Twitter is what’s happening and what people are talking about right now. For us, life's not about a job, it's about purpose. We believe real change starts with conversation. Here, your voice matters. Come as you are and together we'll do what's right (not what's easy) to serve the public conversation.

The Platform Product organization is a critical team which provides direction and a product lens on all the work the platform organization does at Twitter, from data to analytics, storage to graph technologies, to networking and data centers. With every product we ship to our internal customers, we provide an enabling environment for the consumer and revenue team to build exciting experiences for our customers.

Areas of responsibility include:

• Developing a vision for the privacy platform that supports the mission of Twitter of serving the public conversation

• Advising on new feature development, product roadmaps, research, and other key critical initiatives

• Providing a particular focus on delivering new capabilities to our product managers and engineers

• Proactively identifying potential gaps/risk areas and opportunities for driving cross-functional collaboration in these areas, such as developing product offerings that help us comply with an increasingly active regulatory landscape

• Creating aspirational goals and partnering closely with consumer and revenue product and engineering to identify and complete a roadmap that unlock capabilities for our partner organizations

• By working together, we create the most capable and cost-efficient platform in an innovative, experiment-rich, and fast-paced environment.

Your role is to understand our customers, all engineers and data scientists at Twitter, capture insights, see opportunities, and help prioritize work for developing and managing the portfolio of products and policies that further our Privacy by Design philosophy. You will help ensure all our solutions are performed in a compliant way while staying abreast of all applicable data protection and privacy laws, including EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), burgeoning US regulatory policies such as CCPA, or industry-led policies. You will partner cross-functionally to put an appropriate compliance framework in place to ensure we’re developing and deploying products, infrastructure and policies that adhere to our leading privacy-first practices.
