Meet the Team – Alex Jones, VP Legal

What does it take to manage the legal frontiers of post-quantum cryptography? For Alex, our in-house legal counsel, it’s taken over 16 years of tech-law expertise and experience.

Alex joined PQShield in August 2025, and now manages commercial contract negotiation, mitigating risk, and providing management of our patent portfolio. As a qualified legal practitioner, he began as a litigation specialist and built his career at Imagination Technologies – even settling a high-profile public dispute with Apple.

At PQShield, Alex acts as a key bridge between our technology and our global customers, managing risk and expectation in the fast-moving world of quantum-resilient IP, where innovation needs to be enabled to meet real-world environments in complex organizations.

When he isn’t defending our IP or negotiating agreements, Alex stays active – you’ll likely find him playing touch rugby or out cycling! Above all though, Alex enjoys quality time with family at home.
