Senior Patent Attorney, Video Compression

Full-time

Ofinno

Senior Patent Attorney, Video Compression

About Ofinno:
Ofinno is a leading research and development lab headquartered in Reston, Virginia, specializing in advancing communication and media standards. Our team’s innovative work has led to significant contributions to technologies such as 5G cellular, Wi-Fi, and media compression. Ofinno holds strategic partnerships and licensing agreements with several of the world’s leading technology companies that use such technologies. At Ofinno, we foster an environment of collaboration and excellence, where researchers can focus on delivering breakthroughs that shape the future of technology.

Position Overview:
Ofinno relies on our technical 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. The Senior Patent Attorney's primary responsibility is to address all IP needs of the business related to Ofinno’s Advanced Media Lab team, including working closely with inventors to evaluate, draft, file, and prosecute patent applications before the USPTO and foreign counterparts. 

Depending on skills and experience, the applicant may be considered for a role as (Senior) Patent Attorney or (Senior) Patent Agent. This position may be filled at different career levels based on a candidate's qualifications. As a result, the posted salary range reflects the full range across those levels.

Key Responsibilities:
As a Senior Patent Attorney, you will:
  • Draft and prosecute patent applications, including patents for standardized technologies in the media coding technologies such as point-cloud coding, 3D mesh coding, and video compression.
  • Work closely with Ofinno’s Video Compression inventors in the drafting and prosecution of patents before the USPTO and foreign counterparts
  • Advise overseas attorneys on applications for foreign patent applications
  • Manage Ofinno’s Video Compression patent portfolio
  • Create presentations and reports of patent matters and patent portfolios
  • Review patent applications by:
    • 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
As part of your application, please submit two writing samples.
The writing samples preferably include:
  1. A patent application you wrote in video compression technology
  2. 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.
Qualifications:
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
  • License to practice before a State Bar (Virginia preferred) and the USPTO
  • 3+ years of experience drafting and prosecuting patents, managing portfolios, performing patent analysis, and developing patent strategies
  • Experience with media compression technologies such as point-cloud coding, 3D mesh coding, or video compression
  • Familiarity with video compression standards (e.g., MPEG standards) is preferred
What else you should know:
Our people are our business. We know you have to see it to believe it, but here are some of the perks you can count on:
  • 401(k) matching -- We help you plan and save for retirement with a 401(k) matching program that’s available on day one.
