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 Staff Software Engineer to help lead technical direction across a major feature area or set of related systems at OneTrust. Staff Engineers determine their own approach on complex, often ambiguous assignments, and their technical judgment is trusted well beyond their immediate team. 

 

Your Mission 

Technical Leadership & Architecture 

  • Lead design and architecture for major features or components, ensuring alignment with the broader system architecture. 

  • Determine approach and methods independently on complex, ambiguous assignments without an established playbook. 

Cross-Team Collaboration 

  • Partner with other engineering teams, Product, and UX to shape solutions before implementation begins. 

  • Build working relationships and technical credibility beyond your immediate team. 

Quality & Standards 

  • Establish and champion engineering best practices adopted by your team and beyond. 

Mentorship 

  • Mentor Senior and mid-level engineers, helping them grow their technical judgment and scope of ownership. 

You Are 

Someone who determines methods and approach independently on new, complex assignments, and who is sought out by other engineers for technical guidance beyond your own team. You think in terms of systems and tradeoffs, not just individual tickets. 

 

Your Experience Includes 

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field 

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience 

  • Demonstrated track record leading technical initiatives that span multiple engineers or systems 

  • Deep expertise in frontend and/or backend technologies relevant to OneTrust's platform, including cloud architecture experience 

  • Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Devin, Windsurf, or similar) in a professional setting, with genuine enthusiasm for applying AI to accelerate and elevate day-to-day engineering work.
