**About the job**:

You are collaborative - ready to partner in initiatives that influence all aspects of the business and work with Googlers from all over the company. As an integrated part of the team, you proactively assess legal risks and advise on products that will not only move information into the 21st century, but move information law forward as well.

20th century laws don't always solve 21st century problems, and Google Legal crafts innovative approaches for working with some of the toughest legal challenges of the information age. Whether you're a patent attorney, an intellectual property expert or an engineer headed to law school, Google Legal lets you address unanswered legal quandaries and create new precedents. Our innovative services raise challenging questions that demand creative and practical answers. We provide those answers by working at the crossroads of the law and new technology, helping Google build innovative and important products for users around the world.

**Responsibilities**:

- Advise on compliance across all aspects of global privacy law and regulation, including data protection, data retention, data security, and data breach rules.
- Provide specialist consultation and support to other key functions (e.g., Privacy Engineering, Public Policy, Corporate Communications).
- Assist in the continued development and improvement of all aspects of Google’s privacy compliance program (e.g., incident response, data transfers, processing, privacy policies, staff training, etc.).
