Life as a Sprinter :
Nobody succeeds at Sprinto by staying in their lane.
We are organized around problems, not job titles. Sprinters take ownership beyond their role, solve hard problems, and care deeply about the impact they create. If something can be improved, fixed, or built, we don't wait for permission; we step in.
Being remote means we rely less on proximity and more on trust. We write things down, communicate openly, and move quickly because great teams aren't built by sitting together, they're built by pulling in the same direction.
We believe progress beats perfection, feedback is a gift, and doing the right thing matters, even when nobody is watching.
And while we move with urgency, we never move alone.
The mission of this role :
Trusted authority on global privacy regulation and AI governance — a DPO-like profile combining hands-on delivery (DPIA, ROPA, privacy program builds) with working fluency in reading and interpreting privacy law. Not a substitute for outside counsel, but able to translate regulatory text into program requirements without waiting on legal for every question.
Where you'll Leave Your Mark / Things You'll Build
What you'll do
Deliver
Lead delivery of DPIAs, ROPA build-outs, privacy program gap assessments, GDPR/DPDP/EU AI Act compliance programs, cross-border transfer assessments (SCCs, adequacy), and privacy notice/policy reviews.
Serve as Sprinto's internal authority on evolving privacy regulation: GDPR enforcement trends, India's DPDP Rules, EU AI Act phased obligations, US state privacy laws (CCPA/CPRA, VCDPA, etc.), and other regional frameworks (PDPL, PIPL) as customer demand requires.
Build reusable IP
Build and maintain DPIA templates, ROPA templates, legitimate interest assessment frameworks, and AI governance/impact assessment templates mapped to EU AI Act risk tiers.
Own commercial outcomes
Define packaging for privacy services (e.g., DPIA-as-a-service, ROPA sprint, privacy program build fixed-fee tiers).
Own pricing, margin, and utilization on your engagement book; forecast capacity for privacy demand.
Partner with Sales/SE/CS on privacy-attach opportunities.
AI-enabled productization
Build AI-assisted DPIA/ROPA generation playbooks with mandatory human validation gates — privacy work carries more interpretive and liability weight than technical control mapping, so review gates should be heavier, not lighter.
Quality & risk
Define explicit boundaries/disclaimers: this role provides regulatory/program guidance, not legal advice. Know when to tell a customer to get outside counsel, and don't blur that line under deal pressure.
Support customers navigating regulator inquiries or breach-notification timelines in an advisory capacity only.
The kind of builder we're looking For
Experience
5+ years in privacy consulting, DPO/privacy office roles, or in-house privacy program ownership.
Hands-on DPIA and ROPA delivery at scale — not just policy drafting.
Domain mastery
Deep: GDPR, India's DPDP Act.
Working knowledge: EU AI Act, US state privacy laws, and awareness of other regional frameworks (PDPL, PIPL).
Good to have
Legal background (JD/LLM, or paralegal/compliance-law experience) — enough to read and interpret regulatory text independently for routine questions. Not a requirement; treat as a differentiator, not a filter, given how narrow this combination is in the market.
AI-enabled workflow proficiency
Demonstrated use of AI tools to reduce manual effort and standardize deliverables.
Able to translate domain expertise into reusable templates and guided systems.
Operator strengths
Comfortable owning pricing/margin for a specialized, judgment-heavy service line.
Excellent written communication; confident handling ambiguous regulatory questions in live customer settings.
Preferred
IAPP certifications (CIPP/E, CIPM, CIPT, FIP), formal DPO certification.
Success metrics
Utilization % and gross margin on privacy engagements.
Regulatory-change responsiveness — time to update playbooks after new guidance/rules land.
QA pass rate, rework rate, CSAT.
Attach rate for privacy services; deal-unblock impact where privacy expertise was the gating factor.
You will enjoy Sprinto if
Stepping in before someone has to step up.
Wearing multiple hats without counting them.
Leaving egos at the door and winning as one team.
Taking the harder right over the easier wrong.
Shipping, learning, repeating.
Staying curious and never staying in your lane.
