FormPhil is part of CORTO, a cutting-edge software company dedicated to revolutionising the legal industry. Our mission is to empower legal practitioners with AI-driven solutions that streamline their workflow, boost productivity, and provide more efficient client service. Working alongside our Sydney-based team of passionate high achievers, you’ll join a fast-growing technology business where things rarely stay the same for long - and if you’re smart, caring, and ambitious, you’ll be in great company.

AI is transforming the legal industry and CORTO is at the forefront of this change. There is a huge prospect for law firms to save time, money and to add more value to their client base. This is where FormPhil comes in. FormPhil is a startup product transforming the way legal work is done to unlock new value for law firms and their clients. We will be utilising our in-house expertise and the power of AI to save hours of work and transform the way law firms provide access to legal justice.

Our goal is to automate the filling in of any legal form in the world. We’ll start by integrating seamlessly with LEAP Legal Software’s ecosystem, then the rest of ATI’s well-known platforms (Infotrack, Smokeball etc).

About the role

We’re looking for a hands‑on lead front-end developer who is able to take the Figma designs from the team, understand the requirements, interact and give the designer feedback and them bring the designs to life by combining an eye for responsive design, a clear understanding of what makes software enjoyable to use, and strong front‑end engineering skills.

Working within FormPhil team, as a part of CORTO, in ATI, one of the world’s largest legal technology companies,



you’ll partner closely with our UX/UI Lead and full‑stack developers to turn functional interfaces into polished, usable, intuitive user experiences.

You’ll contribute ideas, explore alternative approaches, and bring thoughtful details to the finished product, from the way an interaction responds to how an application guides users through a complex task. You’ll understand the intent behind a design and know how to carry that intent through to a working application.

How you’ll work with the team

For cross-functional features, our full‑stack developers will typically build the backend and an initial frontend implementation. You’ll take that implementation further: refining the interface, improving interactions, strengthening the frontend code, and ensuring the experience feels cohesive and complete.

You’ll also collaborate early with the UX/UI Lead and developers to shape interactions, identify reusable patterns, and resolve design and technical questions before they become rework.

This is a hands‑on engineering role with responsibility for both the quality of the interface and the code behind it.

What you’ll do

- Partner with the UX/UI Lead. Understand the user problem and design intent, contribute fresh ideas, and help explore what is possible. Discuss trade‑offs constructively and suggest improvements that make the product clearer, simpler, and easier to use.
- Bring designs to life.



Translate Figma designs into high‑quality React interfaces, with careful attention to layout, typography, spacing, responsive behaviour, and interaction details. Use subtle transitions and feedback where they make the experience more useful.
- Complete the experience beyond the design. Identify and resolve gaps between static designs and a working application, including loading, empty, error, validation, focus, and disabled states. Exercise sound judgement and collaborate with the UX/UI Lead where decisions need further design input.
- Elevate frontend implementations. Work alongside full‑stack developers to refine initial implementations into production‑ready experiences. Improve component structure, state handling, usability, and consistency while preserving the functionality and business requirements of the feature.
- Build reusable components and patterns. Develop and maintain shared component libraries and frontend conventions. Make common interactions easy to implement consistently, document their use, and help the wider engineering team adopt them.

What you’ll bring

- Strong visual and interaction judgement. You notice when spacing, hierarchy, feedback, or behaviour feels wrong, and can explain how to improve it. You understand that good user experience is about clarity, predictability, and ease of use as much as appearance.
- Experience working closely with designers. You’re comfortable interpreting Figma designs, discussing design intent, prototyping ideas, and resolving the details that only become apparent during implementation.
- Sound frontend engineering practices. You have experience with reusable components, applicat
