The Privacy Program Manager is responsible for operationalizing and scaling the company's global privacy program across products, platforms, and business functions. Working closely with Legal, Security, Engineering, Product, Marketing, and other cross-functional partners, this role translates privacy and data protection requirements into scalable operational processes, governance, and technical controls that embed privacy by design across the organization.

- Develop and maintain privacy policies, standards, operational guidance, training, records, and self-service resources that enable teams to manage routine privacy obligations independently, with clear escalation paths where appropriate.
- Monitor changes in global privacy laws and regulations, translating legal requirements into practical operational processes, controls, and guidance.
- Define and report on privacy program metrics, identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency, and support initiatives related to incident response, data retention, cross-border data transfers, and broader privacy governance.

- Experience conducting operational privacy activities, including DPIAs, maintaining ROPAs, managing data subject rights requests, vendor privacy reviews, privacy due diligence, and privacy contract reviews.
- Experience implementing, administering, or optimizing a privacy management platform (such as OneTrust, TrustArc, or a comparable solution) to support privacy operations, workflow automation, and program governance.
- Bachelor's degree (or equivalent practical experience) and a Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP), Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM), Certified Information Privacy Technologist (CIPT), or equivalent privacy certification.
