What you’ll do day-to-day

  • Own the product strategy and roadmap for attorney-facing systems, partnering with legal, engineering, UX, and AI teams to deliver workflow improvements that reduce friction in document-heavy processes.
  • Establish the operating model for how Legal Technology builds and ships products globally, including a design-first development approach, structured prioritization practices, and close coordination between U.S. and India-based teams.
  • Partner directly with senior legal clients to translate complex operational needs into clear product direction, ensuring leadership engagement at key decision points.
  • Lead buy-vs.-build evaluations for key systems, analyzing where internal builds offer a clear advantage and where the external market is stronger.
  • Collaborate with AI and engineering teams to identify where AI-assisted features can meaningfully reduce manual effort.
  • Build product management discipline within Legal Technology—including prioritization frameworks, backlog management, release planning, and cross-functional coordination—with the opportunity to manage and mentor other PMs as the team grows.
