Working Student Quality Assurance - Legal (40-60%)

Description

DeepJudge is Switzerland’s leading AI and ICT scale-up, transforming how law firms and legal departments access and leverage their knowledge. Founded by former Google search engineers with PhDs in AI from ETH Zurich, and backed by top-tier Silicon Valley investors, we are building the intelligence layer that powers the legal industry.

Every firm can license the same AI models, but no two firms share the same institutional knowledge. Decades of experience, work product, and precedent are often trapped across systems, underused and inaccessible. DeepJudge makes this expertise instantly available through world-class enterprise search and AI infrastructure, enabling firms to automate workflows, build knowledge-powered applications, and turn experience into a lasting advantage.

Our technology is trusted by many of the world’s leading law firms, including Freshfields, Gunderson Dettmer, Holland & Knight, Arent Fox, and Cozen O’Connor. Headquartered in Switzerland with a growing team across North America, we are expanding rapidly and shaping the future of how professional knowledge is discovered and applied.

At DeepJudge, we move fast, think rigorously, and care deeply about what we build. We combine cutting-edge research with close collaboration with our clients to deliver solutions that truly make an impact. If you want to be part of a team defining how AI transforms high-stakes knowledge work, this is the place to do it.

About the role:

As a Working Student Quality Assurance - Legal Track, you'll join a strong team of quality assurance professionals, help maintain the high quality of our product, and ensure our customers derive the greatest possible value from it. Your primary responsibility will be to thoroughly test our key features with every product release, ensuring that our users have a seamless product experience. This is a great opportunity for a quality-driven student who approaches their work with precision and dedication.

Responsibilities

• Test new features and releases from the perspective of a legal end user — associates, in-house counsel, M&A teams
• Map out and stress-test full user flows, not just individual functions — where does the experience feel clunky, confusing, or slow?
• Document bugs and usability issues clearly enough that engineering can act on them fast
• Flag legal/domain edge cases a non-lawyer tester would likely miss

Requirements

• Currently studying law (Bachelor's or Master's)
• You think like an associate: structured, detail-oriented, quick to notice when something doesn't add up
• A sharp eye for usability — you notice when something works but doesn't feel right
• Comfortable giving direct, well-organized feedback in writing
• Have excellent command of English, both written and spoken
• Are interested in legal technology and highly motivated to learn about the needs of our customers
• Based in or able to commute to Zurich, available Mondays and Tuesdays
• These aren’t required, but they’ll make you a stronger candidate:
• Practical legal experience: internship, clerkship, or clinic work, ideally at a larger law firm or in-house team
• Exposure to M&A, corporate, or transactional work
• Familiarity with legal AI tools, or a genuine interest in the intersection of law and technology
• What you can look forward to:
• A real, up-close look at how one of Switzerland's fastest-growing startups operates
• A fast-track into the Zurich tech and startup network
• A modern office just 5 minutes by foot from Zurich main station.
• Direct exposure to how engineering teams build and ship product
• A front-row seat to where the legal industry is heading
• At DeepJudge, we believe great teams are built on diverse perspectives and experiences. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and are committed to fostering an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can thrive. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
