About this position

Technical Transfer Service Co., Ltd. is seeking patent searchers for its Registered Search Organizations Division in Tokyo. The role supports the Japan Patent Office through commissioned prior-art searches for patent examination.

Working closely with patent examiners, the searcher will understand the outline of an invention, identify relevant prior art, explain the invention and search findings, report the results, and propose possible directions for examination. The position combines advanced scientific knowledge with technical communication and presentation skills, and is suited to researchers who want to apply their expertise to patent evaluation and administrative decision-making.

The company is expanding its chemistry-related activities and is particularly interested in expertise involving organic compounds, agrochemicals, dyes, petrochemicals, applied organic materials, inks, cosmetics, emulsification, dispersion, and microcapsules. The broader research environment covers organic synthesis chemistry, polymer chemistry, polymer materials, organic functional materials, and inorganic substances and materials chemistry. Because searches frequently involve English patent documents, experience reading English papers and patents is valuable.

Searchers work within established departments and engage in one-to-one dialogue with Japan Patent Office examiners. The organization includes researchers and professionals with research backgrounds, offering an applied environment at the intersection of chemistry, materials science, patent analysis, and public-sector examination.

Funding details

Annual income starts at 3,000,000 yen. During the four-month training period, the monthly salary is 220,000 yen, with guaranteed first-year annual income of 3,200,000 yen.

Benefits include bonuses twice a year, a retirement allowance system, commuting allowance subject to restrictions, and social insurance.

What's required

Applicants must hold a four-year university degree in science or engineering, with a Ph.D., master's, or bachelor's degree accepted. Candidates must have cumulative research and development experience at one company in science, engineering, or medicine: at least four years generally, at least two years for master's degree holders, and no experience requirement for doctorate holders. Specialized knowledge in organic compounds, agrochemicals, dyes, petrochemicals, applied organic materials, inks, cosmetics, emulsification, dispersion, or microcapsules is especially welcome. Applicants should be able to read English technical documents such as papers and patents and should be capable of structurally understanding technical documents, formulating hypotheses, making proposals, and potentially working with AI tools. Successful completion of the INPIT Survey Worker Training Course and its examinations is required for formal employment.

How to apply

Email a resume and work history to [email protected], password-protecting the documents and sending the password in a separate email. Postal submission is also accepted at the listed Tokyo address. Applications must arrive by February 10, 2027.
