Member of Security Staff, Privacy & Trust Ops Lead

What you will do

Privacy operations and the commercial data path. The privacy program end-to-end: records of processing, data subject rights, retention, breach notification, and the privacy notices that face millions of users. This also covers the compliance work behind how Arena's data products are packaged and shared externally.

Compliance, risk, and third-party management. The control framework portfolio (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, NIST AI RMF), our continuous compliance monitoring program, and a risk register with accountable business owners. You'll also own third-party risk management end-to-end, and privacy for the API and gateway, including the sub-processor register behind our enterprise customer terms.

Model-provider compliance. Arena's relationships with frontier labs are each their own compliance surface: data processing terms, acceptable-use obligations, provider provenance and screening, and trust operations when something escalates in either direction. This barely exists as a named job anywhere else.

About Arena Intelligence, Inc.

Arena is the platform for evaluating how AI models perform in the real world. Founded by researchers from UC Berkeley's SkyLab, we're on a mission to measure and advance the frontier of AI for real-world use, and to build the foundation for everyone to understand, shape, and benefit from it.

Tens of millions of people use Arena each month to evaluate how frontier systems handle the work they actually do. The preferences they share power the most transparent, rigorous, and human-centered evaluations in AI. Leading AI labs, enterprises, and independent researchers rely on our work and open datasets to understand how models behave in real workflows: agentic coding, creative generation, professional productivity, and beyond. We go beyond leaderboards and decompose what human experience reveals about AI, so models advance toward the work people actually do.

We're a team of researchers, academics, builders, and creatives from UC Berkeley, Google, Stanford, and DeepMind. We seek truth, move fast, and value craftsmanship, curiosity, and impact over hierarchy. We're building a company where thoughtful, curious people from all backgrounds can do their best work together, in an office culture that radiates excellence, energy, and focus.

We're hiring the first dedicated owner of privacy, compliance, and trust operations at Arena. This is a build-from-here role. You'll be hands-on from day one, maturing core parts of the program as you go, and you'll decide what to prioritize first.

You'll partner closely with Engineering, driving privacy and trust engineering initiatives, like de-identification, pseudonymous identifiers, and data lifecycle controls, from requirements through to what actually ships in the product.

You'll also work closely with our Legal Team, who own the legal determinations. You own the operations underneath them: the programs that make those decisions real, evidenced, and repeatable.

This role is onsite in our San Francisco office. It works directly with our leadership team, and being in the room is part of the job.
