The HR & Legal Technology Operations Manager serves as the enterprise-wide point of accountability for the technology ecosystem supporting the People and Legal functions. This is first and foremost a Technology leadership role with strong business partnership responsibilities — owning the health, roadmap, integration, governance, and continuous improvement of the applications and capabilities that enable both functions.
This role acts as the U.S.-based bridge between HR, Legal, and Technology teams, translating functional needs and business outcomes into scalable, secure, supportable technology solutions. The role brings technical judgment, enterprise architecture awareness, and delivery discipline while building trusted partnerships with People and Legal leaders.

Responsibilities
Technology Partnership & Functional Alignment

• Serve as the primary Technology partner to the People and Legal organizations, bringing the credibility to challenge, the judgment to listen, and clear accountability for technology outcomes.

• Translate HR and Legal operational needs into scalable technology capabilities, roadmaps, integrations, and delivery priorities.

• Engage with People and Legal leadership to align technology investments with functional strategy, enterprise architecture, security, data, and operating standards.

• Proactively identify opportunities to simplify processes, improve user experience, reduce manual work, and strengthen controls through technology and automation.

• Provide leaders with clear visibility into application roadmaps, delivery progress, risks, dependencies, and capability improvements.

BambooHR Stabilization & Maturation (Near-Term Priority)

• Assess the current BambooHR implementation and identify gaps in configuration, data quality, integration, security, supportability, and process coverage.

• Drive a structured stabilization effort: clean up the environment, establish governance, close adoption gaps, and build a sustainable technology operating model.

• Partner with HR Operations to clarify and document the core HR processes that technology must enable, translating process requirements into system design and configuration.

• Establish clear system ownership, support models, release practices, and change management disciplines to ensure BambooHR delivers consistent value.

• Build the data and integration foundation — including employee master data, organizational hierarchy, interfaces, and reporting — required for future platform evolution.

Legal Technology & Operations Enablement

• Own the technology landscape supporting Legal, including the roadmap, lifecycle, support model, integrations, and continuous improvement of Legal applications.

• Partner with Legal leadership and Legal Operations to translate business processes into effective technology solutions across areas such as contract lifecycle management, legal intake and workflow, e-signature, document and knowledge management, and other legal operations capabilities.

• Assess the current Legal application portfolio for capability gaps, duplication, risk, adoption, integration needs, and opportunities for rationalization or automation.

• Establish technology governance and operating discipline for Legal systems, including ownership, access, data, vendor management, release planning, support, and lifecycle management.

• Ensure Legal technology solutions integrate appropriately with the broader enterprise ecosystem, including ERP, procurement, HR, identity, collaboration, and data platforms.

• Identify practical opportunities to use AI and automation to improve contract review, intake, knowledge retrieval, workflow efficiency, and other Legal operations use cases while partneri
