Patent Engineer

As one of Sweden’s fastest growing technology companies, Tobii has a high level of patent growth. Our IP team is a tight knit group of high performing professionals and now we’re seeking a junior Patent Attorney to join our team.

At Tobii, we place great value on our intellectual property (IP) and we want the best people to not only make sure we have the right protection, but that we can use our IP to create business value. We are seeking a strategic thinker who is excited about technology and wants to learn and grow in the field of IP.

Are you our next Tobiian?

In this junior role, you will work within the IP team at the direction of Tobii’s Chief IP Officer and be responsible for working with all facets of Tobii’s intellectual property. You will work closely with the other members of the IP team and have the opportunity to work with a wide range of projects in an international setting in a company where you are expected to beat yesterday, every day. As one a member of our IP team you will help guide, and grow, Tobii’s patent portfolio.

Here’s what your normal day looks like:

• Prosecuting patent filings
• Drafting patent specifications
• Working closely with inventors to identify, define and protect Tobii’s innovations
• Supporting other members of the IP team and the broader organisation in patent matters
• Assisting the Legal team with IP matters as part of commercial negotiations
• Strengthen Tobii’s IP licensing program

• Understanding of intellectual property, particularly patents
• A degree in Computer Science, Electronics Engineering, Math, Physics, Optics or similar
• Qualification as a Patent Attorney is not a hard requirement; Tobii is willing to support training towards such qualification

Not a hard requirement but we find it to be a strong merit if you:

• Have a knowledge and experience in other forms of intellectual property rights such as trademarks, designs and trade secrets
• Have an outgoing and positive attitude, who shares our interest in amazing high-tech products
• Have a self-starter mindset capable of managing your own workload and meeting targets, as well as deadlines

• Can communicate in Swedish language as well
