About the Role
Ontra is looking for a Senior Manager to help propel the future of legal tech AI by developing a world class data science team. This role will report into the Director of Data.
For this job we are currently only hiring candidates based in the United States. For more information on where we employ, please see below.
The legal industry has remained fairly unchanged for years, however, recent advances in AI present a unique opportunity to change it. Now imagine, you combine the power of AI with a proprietary data set, and a legal network of skilled professionals, that's the opportunity waiting to be unleashed by the Data Science Team, and we are looking for a rockstar manager to enable it.
The Senior Manager role is ideal for someone motivated by challenge, who enjoys building strong relationships, is hungry to deliver results, rolling up their own sleeves if necessary, and who enjoys product leadership, specifically, identifying opportunities where the team can be the driver of solutions even when not asked.
What You'll Do
- Drive Results: You translate business problems into data science projects, and, where possible/if needed drive their implementation to deliver measurable impact.
- Breaking down projects: You love taking big hairy problems and breaking them down into components to ensure your team is always answering the most pressing business question first.
- Resilience: You will hear "no" a lot, but when you do, this motivates you to find new solutions or quickly re-prioritize so that you are always focussing on what projects drive the most impact.
- Coach: You will grow a team where everyone believes feedback is a gift, cares about delivering excellent work, and cares about one another as well.
What You'll Bring
- Technical: Fluency in Python and SQL, deep understanding of analytical methodologies and statistics (experimentation, regression, ML), experience with developing product metrics, and passion for NLP.
- Results Driven: track record of leading teams towards measurable impact. Must be able to say, we did this because company goal was X, and as a result team did Y which led to Z.
- Team: A culture of bi-directional feedback, a more systematic focus on career growth, and enabling the team to deliver the maximum impact by either removing roadblocks or encouraging them to stretch their ambitions.
