We are looking for a whip-smart privacy and product attorney as Senior Counsel, Privacy and Product (title depending on experience) to join our growing legal team remotely. 

Reporting to the General Counsel in Pacific Time, you'll work hand-in-hand together on cutting edge privacy matters related to PubMatic’s platform, products and services.

• Build privacy compliance program outside of technical implementation of the IAB CCPA Framework/LSPA and IAB TCF 2.0
• Assist product teams with privacy reviews, open licensing matters, regulatory issues, and privacy/security by design
• Depending on seniority, serve as the company’s Chief Privacy Officer
• Support the continuous improvement of legal processes and corporate governance.

• J.D. from an accredited law school and member in good standing of a state bar (CA and NY preferred)
