About the role

Posting Type Remote/Hybrid Job Overview Role Purpose This role supports execution of our Federal strategy by adding dedicated program leadership and government practitioner expertise to Public Sector Practice Empowerment. The role helps coordinate complex Federal opportunities and initiatives across Product, Success, Sales, and other internal stakeholders where agency-specific operating, procurement, compliance, and implementation requirements require deeper Federal context. The role serves as the dedicated Federal practitioner lead for Relativity FOIA within the Federal segment.

FOIA is a core Federal agency workflow, and Federal is where Relativity FOIA opportunities, implementations, and adoption are concentrated. The role provides the practitioner expertise needed to support Relativity FOIA as it moves from launch through implementation, adoption, and continued product maturity. Why This Role Matters Federal opportunities often involve multiple stakeholders, statutory and regulatory requirements, procurement considerations, complex agency operating environments, and long implementation cycles.

Supporting those opportunities requires coordination across Product, Success, Sales, and Public Sector, with demand across the Federal segment exceeding what current Practice Empowerment capacity can cover. That demand is increasing with the availability of Relativity FOIA and growing adoption of aiR, creating additional needs around agency implementation, adoption, product feedback, and customer support.

Relativity FOIA also requires specific practitioner expertise in Federal FOIA workflows, statutory requirements, agency operations, and implementation that broader program support alone does not provide. This role adds dedicated FOIA capacity and practitioner expertise to help teams navigate those requirements, identify recurring issues and dependencies, and apply what we learn from individual agencies across the broader public sector business. FOIA is an important area of ownership within the role, but the role extends across Federal products, workflows, customers, and priorities.
