We are seeking a Senior Data Privacy Engineer to design, implement and improve privacy-focused solutions across complex data environments. In this role, you will work closely with engineering, security, legal, compliance and product teams to embed privacy by design into systems, platforms and services. You will help translate regulatory and business requirements into practical technical controls that protect personal data while supporting innovation and operational efficiency.

Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining data discovery, classification, mapping, retention and deletion capabilities; supporting consent, data subject rights and preference-management processes; and implementing controls for data minimisation, access governance, pseudonymisation, anonymisation and encryption. You will assess privacy risks in new and existing products, contribute to privacy impact assessments, define technical remediation plans and monitor control effectiveness. You will also establish engineering standards, reusable patterns and documentation, while helping investigate and resolve privacy incidents and data-handling concerns. The role will involve reviewing architecture and code, improving automated testing and controls, and mentoring engineers on privacy-enhancing technologies and secure data practices.

Applicants should have substantial experience in data engineering, software engineering, security engineering or a related discipline, with a strong understanding of privacy principles and applicable data protection regulations. You should be comfortable working with cloud platforms, distributed systems, APIs, databases and data-processing pipelines, as well as scripting or programming in languages such as Python, Java or similar. Experience with data catalogues, governance platforms, identity and access management, encryption, tokenisation, differential privacy or other privacy-enhancing technologies is highly desirable. Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills are essential, along with the ability to explain technical risks clearly and deliver pragmatic solutions in a fast-changing environment.
