Jamie Miller

I bridge the gap between complex subsurface science and actionable intellectual property strategy. With a Master’s degree in Earth and Planetary Science and hands-on experience as a Patent Engineer for a high-growth geothermal startup, I specialize in translating sophisticated technical data into high-value assets and regulatory frameworks.

Following a structured period focused on a strategic family relocation to Florida, I am now re-entering the professional landscape. I am seeking a "roots-down" opportunity in the Greater West Palm Beach / Jupiter / Treasure Coast area where I can apply my expertise in geotech, environmental science, or technical writing.

I am driven by projects that offer long-term institutional stability and the opportunity to solve environmental or infrastructural challenges in Florida’s unique geological landscape.

Open to discussions regarding Environmental Consulting, Water Management, and Technology Transfer roles.

Scientific Analysis: Computational modeling, surface and subsurface systems, and planetary data analysis.

Assets Strategy: Patent drafting, data/invention mining, technical specification writing, SOPs, and competitive landscape analysis.

Strategic Communication: Translating "lab-bench" science for stakeholders, legal teams, and regulatory bodies.
