About the role

Greenberg Traurig seeks a patent agent with 2–4 years in life sciences to evaluate portfolios and perform due diligence. You will draft and prosecute patent applications and manage portfolios for clients in biotechnology fields. The role requires USPTO registration, excellent academic credentials, and the ability to work closely with clients and teams across offices. A life sciences advanced degree is preferred, and firm experience is valued.

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.
