Job Purpose
Keeping a patent or trademark alive around the world takes a huge amount of work: filing in each country, translating applications, paying renewals on time, recording every change of ownership. It is high volume, deadline‑critical, and still with limited automations. RWS is building the AI‑powered engine that changes that, and we are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own it. The role is hands on. You will spend time with attorneys, in‑house IP teams and operations people who live in this work, work closely with engineers and designers, and move from problem to working software with as few hand‑offs as possible. We will make sure you have the AI you need to move at pace.
Key Responsibilities
- Own a product area covering both established services and new AI‑driven automation
- Spend time with patent attorneys & administrators, in‑house IP teams and IP operations, and turn what you learn into clear priorities
- Lead discovery and experimentation: map how the work really happens, prototype, and test with the people who use it
- Design AI agent workflows that handle routine transactions end to end and keep people in the loop for the complex cases
- Improve the core services, with a focus on speed, reliability and adoption
- Carry a margin target for your area, and connect the product work to it
- Support launches alongside Sales, Marketing and Operations
Skills & Experience
- Solid product management experience
- Experience in B2B SaaS, workflow software or technology‑enabled services (bonus)
- Strong discovery instincts and the ability to turn customer insight into product direction
- A knack for mapping a real‑world business process and seeing where automation creates value
- Technical fluency and confidence working closely with engineers on software, data, integrations and AI workflows
- Practical experience with generative AI or AI agents
- A genuine working partnership with UX
- Commercial judgement and an instinct for connecting user problems to business value
- Comfort with pace, ambiguity, and modern ways of working
Useful but not essential: experience in legal tech, IP, or patents; workflow automation, case management or high‑volume transactional operations; other document‑heavy or trust‑sensitive domains.
