Tasks
We are looking for a sharp, commercially-minded Patent Counsel to serve as a strategic partner for a portfolio of high-growth tech startups. This isn't just about "checking boxes"—you will be at the intersection of cutting-edge hardware and agile software, navigating the complex landscapes that define the future of technology.

* Manage the IP portfolio of startups and coordinate external attorneys
Requirements
* Qualification: Fully qualified patent attorney (US, EPO and/or Germany).
* Expertise: Significant experience in semiconductors, physics and electronics.
* Language Skills: Professional fluency in German and English
* Startup DNA: You thrive in fast-paced environments. You are pragmatic, proactive, and capable of explaining complex legal concepts to non-lawyers.
* Attention to Detail: An uncompromising eye for detail without losing sight of the "big picture" business objectives.
* You are a good communicator. You can put your ideas into words.
Benefits
* Direct impact on the growth of the European Deep Tech and Semiconductor ecosystem.
* High level of autonomy and responsibility from day one.
* You can work part-time or full-time.
* You will work remotely.
* You will work with startup founders that are changing the world.
* You will work like an inhouse patent attorney for 10 startups.
* You will not bill by the hour. You will not draft patent applications.
* A collaborative environment where patent expertise is viewed as a driver of innovation, not a bottleneck: You will work in a team with an experienced lawyer, patent attorneys and IP managers.
