Avvo is on a mission to make it easier for everyone to get the legal help they need. But you don’t need to be an attorney to join our ranks. Seeking coders, thinkers, tinkerers – all doers – who are interested in changing what it means to lawyer up.
Working at Avvo means working with incredible teams. We’re all about getting stuff done, and it’s easy to find an accomplice to make your big ideas become a reality.
We don’t believe the status quo is good enough, in the legal industry or at the office. We aren’t afraid to pitch new ideas, approaches, or processes that make a better product, better customer experience, or better workplace. You’ll see us dodge obstacles, climb hills, and run through walls to get the work done that helps us meet our goals.
Meeting big goals requires collaboration, so we take a team first approach to our work. We are never afraid to call for all-hands on deck. And we are never afraid to hit pause for a round of Ping Pong or to take a walk to Pike Place Market. We also have a monthly all-hands where teams can highlight the exciting new projects they are working on!
