Apple is seeking a Sr. IP Counsel to help drive IP strategy and negotiations on behalf of its engineering groups and business units. You will handle cutting-edge intellectual property issues, working closely with other legal professionals and senior Apple executives. This includes transactions covering all forms of intellectual property, technology licenses and development agreements, IP dispute resolution, and IP licensing.
Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming great products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion and dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish. Do you possess a passion for strategic thinking? Working for a company that invents entire categories and industries means you’ll dive deep into understanding technologies that the public won’t know about for years to come, and be challenged to creatively apply your deep legal expertise to rare and often unexplored aspects of the law.
We are looking for brilliant IP strategist and negotiator with great judgment and a demonstrated ability to manage the day-to-day progress of complex disputes and negotiations. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who already has the experience needed to hit the ground running.
