About The Role

FTI Technology work with corporations, governments and law firms to meet legal, regulatory and investigative demands by leveraging our skills to enable our clients to more confidently govern, secure, find, analyse and rapidly understand their data in the context of compliance and risk. Our Technology practice helps clients manage the risk and cost of legal and regulatory issues that they face.

From forensic data collection to fully managed document review services we collaborate with our clients to deliver strategic solutions tailored to their unique legal requirements. With keen focus on the productivity and defensibility of document review, clients rely on our comprehensive portfolio of software and services expertise and address matters ranging from internal investigations to large-scale litigation with global e-discovery requirements.

What You’ll Do

As part of the London based team, but part of a global innovation group, you will spend most of your time contributing to a combination of tactical project-based solutions, as well as working on a number of strategic development initiatives.

You will work directly with FTI’s clients - whether it's requirements gathering or modifying and supporting the solution that you have developed. It's important that in addition to being passionate about software engineering, you also are interested in learning about the various data challenges which are solved by the challenges you are building. You will get to experience the full development lifecycle with many of the tools we develop going live with clients on a short timeframe.

How You’ll Grow

This is different from a regular development role. At any given point, you could have a number of different projects ranging across tactical client-based solutions as well as strategic products we are developing for multiple clients. This means you’ll have the opportunity to juggle and prioritise your workload, as well as interact with a broad range of clients and end users.

You will learn about a range of technologies including interacting with cutting edge Large Language Models and building frameworks capable of handing millions of datapoints from our team. Given the nature of our business, you will also be supported to learn more about the legal and regulatory technology industry, as well as more about electronic discovery. In doing so, we believe you will be a more well-rounded and effective software engineer as you will understand the industries you are creating solutions in.
