  • Familiarity with the electronic discovery process and common workflows, including preservation, collection, processing, review, and production.

  • Hands-on experience with litigation support platforms such as Relativity, Concordance, Opus2, or similar tools.

  • Basic understanding of eDiscovery analytics and AI-assisted review technology.

  • Flexibility and composure under pressure, including availability outside regular hours for time-sensitive issues, with strong organizational skills to manage multiple tasks and shifting priorities.
