Lead II, IP Counsel

At ASM, we view our intellectual property as one of our critical assets to enable success in the marketplace. As an IP Counsel in our Phoenix office, you are primarily responsible for intellectual property management linked to process and engineering activities globally. This includes maintaining close contact with the inventor community and staying in touch with R&D activities to harvest invention disclosures, managing a diverse technology portfolio, and determining the global intellectual property protection strategy aligned with business leadership. This isn’t for the faint at heart, but for those who are focused, self-motivated and have impeccable problem-solving skills.

You will be trusted to take full ownership of your projects – with the right balance of support and autonomy. You will report to the IP Counsel team lead and will be embedded in one of our Business Units. You will have a strong working relation with your IP Counsel colleagues across the globe, as well as Patent Counsels whose focus is preparation and prosecution of patent applications. You will be part of ASM’s global IP and licensing team with representation in the US, Japan, Korea, Belgium, Italy, Finland and the Netherlands.

ASM is a fast-growing company with a dynamic environment requiring an ambitious team. We are committed to supporting and growing our people to meet the ever-growing demands of the business.

This role is based in Phoenix, Arizona. In this position, required travel will be limited to two weeks per year. Regular travel is not required but could be accommodated if interested.
