Welcome to Crosby, the next-generation law company!

We're a team of technologists and legal experts collaborating closely to reimagine corporate legal services from the ground up. We build proprietary technology and human-in-the-loop workflows to radically enhance the lawyer-machine relationship. Our mission is to review complex documents faster and with higher quality than ever before.

Crosby was founded by Ryan (Penn, Stanford Law, ex-Cooley, former GC) and John (Penn M&T, ex-Ramp, ex-Google).

We believe:

  • A great legal system is the watermark of a great society.
  • Legal work is art and science. We are discovering the frontier between the two— codifying what can be systematized, and amplifying human expertise where judgment matters most.
  • The right way to deploy AI in law isn’t by selling software. It’s by selling outcomes — higher-quality legal work, delivered faster and more efficiently
  • In an in-person culture at our NYC office.

The Role:

  • As the Lead Infrastructure Engineer at Crosby Legal, you will take end-to-end ownership of our cloud systems, developer platform, and security posture as we scale. You’ll work alongside our founding engineering team to build the foundation that powers Crosby’s legal-tech stack.
  • This role is perfect for someone who thrives on autonomy, systems thinking, and building reliable, secure infrastructure from the ground up.

What You’ll Do:

  • Own and evolve our cloud infrastructure (AWS + Pulumi + GitHub Actions + Modal).
  • Build and maintain robust observability, tracing, and alerting systems.
  • Lead efforts around security and compliance (IAM, SOC 2 readiness, secure networking).
  • Define and enforce best practices for infrastructure reliability and performance.
  • Collaborate with software engineers to streamline CI/CD and deploy systems that scale.
  • Set the long-term strategy for infrastructure as we grow the product and team.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 5+ years in DevOps, Site Reliability, or Platform Engineering roles.
  • Deep experience with modern cloud infrastructure (preferably AWS) and infrastructure-as-code tools (Pulumi, Terraform, etc.).
  • Proficiency with CI/CD pipelines and automation (GitHub Actions or similar).
  • Strong experience with observability tooling (e.g., Datadog, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus).
  • Understanding of security best practices in cloud environments.
  • You’re highly autonomous, thrive in high-ownership settings, and enjoy solving ambiguous problems.
  • Passion for building foundational systems in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.

Why Work at Crosby Legal:

  • Competitive salary and equity compensation.
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Unlimited PTO
  • In-person team in NYC with a collaborative, high-energy environment.
