We are excited to welcome a Privacy Engineer to join 1Password’s Privacy Engineering team within GRC, part of the broader Security organization. Our mission is to build products people trust—and privacy is a core part of that trust. In this role, you’ll use full stack engineering skills to deliver privacy-by-design controls and tooling that help 1Password build and operate privacy-preserving practices across our product and platform in a modern SaaS environment.
Job Responsibility:
Build privacy-by-design into product features and services
Partner with Product and Legal/Privacy to translate requirements (e.g., DPIAs/PIAs, consent, data subject rights) into concrete Privacy Engineering deliverables and implementation plans
Implement privacy-safe patterns for data flows, access boundaries, storage decisions, and user experiences, driving changes into production systems
Contribute to technical designs and reviews so privacy is addressed early, with GRC & Security Privacy Engineering providing consistent guidance and reusable patterns
Implement privacy controls across the stack
Build and improve backend controls such as authorization checks, data scoping, encryption usage, and privacy-aware service interfaces in collaboration with Security engineering partners
Build and improve frontend experiences that support privacy requirements (clear choices, consent signaling, privacy-respecting defaults, and user controls where applicable)
Improve data handling in logs/telemetry by limiting sensitive fields, and ensuring collection remains consent-aware, supporting goals for visibility without over-collection
Improve lifecycle controls and operational hygiene
Strengthen retention and deletion across production databases, logs, and relevant third-party systems with an engineering-first approach
Build and maintain tooling and automation (service templates, CI checks, linting/guardrails) that prevent regressions and make safe choices easy across engineering teams
Grow through hands-on execution and collaboration
Contribute production-quality code, tests, and documentation for privacy-related features and controls as a core member of the privacy engineering function
Participate in code reviews and design reviews, and work with teammates to iterate toward pragmatic solutions
Learn and apply privacy and regulatory concepts in an engineering context, supported by close partnership with privacy-minded stakeholders
Requirements:
3–5 years of experience building and shipping software in a SaaS environment
Full stack engineering experience delivering customer-facing functionality and supporting backend services (APIs, services, and data flows)
Proficiency in one or more backend languages (e.g., Go, Rust, Java, TypeScript) and comfort working across the stack
Experience with modern web application patterns (authentication/authorization concepts, API design, frontend state/data handling)
Practical experience implementing privacy- and security-adjacent controls such as data minimization, access controls, encryption usage, retention/deletion, and privacy-safe telemetry/logging
Ability to translate privacy requirements (GDPR / CCPA / CPRA concepts) into engineering tasks
Strong collaboration skills and comfort partnering with GRC & Security, Product, Legal/Privacy, Data, and Engineering teams
A track record of writing reliable, maintainable code with testing and operational awareness (debugging, monitoring, incident follow-up)
Nice to have:
Experience building or supporting data subject rights workflows (export, delete, correction) and related automation
Familiarity with threat modeling, secure development practices, and privacy/security reviews
Experience with third-party integrations and building safe data handling patterns for vendors and support tooling
Exposure to compliance/security frameworks and audits (e.g., ISO 27001, ISO 27701, SOC 2) in ways that translate into real engineering controls
Interest in privacy-safe AI-assisted features (data minimization, provenance, logging/telemetry hygiene, retention alignment)
