This Senior Product Manager role focuses on the technical infrastructure powering a legal AI platform. You will lead the strategy for document processing, search indexing, and data pipelines.
What you’d own
Platform vision and roadmap for OCR, chunking, and vector storage
Document management functionality and backend infrastructure efficiency
Adoption and migration strategies for shared platform services
AI platform metrics like extraction accuracy and indexing latency
Who it’s for
A fit if you…
✓You have 5+ years of experience managing complex SaaS platforms or infrastructure
✓You can speak fluently with engineers about RAG, LLM pipelines, and search technologies
✓You excel at driving adoption through influence rather than mandates
✓You have experience mentoring other product managers in technical processes
Not for you if…
✗You prefer working on purely consumer-facing UI/UX features over backend infrastructure
✗You prefer a role with clear, top-down authority rather than building consensus across teams
✗You are looking for a role without heavy technical requirements like understanding vector databases or indexing
Reading between the lines
The emphasis on 'influence' and 'consensus-building' suggests you will face significant friction when trying to get other teams to adopt your platform standards.
The requirement to monitor 'cost-to-serve' implies a high degree of accountability for the operational efficiency of AI models, not just their accuracy.

Role Overview
We are seeking an infrastructure-focused Senior Technical Product Manager to lead the development of the document processing platform that powers both our core legal practice management application and our growing suite of AI-driven features and capabilities. You will ensure delivery of a coherent, performant, and scalable data management system covering document storage, content extraction, indexing, chunking, embedding, and multi-modal search. This role will work in close partnership with a dedicated engineering team to solidify and extend the platform, collaborating with peer PMs and client engineering teams to drive adoption of reliable, accurate, high-performance solutions that scale our next-generation LOIS AI experiences.
What You'll Do:
Platform & Search Ownership: Define the platform vision and develop a comprehensive understanding of the architecture, capabilities, and limitations across all owning and consuming teams, translated into a clear strategy and prioritized roadmap that balances platform maturity with delivery of new functionality. Technical Requirements: Partner with platform engineers and technical leads to define requirements, constraints, and success criteria for platform investments incorporating infrastructure capabilities and customer needs into clear, actionable specifications that give engineering teams the context and clarity to make sound decisions on topics such as OCR pipelines, chunking strategies, indexing technologies, embedding and vector storage, and related infrastructure. Document Infrastructure: Partner closely with backend engineering, infrastructure teams, and data science to drive efficiency, improve consistency, simplify processing, and align document management functionality with the broader platform. Feature Enablement: Own the adoption and migration strategy for platform functionality, working through influence, demonstrated value, and consensus-building to drive teams toward shared solutions. Collaborate with peer PMs responsible for both AI-powered and traditional user-facing features to ensure platform capabilities are well-positioned to support new product requirements. Data-Driven Optimization & Metrics: Monitor, analyze, and optimize performance, latency, cost-to-serve, and core engineering metrics. In collaboration with machine learning engineers, track AI platform outcomes, including data extraction accuracy, ingestion throughput, indexing latency, and search precision/recall. Evangelism & Mentorship: Proactively build awareness of document platform capabilities across the organization. Mentor Associate and mid-level Product Managers in technical product processes, data-driven decision making, and infrastructure leadership.
Who You Are:
Experience: 5+ years of software product management experience in SaaS, with a proven track record of responsibility for technically complex products or platforms. Candidates with fewer years but strong relevant domain experience (e.g., document management systems, search and indexing infrastructure, RAG or LLM pipelines, or legal technology) will be given serious consideration. Technical Depth : Demonstrated knowledge of software development methodologies and sufficient technical fluency to engage substantively with engineers on topics like document processing pipelines, full-text and vector search, or content extraction, with particular value placed on shipping data-heavy or AI/ML-adjacent features responsibly and securely at scale. Platform Leadership: Comfort operating in a complex, multi-team environment and experience managing platform or shared-service products where adoption is driven by value rather than mandate, including the ability to build consensus across teams, navigate competing priorities, and manage complex cross-team migrations. Analytical Mindset: Strong analytical skills and a data-driven mindset, experience defining and tracking core product outcomes (adoption, accuracy, user confidence) along with the ability to identify where platform investment creates compounding leverage versus where it introduces unnecessary constraints or overhead Execution & Agility: Strong experience working within Agile/Lean delivery frameworks, with an emphasis on technical experimentation, iteration, and continuous system enhancement. Communication Skills: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to translate highly complex technical tradeoffs and AI concepts into clear narratives for both engineering teams and non-technical stakeholders.
