Job Overview
At Relativity, we make software to help users organize data, discover the truth, and act on it. Our e-discovery platform is used by more than 13,000 organizations around the world to manage large volumes of data and quickly identify key issues during litigation, internal investigations, and compliance projects.The Product Management team is seeking a strategic and technically-minded Product Manager to lead the roadmap and execution for Relativity’s worker compute infrastructure and data archiving & restoration capabilities. These are foundational platforms of our document processing and imaging workflows, enabling reliable compute at scale and data lifecycle management.
This role will be instrumental in driving innovation in how we provision compute resources in the cloud and empower customers to archive, migrate, and restore their data with confidence. You will collaborate across engineering, cloud operations, customer enablement, and GTM functions to deliver scalable, secure, and user-centric solutions that improve operational efficiency and user satisfaction.
A successful candidate must be energized by building deep customer empathy, collaborating with design, development, discovering opportunities through data analysis and inquiry with customers, creating and communicating progress through leading indicators, developing strong fluency in cloud architecture and adjacent technologies, and navigating ambiguity given the technology’s pace of change.
Job Description and Requirements
In this role, you will:
Own and drive the roadmap for both Worker Compute and Archiving, Migration & Restoration, aligning with customer needs, internal stakeholders, and long-term platform strategy.
Define and prioritize capabilities for worker compute systems that provide reliable, elastic, and cost-efficient processing infrastructure in a cloud-native, containerized environment (e.g., Kubernetes, autoscaling groups, ephemeral compute).
Partner with engineering to ensure the compute platform supports throughput, availability, and observability requirements across document processing and imaging workloads.
Design and evolve intuitive workflows for users to archive, migrate, and restore large-scale datasets, ensuring compliance, auditability, and operational ease.
Work cross-functionally with other product managers to ensure compute and archival capabilities integrate well across various features in data processing and enrichment.
Develop positioning, artifacts, and internal documentation to support customer enablement, sales, and support teams in articulating the value of compute and archival investments.
Act swiftly to address barriers to adoption and ensure successful customer experiences, especially around large-scale data migrations or compute scaling challenges.
