Why we do what we do:

Logikcull’s mission is to democratize discovery. The costs and risks associated with complex data projects like e-discovery, responding to FOIA requests, and conducting internal investigations are skyrocketing as the amount of data increases. Logikcull is transforming these tasks so they can be completed in minutes, by anyone, anywhere. As a result, our customers–modern legal teams from solo attorneys to massive law firms, Fortune 500 companies, and leading non-profit organizations — can find and use important information quickly so they can focus on their important work, like pursuing a better democracy or saving the Earth.

Who we are:

Logikcull.com is instant discovery for modern legal teams. Its secure, cloud-based solution helps law firms and organizations of all sizes solve the expensive, complex, and risky challenges associated with eDiscovery, internal investigations, and open records response. With Logikcull, you can start a discovery project in five seconds, from anywhere at any time on any device.

What we need:

Logikcull is a complex web application that sits on top of a distributed document processing pipeline that handles millions of documents each day. Current customer growth trends mean we have some serious infrastructure work ahead of us. Customers in 34 different countries (and counting) are depending on us. The technical challenges are staggering, but the potential impact even small changes can have is incredibly motivating.

As an Infrastructure Engineer, you’ll help us build new iterations of the Logikcull infrastructure stack. We’re increasingly motivated to operate globally and across multiple public cloud providers. You’ll collaborate with other team members to design, build, and test new architectural patterns while supporting our growing application engineering teams.
