  • Collaborate with legal professionals to support the legal hold process including preservation and collection of documents and ESI.
  • Build a strong partnership with corporate IT teams and be viewed as a trusted partner and valuable resource on the Legal team by bringing both domain expertise and technical understanding.
  • Prepare budget forecasts related to eDiscovery.
  • Lead the submission, tracking, and reconciliation of invoices through Align's billing platform Brightflag.
  • Ensure all vendor invoices adhere strictly to company outside counsel guidelines, fee agreements, and rates.
  • Contribute to review of outside vendor bills and time entries.

  • Investigate and resolve billing disputes, invoice rejections, and past-due accounts efficiently.
  • Act as the primary point of contact for external law firms regarding billing inquiries and technical issues.
  • Develop and implement improvements to the department's billing workflows.
  • Support cross-functional initiatives involving data privacy, information governance, and IP protection.
  • Contribute to the development of legal data intelligence capabilities, including the use of AI agents and analytics tools in our document collection and management.

  • Interest in legal data intelligence, AI/ML tools, or agentic technologies is a plus.
  • Relevant certifications (e.g., CEDS, CIPP, CIPT, RCA, IGP) are a strong advantage.

Complementary skills:
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Fast learner
  • Curious and adaptable, with a growth mindset and a passion for innovation.
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and building new processes from the ground up.
