About the role

Charles River Associates seeks a highly experienced Principal in Forensic Services to lead detailed investigations of source code and related systems in copyright/patent infringement matters. You will oversee teams, coordinate with counsel, and deliver technically sound expert analyses. The role requires 10+ years in liability analysis within litigation, strong programming knowledge (C/Java/Python), and the ability to travel for client projects.

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.
