Product Manager I **Hybrid in Horsham, PA

About Our Team

For over 50 years, LexisNexis Reed Technology has partnered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to deliver high-quality, secure, and scalable patent data processing solutions. Our work sits at the core of the patent ecosystem, transforming complex, unstructured submissions into standardized, searchable outputs that power examiner workflows and public dissemination.

We operate in a highly regulated environment with strict security requirements, large-scale data volumes, and complex business rules. Our focus is on modernizing legacy workflows through automation, AI, and platform transformation to improve efficiency, accuracy, and cost effectiveness.

About the Role

We are seeking a Product Manager I to support the modernization of patent data processing workflows across pre-grant and grant operations. This role will focus on improving operational efficiency, reducing manual effort, and enabling scalable automation across core processing pipelines.

You will own a defined product area or feature set and be responsible for executing against a roadmap that drives measurable outcomes, including productivity gains and cost reduction. You will work closely with engineering, operations, and data teams to identify automation opportunities, validate hypotheses, and deliver solutions that improve both internal workflows and downstream customer value. This role requires strong analytical thinking, comfort with ambiguity, and a willingness to challenge assumptions. You will be expected to connect product decisions directly to economic outcomes, not just feature delivery.

***Conditions of Employment:

You must be a U.S. citizen to apply for this position.

You must successfully pass a background investigation and achieve Public Trust security clearance.

Must be located near the Horsham, PA location for a Hybrid onsite schedule

• Contribute to experimentation with agentic workflows and microtask-based automation pipelines.

• Engage with internal users to understand pain points and validate solutions.
• Represent customer needs to engineering and cross-functional teams.
• Communicate product progress, insights, and outcomes to stakeholders.

• Delivered features that are adopted in operations and measurably improve efficiency
