About the role

Clarivate is seeking a Patent Classifier to determine CPC/USPC classifications for patent applications using both technical research and automated tools. You will classify applications, expand expertise across technologies, and work within a collaborative team to maintain high production and quality standards. The role requires a Bachelor's degree in CS/CE/EE, and 6+ months of research or internship experience, with strict US work eligibility and residency requirements.

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.
