The role:
We are looking for an
IP Technical Manager
who can become the primary technical interface between our inventors (engineers/researchers) and our patent attorneys. You'll take ownership of the operational and technical side of our IP process — reviewing drafts, evaluating search reports, coordinating prosecution decisions — while escalating only the genuinely strategic calls to leadership.
What You'll Do:
- Be the main point of contact
between iPronics' technical team (inventors) and our external patent attorneys, managing this relationship primarily via email/written correspondence.
- Review and respond to attorney communications
, including IP drafts, EPO search reports, and prosecution strategy decisions — providing informed technical and strategic input on our behalf.
- Attend weekly technical meetings
with the engineering team to stay close to ongoing developments and proactively identify and propose new patentable ideas.
- Make independent decisions
on the majority of day-to-day IP matters, escalating only high-stakes or strategic issues.
- Track and manage the patent pipeline
— deadlines, prosecution status, filing decisions — across our existing patents and the incoming pipeline.
- 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.
What We're Looking For:
- 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).
