JOB OVERVIEW

We are seeking an experienced Trademark Research & Filing Specialist to help us research and file approximately 40 U.S. trademark applications over an 8-12 week period.

This is a project-based contract role with clear deliverables and timelines. You will work directly with a U.S.-based founder and leadership team.

We are looking for someone who has real hands-on experience inside the USPTO system — not just theoretical knowledge.

If you’ve prepared TEAS applications, conducted clearance searches, selected proper classes, and handled Office Actions before — this is for you.

Project Scope
- Research approximately 40 brand names, phrases, and marks.
- Conduct comprehensive clearance searches (TESS + common law review).
- Assess potential conflicts and provide risk summaries.
- Recommend appropriate International Classes.
- Prepare and file applications via USPTO TEAS.
- Track deadlines and maintain an organized filing log.
- Assist with non-substantive USPTO correspondence if needed.
- Coordinate status updates weekly.

We want clean, accurate filings. No shortcuts. No guessing on classes.

What We’re Looking For
- 3+ years hands-on experience with U.S. trademark filings.
- Direct experience using USPTO TEAS and TESS systems.
- Strong understanding of International Classes and identification of goods/services.
- Experience preparing Office Action responses (non-substantive required; substantive a plus).
- Excellent written English.
- Extremely detail-oriented.
- Organized and deadline-driven.
- Paralegal or IP law background preferred, but not required if experience is strong.

Timeline & Expectations
- Project length: 8-12 weeks.
- Approximately 5–6 applications researched and prepared per week.
- Clear weekly reporting.
- Flexible schedule, but must overlap at least 2–3 hours with U.S. EST time.

Compensation
- Project-based compensation. Please include your rate per application or weekly rate in your application.

How to Apply
Step 1: In 2–3 paragraphs, describe your direct USPTO trademark experience. Be specific.
Step 2: Tell us how many applications you have personally filed.
Step 3: Describe one Office Action you handled and how you resolved it.
Step 4: Use the subject line: “Trademark Precision.”
Step 5: When applying, include the number 40 in your message so we know you read this fully.

We are ready to begin immediately.

Please apply only through OnlineJobs.ph. Do not contact outside the platform.
