fireworks - Privacy Program Engineer
Requirements
• 4–7 years of experience in privacy, GRC, IT audit, information security, or a closely related field, with meaningful hands-on privacy work. • Working knowledge of GDPR and CCPA/CPRA, and familiarity with ISO 27701, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, SOC 2, and NIST. • Hands-on experience with technical privacy operations: data subject requests, ROPA or data inventory maintenance, privacy impact assessments, or retention enforcement. • Working proficiency in SQL and at least one scripting language - enough to query a warehouse, call an API, parse a schema, and automate a recurring task without help. • Hands-on familiarity with cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure): IAM and access scoping, logging, data stores and their retention behavior, and how to find where data actually lives and how it’s used. • Strong written communication; you can translate privacy requirements into language engineers, customers, and non-technical employees understand. • Built something with an LLM API or agent framework that other people relied on. • Experience with de-identification or synthetic data techniques. • Exposure to data lineage or catalog tooling (dbt, DataHub, Atlan, Monte Carlo, OpenMetadata). • Worked on a privacy or security problem at an AI/ML company specifically - model data flows, inference logging, training data provenance. • Startup or fast-growing SaaS background.
Responsibilities
• Build the privacy automation layer: scripts, scheduled jobs, API integrations, and LLM-based agents that handle request routing, evidence collection, assessment intake, and control monitoring. • Own the data subject rights (DSR) program and the system behind it: build the intake, identity verification, fan-out across data stores, and fulfillment tracking as an automated pipeline rather than a checklist, with the audit trail generated as a byproduct. • Build and maintain a data inventory and ROPA that derives from the environment rather than from interviews: pull from cloud APIs, warehouse metadata, IaC, and service catalogs so the map updates when the systems do, and reconcile drift. • Embed privacy into how we build: review designs and PRs for data handling, advise on de-identification, pseudonymization, tokenization, field-level encryption, and access scoping, and give engineers a concrete pattern to use rather than a policy to read. • Own retention and deletion as an engineering problem: translate retention requirements into concrete rules per data store, work with engineering on enforcement in pipelines and backups, and build the verification that proves deletion actually happened. • Support consent management and preference handling across our web properties and product surfaces. • Solve AI data problems directly: trace how customer data moves through training, fine-tuning, inference, and logging; validate zero-retention and isolation claims against what the platform actually does; and build the checks that keep those claims true as the platform changes. • Take on additional privacy projects as the program evolves; we're a growing team with dynamic priorities.
