Senior Privacy Engineer at DuckDuckGo

This role is ideal for a senior-level engineer with a deep background in privacy-enhancing technologies like tracker blocking or differential privacy. You should be proficient in Go, Node.js, or Python and possess the architectural mindset to design systems that protect user data at scale. Since this is an ownership-heavy culture, they are looking for someone who can lead a project from the initial proposal through to the post-mortem without hand-holding. The standout feature of this position is the transparent, location-agnostic compensation of **$178,500 USD**, regardless of where you live among the 30+ supported countries. As a fully remote, "remote-first" company, they offer significant flexibility with no core hours, supplemented by perks like co-working allowances and paid parental leave. You'll also have the unique opportunity to work on high-impact tools like Tracker Radar and the DuckDuckGo browser. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have professional experience performing privacy reviews and audits for complex products. * Are comfortable wrangling vague problems and turning them into pragmatic, performant code. * Want to work in a "flat" professional level structure where pay is equal across the board. * Are excited about travel for twice-yearly team retreats to connect with colleagues in person.
