[Hiring] Intellectual Property Law Expert @Turing

Role Description

Turing invites Intellectual Property law experts to join projects that fine-tune AI models like ChatGPT. You will apply your expertise in patent prosecution, trademark registration, copyright protection, and trade secret litigation to evaluate how AI reasons about IP-related legal questions. If you enjoy analyzing novelty, infringement claims, and licensing structures, this is your opportunity. No prior AI experience is required — your background in U.S. IP law is exactly what’s needed.

• Review and evaluate AI-generated responses to U.S. intellectual property hypotheticals, including patent eligibility (Alice/Mayo), trademark likelihood of confusion, copyright fair use analysis, and trade secret misappropriation.
• Apply a structured legal rubric to assess issue spotting, accuracy of IP doctrines, and proper application of the Patent Act, Lanham Act, and Copyright Act.
• Identify gaps in AI reasoning around claim construction, prior art analysis, distinctiveness, and DMCA safe harbors.
• Provide detailed, high-quality annotations and written feedback to refine AI models.
• Collaborate with researchers and project managers to align evaluation standards and project goals.

Qualifications

• Juris Doctor (J.D.) from an accredited U.S. law school; Bar admission (active/inactive). Patent Bar registration is a plus.
• 3+ years of U.S. legal practice in intellectual property (patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets).
• Strong reasoning skills across IP prosecution, litigation, licensing, and enforcement.
• Excellent written communication and attention to detail.
• High ethical standards; interest in AI is a plus.

Requirements

• Flexible, 10–30 hrs/week commitment.
• Duration: ~1 month, with the possibility of extension based on performance and project needs.

Benefits

• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading LLM companies.
• Competitive compensation.
• Flexible, fully remote work arrangement.
• Learn how to use AI to advance the legal field.
