eDiscovery Operations Lead
linealDenver (CO)
About the role
Company Description:
Lineal, an innovative eDiscovery and legal technology services firm, is made up of a team of industry innovators, wary of outdated solutions, who are highly driven and motivated to work together to further Lineal’s promise of countering legal’s most pressing issues through an optimal blend of advanced technologies.
Responsibilities:
Own the end-to-end eDiscovery operational process, establishing consistent workflows, standards and controls across the full lifecycle from data processing through review and production. Influence across functions without relying on direct reporting authority, driving adoption of processes and standards across Project Management, Review, Forensics, Technical Operations and other stakeholder teams. Design processes for scale, identifying where workflows, technology and operating practices need to evolve to support increasing matter volumes, complexity and global delivery. Drive continuous improvement and optimisation, using operational data, root-cause analysis and lessons learned to identify bottlenecks, eliminate unnecessary steps and improve efficiency, predictability and quality. Own process documentation and governance, ensuring SOPs, workflows, controls, decision points and escalation paths are clearly documented, maintained and consistently followed. Establish and monitor quality standards, developing QA/QC frameworks, operational metrics and controls that reduce errors and ensure consistent delivery across teams and matters. Bring strong technical eDiscovery expertise, with hands-on knowledge of platforms such as Nuix and Relativity One (R1) and a strong understanding of processing, data movement, review workflows, productions and associated technical dependencies. Translate technical capability into operational process, understanding not simply how eDiscovery technology works, but how it can be used to automate, standardise and improve workflows at scale. Lead operational change, taking new or improved processes from design through stakeholder alignment, implementation, adoption and measurement rather than simply making recommendations. Be highly process- and detail-oriented while maintaining a strategic view, capable of identifying individual process failures while also recognising systemic issues and designing solutions that improve the broader eDiscovery operating model.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
