About the role
Apple seeks an experienced patent specialist to support its patent prosecution efforts. You will work directly with Apple internal counsel and outside counsel, handling docketing, annuities, foreign filings, and related administration.
The role requires 3+ years of paralegal experience in US and foreign patent prosecution, strong attention to detail, and proficiency with CPI, Anaqua, USPTO Patent Center, and Espacenet.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
