## Job description

Your opportunity At Schwab, you’re empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us challenge the status quo and transform the finance industry together. We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location(s). Schwab’s expanding eDiscovery organization is strengthening its internal capability to preserve and collect electronically stored information across a complex enterprise environment.

As a Forensic eDiscovery Collection Specialist, you will conduct defensible collections across endpoint, mobile, cloud, email, collaboration, and enterprise data sources while protecting evidentiary integrity, confidentiality, and chain of custody. Your work will help shape consistent collection standards, documentation practices, and quality controls that support Schwab’s modernized eDiscovery operating model. You will solve technical challenges, make informed decisions when collection risks or source limitations arise, and collaborate with legal partners, business stakeholders, system owners, and service providers.

By applying analytical thinking, attention to detail, and adaptability, you will improve scalable processes and help ensure collected information is complete, accurate, secure, and ready for litigation, regulatory, and downstream eDiscovery workflows.

### Key Responsibilities

Conduct thorough and defensible preservation and collection of ESI from enterprise systems, email, cloud and collaboration platforms, network locations, and other approved sources. Collaborate with business stakeholders and system owners to scope collection efforts and resolve access, retention, and technical-source questions. Use approved tools and procedures to perform forensic imaging, targeted collection, hashing, export, and validation while maintaining chain of custody and evidentiary integrity.

Maintain detailed evidence inventories, chain-of-custody records, collection notes, scope decisions, methodologies, tools used, validation data, exceptions, and issues encountered. Preserve the integrity, security, and confidentiality of collected information and ensure data is protected from alteration, loss, or corruption. Conduct quality-control checks, validation, and reconciliation to confirm the completeness and accuracy of collected data.

Securely stage, encrypt, transfer, and reconcile collected data for RelativityOne, downstream eDiscovery workflows, or approved service providers. Develop, document, and continuously improve collection methodologies, technical procedures, quality controls, source documentation, and job aids to support repeatability, defensibility, and auditability. Stay informed about eDiscovery and digital-forensics technologies and best practices, and apply relevant developments to improve collection processes.

Support declarations, depositions, or testimony regarding collection methods and validity, as needed, and escalate collection limitations, preservation risks, source gaps, and unexpected findings. What you have
