iPronics is a deep-tech startup developing silicon photonics optical circuit switches. We are looking for an IP Technical Manager who can become the primary technical interface between our inventors (engineers/researchers) and our patent attorneys. Be the main point of contact between iPronics' technical team (inventors) and our external patent attorneys, managing this relationship primarily via email/written correspondence.
Translate between worlds : convert technical/engineering detail into language attorneys can act on, and convert legal/IP request into something the technical team can engage with.
Help build and refine internal processes for invention disclosure, prior-art awareness, and patent strategy as the company scales.
2+ years of experience working with patents and IP ,



ideally including direct interaction with patent attorneys and exposure to EPO processes (search reports, prosecution, office actions).
~2+ years of experience in related technical projects — you don't need to be a photonics expert, but you need enough technical fluency to engage meaningfully with engineers and understand what's actually novel.
~ Expertise in silicon photonics, photonics in general, integrated photonics, or semiconductors.
Experience building or improving internal IP processes from a relatively early stage.
Permanent full-time position
