Product Manager / Business Systems Analyst-Only W2/1099

Role : Product Manager / Business Systems Analyst

Location : Mountain View, CA 94043 Or San Diego, CA 92129 (100% Onsite)

Must have : Legal Domain Expertise: Experience working with Legal, Compliance, or FinTech

organizations. You understand the nuances of legal workflows (e.g., matter

management, eDiscovery, CLM, regulatory audits, mergers & acquisition due

diligence, marketing compliance).

Knowledge of Legal Stacks: Familiarity with industry-standard tools such as Legal

Tracker, Ironclad, Exterro, or Tonkean

What You'll Do

Drive the "Build vs. Buy" Strategy: Lead the evaluation of emerging Legal AI

vendors (e.g., Eudia, Harvey, Hebbia) against internal capabilities. Conduct deep

technical and functional diligence to ensure 3rd-party solutions are not just

"vaporware" but deliver tangible ROI.

Orchestrate the "Unified Front Door": Own the roadmap for our unified

orchestration layer (currently leveraging Tonkean). You will design workflows that

centralize intake from disparate channels (Slack, Email, Jira) into a seamless legal

workspace, reducing manual toil and "chasing" for status updates.

Partner with Legal Domains: Embed with practice groups to solve specific domain

challenges, such as:

Intellectual Property: Optimizing patent and invention disclosure workflows.

Privacy & Compliance: Automating 7216 tax return information standards

and compliance assurance monitoring.

Matter Management: Streamlining accruals, budget forecasting, and outside

counsel management via Legal Tracker integrations.

Enable AI-Powered Innovation: Move beyond pilots to production. Lead initiatives

such as AI-Assisted Reviews and Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) that

operationalize legal expertise and reduce reliance on individual SMEs.

Data & Operational Excellence: Define the requirements for shared data

infrastructure (Legal Data Lake) to enable real-time reporting and resource allocation.

What You'll Bring

Product Management Craft: 5+ years of experience in Product Management, with a

track record of managing complex B2B or internal enterprise products. You are skilled

at writing clear PRDs, managing backlogs, and leading agile teams.

Legal Domain Expertise: Experience working with Legal, Compliance, or FinTech

organizations. You understand the nuances of legal workflows (e.g., matter

management, eDiscovery, CLM, regulatory audits, mergers & acquisition due

diligence, marketing compliance).

Vendor Assessment & Integration: Proven ability to evaluate SaaS vendors. You

understand API integrations and have experience connecting disparate systems (e.g.,

connecting ServiceNow, Jira, and Ironclad to a central hub).

Analytical & Technical Aptitude: Ability to partner with Data Scientists and

Engineers. You can discuss data lineage, "Human-in-the-Loop" AI workflows, and

automation logic with credibility. Experience with AI coding assistants and ability to

apply human oversight.

Bias for Action & Autonomy: You thrive in ambiguity. You don't just take orders; you

proactively identify process bottlenecks (like manual Google Sheet tracking) and

propose scalable solutions.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with Low-Code/Orchestration Platforms: Hands-on familiarity with

tools like Tonkean, generic workflow automation, or similar "front door" technologies.

AI/ML Familiarity: Experience deploying GenAI or NLP solutions in a regulated

environment (e.g., automated document review, chat interfaces for policy guidance).

Knowledge of Legal Stacks: Familiarity with industry-standard tools such as Legal

Tracker, Ironclad, Exterro, or Tonkean
