Job Overview
We are seeking a Lead Software Engineer to join the Retrieval Ingestion Team at Relativity. This role is ideal for an experienced engineer who thrives on designing and operating high throughput ingestion pipelines that transform raw documents into search-ready indexes at scale.
As the technical lead for the Retrieval Ingestion Team, you will own the ingestion lifecycle-from content acquisition and normalization through indexing, enrichment, and monitoring. You will guide the team in building fault-tolerant, low-latency systems that keep billions of documents discoverable and searchable in real time. You will balance hands-on technical contributions with leadership responsibilities, mentoring engineers on the team, shaping best practices for distributed ingestion, and ensuring alignment with platform-wide retrieval and search goals.
Job Description and Requirements
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the Retrieval Ingestion Team, providing technical direction, mentoring, and coordination across projects.
- Architect and maintain scalable ingestion pipelines that handle billions of documents reliably and efficiently.
- Drive adoption of event-driven and micro-batch ingestion frameworks using Kafka, Kinesis, or Flink.
- Collaborate with retrieval engineers to ensure ingested data is optimized for indexing and retrieval performance (sharding, metadata enrichment, incremental updates).
- Establish SLAs and monitoring for ingestion throughput, latency, data completeness, and recovery.
- Partner with platform, security, and compliance teams to ensure ingestion pipelines handle sensitive legal data securely and meet enterprise standards.
- Champion best practices in CI / CD, observability, automated testing, and operational readiness for ingestion systems.
- Contribute to innovation by incorporating vector indexing, knowledge graph enrichment, and AI-driven pipelines into the ingestion workflow.
