You are a strategic partner who transforms IP data into a competitive advantage.

Key Responsibilities:

IP Analytics & Strategic Insights:

• Conduct comprehensive patent landscape, whitespace, and freedom-to-operate (FTO) analyses to identify innovation trends, partnership opportunities, and potential risks.
• Analyze competitor patent portfolios to deliver strategic intelligence, mapping their R&D focus and predicting future product direction.
• Utilize advanced search methodologies, including semantic and concept-based searching, to perform complex prior art and validity/invalidity investigations.
• Collaborate with IP attorneys and R&D teams to interpret analytical results, providing data-driven recommendations for IP strategy and risk mitigation.
• Design and build interactive dashboards (e.g., in Tableau/Power BI) to allow stakeholders to explore IP intelligence in real-time.

IP Technology & Process Enhancement:

• Leverage your programming skills (primarily Python) to automate and enhance IP workflows, from data ingestion via APIs to final analysis.
• Apply modern AI tools, including Generative AI (e.g., via APIs to Claude/GPT), to assist in summarizing and classifying large volumes of patent documents efficiently.
• Prototype and support the business teams with custom scripting and building analytical models.
• Serve as the in-house expert for our suite of IP technologies, evaluating new tools and championing the adoption of best practices across the team.
• Experience in combining IP data with business data (e.g. technology road maps, product road maps, strategy reports, financial statements, etc.)

Qualifications

Educational qualification:

• Master’s degree in a technical field (e.g., Engineering, Physics, Computer Science) is required.

Experience :

• 3-5+ years in a dedicated IP role such as Patent Analyst, IP Consultant, or Patent Search Specialist.
• Demonstrated, hands‑on expertise in conducting patent searches (landscaping, FTO, prior art) and, most importantly, analyzing the results to provide clear strategic advice.
• Experience with professional IP intelligence tools (e.g., Questel Orbit, PatBase, Derwent Innovation, etc.).
• Deep understanding of the patent lifecycle and patent law fundamentals.
• A degree or formal certification in Intellectual Property (e.g. QPIP, WON, etc.,) is a significant advantage.

Technical Proficiencies (Required):

• Data Analysis & Scripting: Strong proficiency in Python and its core data science libraries.
• Databases: Solid understanding of SQL for querying structured data (e.g. Databricks).
• Data Visualization: Proven experience creating clear and impactful reports and dashboards using visualization tools like Tableau or Power BI.
• Generative AI Integration: Familiarity with connecting data to large language models (LLMs) via APIs to create sophisticated Q&A or summarization tools (i.e., Retrieval-Augmented Generation).

Advanced & Desirable Skills (optional)

• Advanced Data Structures: Exposure to graph databases (e.g., Neo4j) for analyzing citation networks or vector databases for enabling semantic search.
• Automation & Ingestion: Experience with building automated data pipelines to gather and process IP data.
