Requirements:

• Recognized expertise in Data Discovery and Enrichment, with a track record of independently leading taxonomy, classification, or content enrichment projects.
• Direct practitioner experience in one or more of the following: FRAND licensing or negotiation, technical SEP essentiality analysis, or SEP portfolio management at a patent holder, implementer, law firm, or patent pool.
• Working knowledge of one or more major standards bodies and their associated patent ecosystems: 3GPP/ETSI (4G/5G), IEEE (Wi-Fi, Ethernet), MPEG or AOM video codecs, JEDEC, or ITU.
• Experience analyzing patent portfolios at scale, not only individual patents.
• Ability to articulate technical quality judgments in precise written form suitable for evaluation calibration and governance documentation.
• Comfortable working across engineering, product, and legal functions without relying on formal authority.
• Bachelors degree in engineering, computer science, law, or a related technical field, or equivalent professional experience.

Responsibilities:

• Define and maintain the quality evaluation standard for SEP question classes, including essentiality assessment, royalty range analysis, FRAND exposure, and SEP portfolio intelligence.
• Author acceptance criteria for new AI capabilities before engineering begins and participate in sprint planning as a named quality authority.
• Build and maintain the curated evaluation question set used across automated testing and release governance regimes.
• Calibrate automated evaluation systems by reviewing AI outputs against expert judgment and documenting overrides with traceable reasoning.
• Hold release gate authority for SEP question classes and prevent AI updates that degrade quality below the defined bar from proceeding to production.
• Define and maintain the methodology for SEP landscape construction, including technology scoping, classification logic, and completeness criteria.
• Deliver bespoke landscape engagements for high-value customer projects and own the quality benchmark for automated landscape generation.
• Lead quarterly structured sessions with FRAND practitioners, licensing executives, and patent pool representatives to surface new failure modes and align evaluation criteria with practitioner expectations.
