As a Senior Product Manager focused on contract drafting and negotiation, you will own one of Litera’s most strategically important lawyer workflows and be accountable for meaningful business outcomes, including adoption, retention, and revenue impact.
You will lead the evolution of an end‑to‑end workflow that spans precedent discovery, clause assembly, collaboration, redlining, and clause‑level negotiation. Your role is to transform how legal teams work—helping them draft faster, negotiate more consistently, reduce risk, and close matters more efficiently—by applying innovative, AI‑powered approaches that lawyers trust and adopt at scale.
This is a senior‑level role with significant autonomy and influence. Success is measured not by feature delivery, but by customer impact and commercial results.

The Customer – Clearly articulating who our customers are and the problems they face in their workflow. You’ll engage directly with customers to learn about their needs and concerns. You’ll present and gather feedback on the roadmap. You’re skilled at synthesizing, understanding, and tracking customer data and use it to help prioritize engineering efforts.
The Competition – Be the expert on what the competition is doing as well as where the market is heading from a trends perspective. You’ll be responsible for a deep understanding of how we differentiate, but not just for difference's sake, but to support our position in the market.
The Requirements – You’ll define engineering efforts by authoring Epics and Stories that clearly define WHO the feature or experience is for, written in the user voice and WHY this effort is valuable. Clear prioritization is critical with a rolling monthly updated roadmap modified and refreshed based on the latest data and customer information.
The Story, The Vision – Everyone from engineering, QA, user experience, marketing and customer facing teams need to know what story we’re trying to tell with the work we’re doing. Not the “What” but the “Why” it matters. A coherent vision told as a story in the user voice is critical for aligning all disciplines to the same goal.
The Roadmap – What is coming next? When is it coming? You’ll drive the beating heart of the Product Development organization. You’ll adjust the prioritization based on customer data, engineering team status and latest strategic priorities. You’ll balance short term tactical delivery-focused monthly releases with longer term strategic approaches to winning in the market. This role will have a specific focus on Kira’s path forward as AI technologies continue to advance.
The User Experience – You’ll partner with the Litera Design team to ensure the user experience is a first-class citizen in our product development efforts. While the Product Manager does not own the design direction in isolation, they must be passionate about the end user experience and advocate for the various personas.
The End-To-End – Your job is to shepherd the development of the product and to enable the Go-To-Market teams so they’re armed to tell the right story and can support our customers with confidence.
