London, Greater London, United Kingdom Droit Full time

About Droit:
At Droit, we build mission-critical, breakthrough products to advance global regulatory compliance and real-time controls. We are pioneers in computational law and automating intelligent decision making. We see the complexity of rules and regulations as an opportunity. With our award-winning, patented platform, we help our clients systematically identify the right action and improve operational efficiencies in an ever-changing regulatory environment. 

We value intellectually curious, creative people who enjoy solving challenging, interesting problems and building breakthrough products. Our culture and organizational model encourage accountability, collaboration and personal development.  

About the role:
Knowledge Engineers are responsible for building out Droit's decision platform for regulatory compliance by developing rules that evaluate global regulatory obligations for capital markets transactions. Knowledge Engineers will develop and hone a unique combination of skills, coupling a proficiency in analyzing complex regulatory requirements with an engineer's ability to create functional, scalable knowledge models. You can expect challenging and stimulating work that drives solutions for some of the world's leading financial institutions.

What you'll do in this role:

  • Design and build executable knowledge models for complex, global regulations using proprietary domain-specific programming languages
  • Analyze regulatory texts – including supporting guidance and supplementary rules – to identify new obligations and assess the impact of changes on maintained rules
  • Prototype tooling to improve and automate knowledge modeling workflows
  • Drive understanding of knowledge models for internal and external audiences by composing annotated, clearly written guidance materials

What we are looking for:

  • Strong academic background in a technical or analytical field
  • Practical experience with programming and familiarity with basic tools, including a version control system (e.g., git)
  • Strong understanding of algorithmic thinking and ability to solve challenging problems through abstraction and modeling
  • Impeccable attention to detail and a commitment to precision
  • High degree of curiosity with the ability to ask thoughtful questions
  • Demonstrated ability to engage successfully in self-directed research or independent learning
  • Collaborative mind-set and commitment to knowledge sharing 

Any of the following would be an added benefit:

  • Prior experience working with and operationalizing regulatory or legal documents
  • Experience designing and building technology solutions for large, sophisticated clients
  • Technical writing or similar experience in documenting complex requirements  


A little more about Droit:
We believe in maintaining a diverse, innovative and inclusive workforce. Our people join us from a variety of backgrounds, and these diverse experiences help fuel our growth and ensure that our clients receive best-in-class products.  

As we scale, we continue to commit to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, marital status, disability or Veteran status or any other legally protected characteristics.
