Intellectual Property Analyst

While this role requires a strong understanding of patent preparation and prosecution, it will primarily focus on IP strategy, portfolio management, and collaboration with outside counsel rather than direct drafting of patent applications or office action responses. The ideal candidate will be highly analytical, organized, and proactive in identifying opportunities for IP protection and risk mitigation.

We are seeking a confident IP professional who excels in communication and stakeholder engagement. The most qualified candidate will integrate closely with business and engineering teams, becoming a trusted resource for patentability assessments, clearance evaluations, IP contracting, and overall intellectual property guidance. Exceptional performance in this role will open doors for growth opportunities within the organization.
