Who We Are:
Ofinno is a leading research and development lab for 5G/6G, Next-Gen Wi-Fi, and video compression technologies. Home to some of the world’s most prolific inventors, Ofinno helps companies stay ahead of the technological curve by outsourcing their R&D from ideation to delivery.
We are growing rapidly, and we need hard-working people to keep our enterprise at the leading edge of innovation. Our legal team works shoulder-to-shoulder with the technology team, from the conception of a new idea until the moment the patent is received. The end result is an industry-recognized portfolio, with global reach, at the core of next-generation tech.
Cross-training is what separates Ofinno from other R&D labs. We challenge our attorneys and agents to master the technical concepts underlying our inventors’ ideas. At the same time, our legal team is expected to educate our inventors on the legal aspects of intellectual property. Ofinno’s culture of mutual learning and collaboration is unique among R&D labs, and absolutely can not be duplicated at a law firm.
To join Ofinno, please submit a resume, cover letter, and some writing samples. The writing samples preferably include: (a) a patent application that you have written in the area of 4G, 5G, 6G or Wi-Fi technology; and (b) at least one response to a USPTO or EPO Office Action.
For the Office Action Response, we are particularly interested in the persuasiveness of your arguments regarding novelty and non-obviousness. We would like to see your best arguments regarding novelty or non-obviousness (for example, without relying on substantive claim amendments to overcome a rejection). Please do not provide Office Action responses that are primarily focused on 35 U.S.C. § 101 or 112.
