About Ankar
Ankar's buyers are the people who create and protect inventions: in-house patent counsel and R&D and innovation teams at large companies (L'Oréal is a named customer, and its site points to semiconductor, aeronautics and automotive users) and patent law firms such as Vorys. Two founding account executives carry the number: one in London selling enterprise and mid-market accounts at $50K to $100K-plus ACV, the other in New York building the US, which the posting calls the largest market, where Ankar already books mid-five to mid-six figure ARR without a local team and targets deals of $100K to $1M ACV. Beside them sit three customer-embedded roles in the go-to-market group, a Patent Product Engineer, a life sciences Patent Engineer for pharma and biotech biologics work, and a GTM, Strategy and Delivery generalist, each running proofs of concept and adoption with customer teams. Those five are the commercial share of 12 openings, split between London and New York.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
