Job Description

Company Description

Ofinno is a leading research and development lab for 5G/6G, Next-Gen Wi-Fi, and video compression technologies. Home to some of the world's most prolific inventors, Ofinno provides comprehensive R&D services to help companies stay ahead of the technological curve.

We are growing rapidly, and we seek hard-working people to keep our enterprise at the leading edge of innovation. Our legal team works shoulder-to-shoulder with our technology experts, from the conception of a new idea until the moment the patent is received. The result is an industry-recognized patent portfolio, with global reach, at the core of next-generation technologies.

Ofinno's cross-training is what separates us from other R&D labs. Our attorneys and patent agents are challenged to master the underlying technical concepts of our inventors' ideas. At the same time, our legal team is expected to educate our inventors on the legal aspects of intellectual property. Ofinno's culture of mutual learning and collaboration is unique among R&D labs, and absolutely cannot be duplicated at a law firm.

To join Ofinno, please submit a resume, cover letter, and some writing samples. The writing samples preferably include: (a) a patent application that you have written in the area of 4G, 5G, 6G or Wi-Fi technology; and (b) at least one response to a USPTO or EPO Office Action.

For the Office Action Response, we are particularly interested in the persuasiveness of your arguments regarding novelty and non-obviousness. We would like to see your best arguments regarding novelty or non-obviousness (for example, without relying on substantive claim amendments to overcome a rejection). Please do not provide Office Action responses that are primarily focused on 35 U.S.C. § 101 or 112.

Job Description

The open position is for a Patent Attorney. Ofinno has a similar position for a Patent Agent. Depending on skills and experience, the applicant may be considered for a role as Senior Patent Attorney or Senior Patent Agent.

The Patent Attorney will report to the IP Director for 5G/6G at our offices in Reston, Virginia. The Patent Attorney's primary responsibility is to prosecute patent applications, including patents for standard-essential technologies in the 5G/6G technology area.

Ofinno relies on our tech experts to help interpret the cited art and identify distinctions. Our legal team is able to focus on crafting persuasive arguments, which helps Ofinno to obtain quality patents on a compact schedule. Ofinno's patent portfolio has global reach, and our legal team is responsible for coordinating prosecution strategies across multiple global jurisdictions.

Other responsibilities include:
  • Reviewing patent applications
    • Assisting with drafting of specifications, figures, and claims
    • Assisting with filings and payments of fees
    • Searching prior art for relevant subject matter
    • Helping to prepare client presentations

The candidate has an undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science, and has experience with 4G, 5G, 6G or Wi-Fi technology.
