About the role

As a front-end developer for Legal Desk you will become an integral part of our dev team, which currently has 7 team members.

As our new front-end developer you will work closely with our Scrum master Pwint and our Tech Lead Vladica, who you will be reporting to.

We are just started an exciting migration process, where we are updating our entire code base. This includes introducing vue.js to all our front-end code, and all new features built will continue to use this. As our new front-end developer you will play a critical part in assisting on this process.

More specifically you will be working on tasks for:

  • Platform design implementation: implementation of new designs and features in collaboration with our designer and full-stack developers

  • Website modernization: modernizing and improving the existing website by migrating the older technologies stack like javascript, jquery and knockout.js into something more progressive, performant and versatile framework using Vue.js

Legal Desk is bringing automation to the legal industry in order to democratize the drafting of legal documents. We combine our knowledge and experience with law with the potential of technology to offer our customers a valuable alternative to the traditional lawyer service. Our intelligent software asks the same questions that a lawyer would and automatically generates your legal document ready for signature. We offer legal documents for private use as well as business. We offer our products and services within family law (B2C) and business law (B2B), and are the market leader in Denmark. We have also launched our services in Norway and Sweden, where we are rapidly growing. With more than 200.000 registered users, the platform is undergoing continuous changes and improvements and we are always developing new legal services. Our team currently consists of 48 dedicated people (and one equally ambitious office dog), that all share the nerdy obsession of automating legal processes through our platform. We speak mainly Danish and English at work, but you might also hear Swedish, Norwegian, Romanian and Macedonian around the office. We know that diversity is a force, and that a great workplace is versatile. We love our social butterflies and wall flowers. Our HQ is in new, bright rooms in the best location in Copenhagen - Islands Brygge (5 min. from a metro station). We have a very informal tone at the office and a team-based approach to problem-solving, which is why we like to work on-site and sit together as much as possible. We make sure to keep you hydrated with free access hot and cold drinks, and to avoid hangry-related conflicts, we provide fruit and a good lunch, that can be adjusted to vegan/vegetarian dietary requests. We also prioritise social interactions, to maintain the great spirit we have in our team. On Fridays there are usually a few colleagues having beers/soft drinks together after work, which is completely optional - we respect that you have a life outside work - also on Fridays EOB. In addition we have smaller team dinners, and five-six times a year we have larger parties and events, where friends of the house are invited to join, and we serve special brewery beers from our brand new "Fadølsanlæg". Lastly we once each year go on a company trip. This year we are visiting a beautiful estate, where we will be doing workshops during the day and have fun and "hygge" in the evening with games, sodas and maybe some wine. If you are still not convinced this is the best place to work, here are the winning arguments: 1. Sigurd - allergy friendly office dog and the colleague with the absolute highest cuteness-factor 2. We have a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-archade machine. We will leave it at that.... Does it sound like something for you, and you have an open and friendly personality, Legal Desk is the perfect place! Check our open positions below.
