  • Managing users, groups, permissions, fields, choices, layouts, views, dashboards, searches, STRs, batch sets, dtSearch indexes, processing, imaging, productions, custom objects, event handlers, ARM, structured analytics, conceptual analytics, and active learning.
  • Administering applications, scripts, agents, queues, and various components of Relativity infrastructure.
• Provide reporting to case administrators on workspace metrics, user activity, or other requested document-based metrics.
• Perform quality checks and detailed analysis on work products prior to document production or additional levels of review.
• Demonstrate expertise in both Relativity Server and RelativityOne.
• Independently and proactively provide consultation tailored to client and case needs by recommending and developing custom workflows through the full scope of the EDRM.
• Use industry-standard processes to facilitate data collections, ECA workflows, data reuse and repository workflows, document reviews, and document productions.
• Work with traditional data sources (e.g., email) and modern data sources (e.g., cloud storage providers, mobile devices, short message data).
• Develop custom innovations and provide engineering support to the business development team.
• Assist junior team members by providing escalation points, training, and additional support.

Requirements

• 5+ years of Relativity administrator experience with expertise in the litigation support industry, including knowledge of product evolution and changing dynamics/expectations.
• Relativity Certified Administrator certification.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills for technical and non-technical stakeholders, including attorneys, client support staff, and internal teams.
• Expertise in the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM).
• Knowledge of the litigation lifecycle or experience managing litigations.
• Proficiency with Windows operating systems and the Microsoft Office product suite.
• Superior organizational skills with acute attention to detail.
• Ability to work effectively under pressure, prioritize multiple projects with similar deadlines, and troubleshoot applications while communicating results to support teams.
