About the role: What's in the Box
The Data Privacy team sits within the Order & Subscription Experience Tribe , part of the Consumer Alliance . The team is responsible for the systems and guardrails that let HelloFresh handle customer data responsibly at scale. Consent management, Data subject rights, Data retention and minimization, PII discovery and classification, and privacy-by-design tooling embedded into the Hellofresh flows that touch millions of customers globally.
As Engineering Manager, you'll lead a squad of product/backend engineers building and operating these systems, partner closely with a Product Manager & Stakeholders to translate regulatory and business requirements (GDPR, CCPA, and other regional privacy regulations) into a working roadmap, and stay technically engaged, reviewing architecture and code, joining incident & debugging sessions, without being the primary hands-on contributor.
What you’ll do: The Recipe
- Manage and grow a squad of data privacy, including hiring, performance management, and career development.
- Own the quarterly roadmap for data privacy in partnership with your Product Manager, balancing regulatory deadlines, risk reduction, and platform reliability.
- Drive execution on core privacy capabilities: consent and preference management, automated data subject request (DSAR) handling, data retention/deletion pipelines, and PII discovery/classification across Hellofresh domains & systems.
- Own operational health of privacy systems. SLAs, data deletion guarantees, audit trail completeness and run postmortems when things go wrong
