Senior Patent Counsel San Francisco, CA (Hybrid) (970-SLS)

About the role

Our client, a publicly traded digital health company leveraging technology and AI to transform care delivery, has exclusively retained Solutus Legal Search to assist the executives in their search for a Senior Patent Counsel. This role reports to the Associate General Counsel, Product, and will work closely with other members of the Legal & Compliance team, as well as cross-functional stakeholders across the organization - including access to senior leadership. Our client is seeking a strategic and hands-on Senior Patent Counsel who will build and manage the company's intellectual property portfolio and who is comfortable (indeed eager) to adopt AI tools to help them move faster and more efficiently. As the first dedicated in-house patent attorney, you will take ownership of the company's growing intellectual property portfolio, moving beyond management to active creation. This role will own patent strategy end-to-end: you will use AI to draft patent applications in-house, drive invention harvesting across the organization, and work closely with outside counsel to secure granted patents. This is a high-impact role for someone who wants to build the internal IP infrastructure for a market-leading digital health company, working directly with advanced AI tools, engineers, product managers, and clinical experts to align the IP strategy with the product roadmap which includes AI-driven care, computer vision, wearable technology and broader aspects of care automation. The role offers a competitive compensation package, including a base salary range of $216,000 - $324,000, together with eligibility for equity participation. The company also offers comprehensive benefits, including retirement plans with company match, modern life stipends, and support for family and wellness needs. Total compensation is designed to align with the scope and impact of the position. Solutus Legal Search is proud to have been exclusively retained to assist our client with this special engagement. Resumes submitted directly to our client will be forwarded to Solutus Legal for evaluation. Ref. #970-SLS
