Intellectual Property Attorney for AI Model Training

Join a groundbreaking initiative to build realistic enterprise environments for frontier AI agents. As an experienced intellectual-property attorney, you will recreate the digital workspaces that define your daily practice and design tasks that challenge state-of-the-art AI.

• Design multi-step tasks based on your real workflows, structured around end-to-end client engagements (origination, prosecution/strategy, ongoing counseling, enforcement/litigation), requiring navigation through multiple apps, files, and stakeholders to effectively challenge frontier AI agents.
• Collaborate with fellow IP attorneys to design the environment, shape task scope, and review each other''s scenarios for realism and rigor.
• Work asynchronously with research teams to refine task designs and establish evaluation criteria for IP-law agent benchmarks.
• Contribute to frontier AI research and benchmarking, with your work directly informing how leading labs train and evaluate the next generation of AI systems.
