NLPatent is an industry leading AI-first patent research platform that was an early mover in the application of Large Language Models. We use a combination of proprietary and off-the-shelf machine learning models and NLP techniques to help our users answer patent related research questions such as "Is my invention patentable?". Increasingly, we're using generative LLMs to build agentic workflows that answer research questions without any human intervention.
As a staff level applied scientist at NLPatent, you'll be the technical lead for all data and NLP related work at NLPatent. You'll be responsible for improving search performance (precision and recall), optimizing search algorithms to ensure quick results, designing and implementing agentic workflows, building and maintaining data pipelines, and much more.
