About Norm Ai
Norm Ai, the agentic law company, has a client base with a combined $30 trillion in assets under management.
Norm Ai pioneered Legal Engineering, the process that empowers lawyers to build and supervise domain-specific AI agents with Norm’s proprietary suite of no-code software tools. Norm Ai technology is deployed inside many of the largest and most consequential institutions in the world.
Norm Ai is also the technology behind Norm Law, LLP, a separate but affiliated AI-native law firm built for the era of agentic AI. Norm Law’s attorneys advise leading institutions across private funds, private equity, venture capital, real estate, registered funds, and financial regulation, using the same legal intelligence platform that powers Norm Ai’s products.
AI Fluency:
Norm Ai expects all team members to be fluent in AI. Successful candidates actively use AI in their day-to-day work to support thinking, creation, and problem-solving. They use it to improve the quality and speed of their work and to continuously refine how work gets done end-to-end.
Candidates should be prepared to demonstrate and discuss their AI usage throughout the interview process, including concrete examples of tools, workflows, and outcomes. We look for practical, hands-on experience, not theoretical familiarity.
As an Engineering Manager on our Platform team, you will lead and grow a team of engineers who build the shared systems and infrastructure that power our products. As the consistent thread in your engineers’ careers, you invest in their growth and development. You lead through breadth of context rather than architectural ownership, partnering with the technical directors and senior engineers who own system design. While deep technical fluency is required, your leverage comes primarily through people, process, and judgment rather than writing production code.
Hire, grow, and retain excellent engineers, owning their career development, performance reviews, and compensation input.
Coach engineers with clear, direct feedback that accelerates their growth.
Create clarity around priorities, goals, and execution across multiple workstreams, drawing on technical fluency and understanding of business objectives.

Assist with team planning, execution, code quality, delivery, and retrospectives to improve team operations.
Drive how the team applies AI across the software lifecycle to raise developer productivity.
Take on targeted, high-priority engineering work that keeps a delivery on track or takes weight off the team.
