Practice management and payment software for legal and accounting firms
CARET, formerly AbacusNext, sells practice management and payment processing software to legal and accounting firms. Job posts center on migration: an AI-accelerated platform for moving customers off legacy software onto SaaS, plus an internal move from AWS to Azure, which explains an Azure-heavy stack spanning AKS, Functions and Virtual WAN. Hiring is accelerating and engineering-led, with senior and manager roles dominating.
CARET builds practice management and payment processing software for legal and accounting firms, serving more than 10,000 firms.
