL processes, reporting tools, or analytics pipelines (even if in a personal project or bootcamp).
• A curious mindset with the ability to both explore new ideas and deliver clean, reliable code.
• Bonus: Experience with cloud infrastructure, data visualization tools, or marketing tech APIs.
  
  

Our Tech Stack & Environment

• ReactJS for frontend application development
• Modern .NET (8 & 9), Python
• SQL & data processing pipelines
• RESTful APIs, 3rd-party platform integrations
• AWS, serverless infrastructure
• Tools like Google Analytics, Ahrefs, SEMRush, Twilio, and more
  
  

Why Join FirmPilot?

• Tangible impact — your code connects the dots between AI outputs and real customer value
• Supportive growth culture — ideal for developers early in their careers who want mentorship, ownership, and momentum
• Startup pace, no red tape — your contributions will be seen and celebrated
• Mission-driven team — we’re redefining how law firms grow, with powerful tech at the center
  
  

Not the Right Fit If…

• You’re not comfortable learning new systems on the fly
• You need a rigid structure instead of flexible ownership
• You aren’t excited by data-heavy problem solving or technical integrations
  
  

Ready to Build and Connect What Powers the Future?

This is more than a junior developer role, it’s a chance to level up quickly in a high-impact engineering environment. If you're excited to learn, solve problems, and ship work that matters, we’d love to meet you.
