Patent Litigator

🎯 Are you a patent litigator with a technical edge who wants more than just billable hours? Do you want to shape litigation product strategy for the fastest-growing AI company in IP? Do you want to own how we evolve the patent litigation product at a company that's rewriting the rules?

This is your chance to join a rocket ship! πŸš€

πŸ—οΈ About the role

We are looking for a super smart and talented Patent Litigator to lead and build out our patent litigation capability as we launch Charts, our new patent litigation product.

You'll be joining the most lean, talent-dense, and fast-moving legal team in London.

You'll be responsible for:

  • Conducting infringement and validity analysis across technical domains
  • Advising on litigation risk and developing strategic recommendations for clients using the platform
  • Working directly with the engineering and AI teams to shape how Charts handles litigation workflows
  • Supporting patent prosecution-to-litigation handoffs across the IP lifecycle
  • Contributing to product development by translating litigation expertise into platform features
  • Managing relationships with outside counsel and coordinating multi-jurisdictional matters

πŸ‘€ About you

As our founding Patent Litigator, you will have extensive experience handling complex patent disputes through associate or senior associate roles at top-tier litigation firms.

  • 3+ years of experience as an associate or senior associate in patent litigation
  • Technical background β€” ideally a patent attorney who moved into patent litigation (technical field agnostic: life sciences, electronics, mechanical, etc.)
  • Super smart, hard working, and high agency β€” the kind of person who thrives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
  • Experience at elite patent litigation firms (e.g. Quinn Emanuel, Kirkland & Ellis, or equivalent calibre)
  • Strong analytical and strategic thinking with the ability to break down complex technical and legal issues
  • Based in NYC or London

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer β€” it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet β€” that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
