  • Experience with differential privacy or private federated learning
  • Programming experience
  • Strong collaboration, communication, interpersonal, and organizational skills
  • Ability to learn and research new technologies rapidly
  • Ability to analyze systems' architectures for privacy impact
  • Ability to solve complex problems independently

Responsibilities

  • Review features to identify privacy exposures and partner with teams to design mitigations.
  • Audit new products to identify bugs in development and review customer data collected by engineering teams to drive decisions for privacy impact.
  • Communicate privacy risks and potential mitigations to senior leadership to drive decisions.
  • Review data collection requests and systems that enable product improvement while preserving privacy.
  • Partner with technical experts in web browsing and digital payments to build privacy-preserving features and technologies.
