About Ofinno:
Ofinno is a leading research and development lab headquartered in Reston, Virginia, specializing in advancing communication and media standards. Our team’s innovative work has led to significant contributions to technologies such as 5G cellular, Wi-Fi, and media compression. Ofinno holds strategic partnerships and licensing agreements with several of the world’s leading technology companies that use such technologies. At Ofinno, we foster an environment of collaboration and excellence, where researchers can focus on delivering breakthroughs that shape the future of technology.
Position Overview:
Ofinno is seeking a technically skilled and detail-oriented Senior Patent Attorney or Agent to support our Next Generation Wi-Fi team. In this role, you will work closely with inventors to draft, file, and prosecute high-quality patent applications related to Wi-Fi and IEEE 802.11 technologies across U.S. and international jurisdictions.
This position offers the opportunity to contribute directly to the development of a world-class patent portfolio in wireless communications. 
Depending on qualifications and experience, candidates will be considered for either the Patent Attorney/Agent or the Senior Patent Attorney/Agent role. This position may be filled at different career levels based on a candidate's qualifications. As a result, the posted salary range reflects the full range across those levels.
Key Responsibilities:
As a (Senior) Patent Attorney or Agent, you will:

The writing samples preferably include:
  1. A patent application you wrote in the area of Wi-Fi technology
  2. At least one response to a USPTO or EPO Office Action, appeal brief, or Inter Partes Review submission, demonstrating your argumentation skills around novelty and non-obviousness (for example, without relying on substantive claim amendments to overcome a rejection). Please avoid submissions focused primarily on 35 U.S.C. § 101 or § 112.
Qualifications:
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field encompassing wireless communications (Master's degree or higher preferred)
  • Active registration to practice before the USPTO (EPO registration is a plus)
  • 4+ years of patent preparation and prosecution experience (2+ years of experience working with wireless technologies preferred)
  • Familiarity with EPO prosecution is a plus
  • Strong organizational skills, technical acumen, and writing ability
  • Demonstrated reliability, professionalism, and ability to collaborate effectively
