  • Providing expert guidance on privacy matters, supporting product development teams in implementing privacy by design, especially for AI-related projects.
  • Developing and delivering privacy training programs, including AI ethics, to enhance compliance and awareness.
  • Overseeing the maintenance of the Personal Data Registry, ensuring compliance with Article 30 of the GDPR.
  • Participating in the New Product Approval Committee to ensure new products, particularly those involving AI, comply with privacy regulations.
  • Conducting privacy compliance reviews and collaborating with the Compliance Testing team to strengthen privacy controls.
  • Serving as a potential DPO for specific entities or jurisdictions, offering tailored oversight and expertise.

Who You Are

  • Strong interpersonal skills with an ability to engage effectively with stakeholders across teams and regions.
  • Legal education or certification in privacy (e.g., CIPP/E, CIPM) and experience in AI ethics are highly desirable.
  • Experience or qualification as a DPO under GDPR is a strong advantage.

Awesome to Have
