D. E. Shaw Research is seeking an Intellectual Property Attorney to join our Drug Discovery and Development team, reporting directly to the head of the group. This role offers a unique opportunity to work closely with our internal program teams to develop a deep understanding of each program's goals and challenges, stay abreast of progress and timelines, and play a pivotal role in crafting and implementing our IP strategy.

The successful hire will oversee all aspects of intellectual property activities within drug discovery and development and will be encouraged to think deeply and creatively to maximize protection of our assets. Responsibilities will include gathering data and experimental procedures to craft our patent applications, managing our drug discovery and development patent portfolio, working with outside counsel for filing and prosecution, and providing freedom-to-operate (FTO) and patentability guidance to program teams. While patent work will be the primary focus, the role may also involve pitching in on certain aspects of transactional and due diligence projects.

Candidates must have a Master's or Doctorate in organic or medicinal chemistry, a Juris Doctor (JD) degree, and be registered to practice before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). At least four years of patent prosecution experience, either in a law firm or an in-house biotech/pharma setting, is required. The ideal candidate will have a strong track record in managing patent portfolios throughout the drug discovery and development process, including early-stage medicinal chemistry, formulation development, and dosing regimens. Demonstrated aptitude and experience in conceiving inventions, especially composition of matter, is essential. Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively across scientific and business teams are essential.

We are looking to add innovative contributors who share our commitment to fostering a stimulating, positive, and collaborative work environment.

The expected annual base salary for this position is $350,000–$600,000. Our compensation package also includes variable compensation in the form of sign-on and year-end bonuses, and generous benefits, including relocation and immigration assistance. The applicable annual base salary paid to a successful applicant will be determined based on multiple factors, including the nature and extent of prior experience and educational background. We follow a hybrid work schedule, in which employees work from the office on Tuesday through Thursday and have the option of working from home on Monday and Friday.
