Über diese Senior Software Engineer, Privacy & Governance Services Stelle bei The New York Times

The New York Times · Hybrid · New York, NY

The mission of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It’s why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It’s why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it’s why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it’s worth paying for. 

About the Role

The Data Platform mission builds the foundational systems that power data at The New York Times. The Privacy & Governance Services team builds the tooling that makes responsible data use the default. This tooling includes services that classify data, manage access, handle retention and deletion, and give engineering teams across the company a simple, reliable way to do the right thing with sensitive data. We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to develop these systems. This is a hands-on engineering role: you'll, set technical direction, and for the engineers around you.

This is a hybrid role reporting to the Engineering Manager within the Data Platforms mission.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop, and operate production services and APIs that other engineering teams across The Times depend on for privacy and governance capabilities.

  • Build self-service tooling — SDKs, APIs, and platform integrations — that makes privacy and governance controls easy for product and data teams to adopt.

  • Develop systems for data subject request (DSR) handling, data classification, access management, data retention and deletion, and consent/age-signal handling at scale.

  • Encode our accountability model and governance scorecards into automated rules, workflows, and scorecard services that run on the data platform.

  • Own services through their full lifecycle: design, implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and on-call.

  • Lead technical design reviews, mentor engineers, and drive engineering standards within the team.

  • Partner with product, legal, privacy, governance, and other Data Platform teams to turn requirements into reliable, well-architected systems.

  • Demonstrate support and understanding of our value of journalistic independence and a strong commitment to our mission to seek the truth and help people understand the world.

Basic Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building and operating production systems

  • Proficiency in one or more languages (e.g., Go, Python, Javascript, Java, Scala, or similar)

  • Experience building services and APIs at scale

  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS or GCP) and modern deployment practices (containers, CI/CD, observability)

  • Experience working with data systems (e.g., DynamoDB or other NoSQL stores, data warehouses like BigQuery, or similar)

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with privacy, security, or governance domains such as access control, encryption, anonymization, audit logging, or data lifecycle management

  • Experience building developer-facing tooling or platforms that other teams adopt

  • Experience mentoring engineers and leading the technical direction of a team or project

  • Exposure to working with mobile or native apps
