Companies can’t handle their contracts. Their obligations, risks and liabilities are trapped in PDFs and Word Documents — designed to be read by humans, one-at-a-time, in files and folders. These contracts are critical, yet most companies don’t know how many they have, never mind what’s in them.
Our service is simple: give us your contracts, and we’ll organise them into a verifiably accurate online database. That’s it.
Underneath, it’s a little more sophisticated: our team of in-house Document Programmers use bespoke tooling to help them organise contracts, capture information and encode relationships. Our organisation-specific schema allows us to build tailored databases for our customers. And we distill documents down to their text and structure, whether it’s a digital PDF or a scan-of-a-scan of a handwritten Portuguese lease from the 1800’s.
Our customers love us, and we’re profitable. But we want to do more — which is where you come in.
Your job is to solve problems with beautiful work: technically simple, visually stunning, and effortless to use.
You’ll be tackling everything — doing user research, designing frontends, building backends, deploying infrastructure, optimising performance, developing internal tools… Whatever needs to be done!
The Product Team is Jonny, Adam, Matt and Abhiram — but Adam’s leaving, so we’re hiring.
We like types, linters, forensic pull requests, and comprehensive testing. If we need to meet a deadline we cut scope, not quality.
We emphatically choose boring technology. We use Python, Django, TypeScript, HTMX, PostgreSQL, and a few other things. It’s mainly hosted on AWS, and deployed through Github Actions using Terraform. Zzz.
At Nomio, we believe that everyone should…
- Write it Down. Everything happens in Notion — organised, permanent, and for everyone to see. Meetings are rare. And when we do have one, we write down the outcome.
- Subtract. Nothing is as destructive or inelegant as the gradual accumulation of complexity. So we subtract. Repeatedly.
- Embrace the Pain. We don’t distort the truth for the sake of comfort, convenience, or popularity; integrity comes first. We correct our mistakes and accept the fallout from our decisions — even the good ones.
Oh, and:
- You’ll get a Macbook and whatever else you need to do your job.
- We work hybrid — you’ll need to come to our London (Victoria) office 2-3 days per week.
- You’ll need the right to live and work in the UK. (We aren’t licensed to sponsor visas.)
