About The Role
As the Backend Integration Engineer at GC AI, you’ll be the architect behind the data infrastructure that powers how legal teams leverage AI in their daily work. This role goes far beyond building APIs; you’ll be designing the intelligent backbone that transforms raw documents into structured, AI-ready data and keeps our integrations seamless at scale.
