Cupertino, United States Apple Inc. Full time
Legal Counsel - Content, AI/ML, and Non-Patent IP Litigation

Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming great products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion and dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish. Do you love taking on big challenges without precedent? Do you possess a deep knowledge of the legal field and a passion for innovation? As a part of our Legal group, you’ll help uphold Apple’s high ethical and corporate standards, as well as defend our intellectual property. Working for a company that invents entire categories and industries means you’ll be challenged to creatively apply your deep legal expertise to rare and often unexplored aspects of the law. Together with your team, you’ll provide the critical support needed worldwide for all Apple products and businesses.

We are looking for a litigator with great judgment and communication skills, and a demonstrated ability to manage the day-to-day progress of content, AI/ML, and non-patent IP litigation cases worldwide—spanning copyright, trademark, design rights, and right of publicity. You will be a self-starter who can quickly learn Apple's content, AI/ML, and non-patent IP litigation docket and practices, identify and manage risks and exposures, find strategic opportunities for resolution, and distill complex legal concepts into practical business guidance quickly.

Description

As a member of Apple's IP Litigation case management team, you will not be merely monitoring outside counsel. Rather, you will be directly engaged in formulating and driving strategy as well as providing counsel to internal clients on content, AI/ML, and non-patent IP litigation matters across the globe and a wide range of novel copyright, trademark, design rights, and right of publicity issues. The position requires a high degree of self-sufficiency, independent judgment and a trial-focused approach. You will operate as part of a supportive and fun team of lawyers, legal specialists and support staff who work closely together to protect Apple's interests.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 5+ years of major law firm and/or in-house content (media and entertainment), AI/ML, and non-patent IP litigation experience, including litigating copyright, trademark, design rights, and right of publicity claims.
  • JD or equivalent and admission to at least one US state bar.

Preferred Qualifications

  • AI/ML and generative AI counseling experience a plus.
  • Content and rights clearance counseling experience a plus.
  • Strong technology interest and aptitude.
  • Preference given to candidates who have significant trial and/or arbitration experience.
  • Excellent communication, analytical, organization, and negotiation skills are essential.

Apple is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to inclusion and diversity. We take affirmative action to ensure equal opportunity for all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, Veteran status, or other legally protected characteristics.
