Clio is the global leader in legal AI technology, empowering legal professionals and law firms of every size to work smarter, faster, and more securely. We are transforming the legal experience for all by bettering the lives of legal professionals while increasing access to justice.

Summary: The Content Manager - U.S. Case Law

The Content Manager - U.S. Case Law is the accountable owner of Clio's U.S. case-law collection, one of the company's most strategically critical assets. This role treats case law as a product and infrastructure layer-responsible for coverage parity, data quality, reliability, enrichment, and commercial impact.

You will define and execute the roadmap for U.S. federal and state case law, ensuring Clio achieves and sustains competitive parity with incumbent providers such as Westlaw and LexisNexis, while building a more modern, AI-ready legal data platform that powers Vincent AI and Clio Work. This role sits at the intersection of legal expertise, data infrastructure, and product management. Success requires deep understanding of U.S. legal publishing, comfort operating across engineering and data teams, and a strong bias toward measurable business outcomes.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Own the U.S. Case Law Collection as a Product

Define and execute the roadmap for U.S. federal and state case law, targeting Level A (full parity) coverage against Westlaw and LexisNexis benchmarks.

Establish and manage KPIs for coverage completeness, update latency, citation accuracy, enrichment depth, and reliability.

Drive measurable business impact, including improved win rates, retention, and ARR tied to case-law capabilities.

  1. Coverage Gap Analysis & Expansion Planning

Maintain a jurisdiction-level coverage heatmap across courts, reporters, archival depth, and update frequency.

Prioritize new coverage and remediation based on precedential value, customer demand, competitive gaps, and cost efficiency.

Lead build / buy / license evaluations in partnership with Licensing, Legal, and Corporate Development teams.

  1. Pipeline, Infrastructure & Technology Stewardship

Partner with Content Ops, Data Ops, and Engineering to operate and evolve the ingestion and enrichment stack (including migration to Iceberg pipelines).

Ensure pipelines are resilient, proprietary, scalable, and free from fragile manual or third-party dependencies.

Define and maintain data integrity, monitoring, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery standards to support Vincent and Clio Work research features.

  1. Legal Data Enrichment & Innovation

Govern metadata and structural standards, including court identifiers, reporter series, parallel citations, and pagination mapping.

Oversee CERT, Clio's proprietary citator, ensuring validation accuracy and historical treatment of "good law."

Lead enrichment initiatives such as:

  • Key passages and semantic tagging of holdings
  • AI-generated summaries and headnotes
  • Topic normalization and statute linking
  1. ROI & Performance Management

Partner with Finance to quantify ROI of new coverage and enrichment investments.

Maintain dashboards tracking cost-per-document, ingestion throughput, parity metrics, and enrichment penetration.

Present quarterly updates to the Content Committee on roadmap progress, risks, and financial impact.

  1. Market Intelligence & Partnerships

Benchmark Clio's coverage, editorial quality, and citator capabilities against Westlaw, LexisNexis, Bloomberg Law, and emerging competitors.

Source partnerships with courts, publishers, and open-data providers to improve upstream access.

Track advancements in AI and NLP applied to legal text normalization and summarization.

  1. Internal Enablement & Subject-Matter Leadership

Act as Clio's internal subject-matter expert for U.S. case law.

Enable Product, Sales, Marketing, and Support teams on:

  • Scope and differentiators of Clio's case-law collection
  • Competitive positioning versus KeyCite, Shepard's, and other citators
  • Effective use of Vincent's AI-driven research features

Maintain internal reference documentation covering coverage, enrichment, and positioning.

  1. Commercial & Go-to-Market Support

Serve as an expert advisor on enterprise RFPs and strategic sales engagements requiring deep case-law knowledge.

Partner with Product Marketing and Sales Enablement to articulate case-law differentiation in GTM materials.

Provide ongoing competitive intelligence to inform pricing, packaging, and product strategy.

Success Metrics:

  • Coverage parity versus incumbents across jurisdictions and reporter series
  • Latency from court release to platform availability
  • Pipeline reliability and uptime (>99.9%)
  • Citation accuracy and CERT validation rates
  • Enrichment penetration (summaries, key passages, metadata)
  • Cost efficiency per ingested document
  • Revenue and retention lift tied to case-law features

Requirements:

  • 5-8 years in legal publishing, legal data operations, content management, or product management
  • Deep knowledge of U.S. court systems, case reporters, and citation standards (Bluebook, neutral, parallel citations)
  • Experience with legal citators, large-scale data pipelines, or NLP-based enrichment strongly preferred
  • Experience with product ownership and cross-functional leadership across legal, technical, and commercial teams
  • Strong analytical skills with a track record of data-driven prioritization and ROI modeling
  • Technical literacy across ETL pipelines, ingestion systems, and metadata architectures
  • Clear, precise communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
