We need a rare hybrid - a **Legal and Product Engineer** who sits at the exact intersection of patent law and AI innovation to ensure our engine is technically superior and legally airtight. 🏗️ **The Role: Legal and Product Engineer** This isn't your typical client-facing role or traditional R&D position. You are the bridge between the complex nuances of patent practice and the cutting-edge AI technology transforming it. You will translate the "language of law" into the "logic of code." **What you’ll own:** * **AI Output Engineering:** Partner with our AI researchers to iterate on algorithms and prompt engineering, specializing our LLMs for patent-specific tasks like claim analysis, prior art comparison, and obviousness assessments. * **Legal Benchmarking:** Build proprietary datasets and evaluation frameworks to measure AI performance against real-world USPTO and international patent office requirements. * **Product Roadmap:** Serve as the internal voice of the practitioner. You’ll translate deep client insights from global firms into high-priority product features. * **Strategic Partnership:** Act as a technical thought partner for IP teams at firms like DLA Piper, leading pilots and ensuring our AI scales seamlessly across their prosecution and litigation workflows. * **Playbook Development:** Document and scale best practices for AI adoption across diverse sectors, from biotech to deep-tech software. 💡 **About Solve Intelligence** We’re the fastest-growing startup transforming the IP industry. * **Traction:** 20-30% MoM revenue growth; selling to 600+ global IP teams (DLA Piper, tech boutiques, and global enterprises). * **Proven Value:** Users report 50-90% efficiency gains using our AI platform. * **Backing:** Recently featured in [Sifted](https://sifted.eu/articles/solve-intelligence-visionaries-20vc) following our **$40M Series B** announcement, bringing our total funding to **$55M** from elite investors including **Y Combinator, 20VC, Visionaries and others**. 👋 **Your Team** You’ll work directly with a founding team of AI PhDs and systems experts: * [Sanj](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanj-ahilan-844b33137/) **(CRO):** PhD in AI (Gatsby Unit, UCL), ex-Huawei R&D, former lead at Magic Carpet AI (acquired). * [Chris](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-parsonson/) **(CEO):** PhD in AI (UCL), published researcher, ex-Dyson and Alan Turing Institute. * [Angus](https://www.linkedin.com/in/angus-parsonson/) **(CTO):** MEng Computer Science, ex-Qualcomm and Coremont (Brevan Howard). 🚀 **Who You Are** We are a high-performance culture of "hackers" and builders. * **Bilingual:** You can speak "Patent" to an attorney and "Prompt" to an engineer without losing anything in translation. * **Speed & Feedback:** You want to put tools in users' hands in days, not months, and you thrive on rapid iteration. * **Extreme Ownership:** You take responsibility for the accuracy of our AI's legal reasoning and the success of our global client deployments. * **Driven & Humble:** You are a high-achiever willing to go the extra mile to tackle unsolved AI problems in the patent space. 🛠️ **What You Bring** **Must-Haves:** * **Qualified Professional:** Admitted to practice before the USPTO, EPO or JPO. * **3+ Years Experience:** Direct experience in patent prosecution, understanding the "pain points" of the industry first-hand. * **Technical Foundation:** Undergraduate degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or Life Sciences. **Preferred & Nice-to-Haves:** * **AI Tinkerer:** Hands-on experience with prompt engineering and LLM tools. * **Client-Facing Pro:** Proven ability to manage relationships and lead strategic product demos. * **Coder-Lite:** Familiarity with Python or a background in software development. * **Visionary:** A deep belief that AI will fundamentally redefine the legal landscape. 🎁 **What We Offer** * **Competitive Salary + Significant Equity:** We want you to have true ownership in the success of the company. * **Founding Impact:** You will be the architect of how AI is applied to patent law globally. * **Support:** Full visa sponsorship and private medical insurance. * **The Environment:** Free meals and a seat at the table with an incredibly smart, ambitious team.
