About the Role
Strength in Trust
OneTrust’s mission is to enable innovation through the responsible use of data and AI. We believe that ensuring data is trusted shouldn’t slow teams down—it should accelerate what’s possible. This led us to develop the first technology platform for responsible data use in 2016. Today, with AI representing the latest and most impactful expansion of data yet, OneTrust is once again redefining what responsible innovation looks like. OneTrust, the AI‑Ready Governance Platform™, unifies regulatory intelligence, automation, and connected governance workflows so businesses can continue to move at the speed of AI while ensuring good governance to prevent data misuse at scale. Trusted by thousands of organizations worldwide, OneTrust is shaping the future where trusted data becomes a transformative force for business and society.
The Challenge
We're looking for a Principal Architect to set technical direction across OneTrust's product platform as part of Architecture Services, our central architecture team. Principal Architects are among the most senior individual-contributor technologists in R&D. They shape multi-year architecture strategy, work across product domains on problems no single team can solve alone, and represent architecture in the most consequential technical decisions facing R&D.
Your Mission
Architecture Strategy & Technical Direction
- Lead the multi-year architecture strategy across OneTrust's product domains, working with domain architects to align their technical plans into one platform direction.
- Lead resolution of cross-domain architectural challenges and align stakeholders on platform-wide technical direction.
Cross-System Integrity & Feasibility
- Set direction for the platform's non-functional requirements, including security, privacy, reliability, performance, scalability, and cost.
- Take part early in product discovery and roadmap planning to assess feasibility and identify risks before designs are final.
Standards & Governance
- Propose R&D-wide architecture standards, reference architectures, and patterns to the Architecture Guild, which owns and adopts them. <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="5" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,&a
