Job Description
Director of Technology Position

The Director of Technology will serve as the firm's primary technology authority, reporting directly to the Founding Attorney.

Responsibilities
  • Lead the firm's AI strategy - identify, evaluate, and implement AI tools that reduce the operational cost of delivering legal services without compromising quality or confidentiality.
  • Improve the client experience - own every client facing technology touchpoint: intake, portals, e signature, communications, and transparency tools.
  • Improve the team member experience - reduce friction, eliminate repetitive manual work, and equip attorneys and staff with tools that let them focus on high value work.
  • Protect client confidentiality - develop and maintain firm wide cybersecurity and data privacy protocols that meet bar ethics requirements and earn client trust.
  • Keep the practice of law with our lawyers - AI in this firm augments legal professionals; it does not replace their judgment. You will define and enforce the guardrails that make that distinction clear.
  • Manage the full technology stack - including Clio, CoCounsel, Second Nature, Nextiva, and FormBuilder - ensuring every platform delivers measurable value.
  • Drive growth through technology - advise on marketing technology, CRM, lead management, and digital presence to support the firm's aggressive expansion goals.
Qualifications
  • Have 5+ years in technology management or IT leadership, ideally with legal or professional services experience.
  • Have hands on experience with practice management software (Clio, MyCase, or comparable).
  • Understand AI tools well enough to separate real operational value from hype - and build policies that govern responsible use.
  • Take confidentiality and attorney client privilege seriously - not as compliance checkboxes, but as professional obligations.
  • Can translate complex technical concepts for attorneys and non technical staff without condescension or jargon.
  • Are comfortable in a fast moving, growth oriented environment where priorities evolve and initiative is rewarded.
  • Have experience with cybersecurity fundamentals, cloud based communications (VoIP/UCaaS), and document automation.
Bonus Points For
  • Familiarity with AI assisted legal tools, including CoCounsel or comparable platforms.
  • Experience supporting marketing technology - CRM, digital advertising, lead management, or SEO/SEM platforms.
  • Relevant certifications: CompTIA Security+, PMP, ITIL, or similar.
