Opt out software that removes your private info from the internet
We are seeking an entrepreneurial Senior Product Manager with a track record of success building and managing products in the Privacy Tech, Legal Tech, Reg Tech and/or Consumer Data space, with an emphasis on the management of consumer data and/or consumer data privacy rights.
Optery processes Data Subject Access Requests (a.k.a. DSARs) for its customers pertaining to managing their data privacy rights at data brokers. Put differently, Optery delivers, manages and fulfills opt out and data deletion requests for its customers at data brokers.
Optery customers sign a Limited Power of Attorney appointing Optery as their Authorized Agent for such requests, and Optery delivers customized requests to data brokers based on which U.S. state and/or privacy law jurisdiction the customer resides in, e.g. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), etc. Optery also offers a free tier with self-service tools for users to submit and manage their own data privacy rights requests.
Optery is seeking a Senior Product Manager to own, manage and advance all Consumer Data Privacy Rights Management functionality and roadmap for the Optery platform.
A strong candidate will have significant experience in consumer data management product development, and significant experience with consumer data privacy rights such as those offered in the CCPA, CPRA, GDPR, VCDPA, and CPA regulations.
We will geek out together launching new products, features and functionality that eradicates consumer data from data broker platforms using new and clever approaches. Many of the most successful data privacy professionals and entrepreneurs formerly worked in the consumer data and/or data broker industries. For example, two of Optery’s founders worked in the data broker industry in the past, but as they learned more about what the data actually gets used for, and the harms it can cause, they decided to leave. They had a lot of inside knowledge about how the industry worked and decided to use that knowledge to help people learn more about the problem and address it head on with the development of Optery’s opt out software.
You will work closely with Optery’s founders and engineers. A strong candidate will be equally comfortable diving into the weeds and executing initiatives themselves, as well as hiring and managing an extended team of team members, contractors, and specialists to ensure a world-class product experience. This is a hands-on Senior Product Management role that requires a strong background both strategically and tactically. It will require debugging and QA by you and your direct report(s). It will also require Product Marketing work outputs.
You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including sales, marketing, engineering, design, legal, customer success, customer support and executive leadership, to align product development with company objectives and drive measurable results.
While Optery is a fully-remote global team, this is a U.S.-based position and you will be required to work regular U.S. business hours, i.e. in the U.S. Eastern, Central, Mountain, and/or Pacific time zones.
Optery values diversity and is an equal opportunity employer. Optery does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy and gender identity), national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, genetic information, age, membership in an employee organization, retaliation, parental status, military service, or other non-merit factor.
