About the Role

Microsoft AI is building consumer health experiences, including Copilot Health, to provide AI-powered guidance. This senior individual-contributor role focuses on privacy, compliance, and regulatory matters, requiring an engineer to set technical direction, build privacy-preserving systems, and navigate evolving regulations in health technology and applied AI.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the primary point of contact for privacy, compliance, and regulatory matters within the engineering team.
  • Ensure products are designed and built in a privacy-preserving way, embedding data minimization, purpose limitation, and privacy-by-design.
  • Translate complex health and data-protection regulations into concrete technical requirements, engineering guardrails, and automated controls.
  • Lead privacy and security design reviews and threat modeling for new features and models.
  • Design and build foundational privacy infrastructure, including data classification, access controls, consent management, audit logging, data lineage, and retention controls.
  • Evaluate and apply privacy-enhancing technologies to reduce user risk.
  • Build reusable libraries, patterns, and tooling to enable engineers to ship privacy-preserving features by default.
  • Raise the team’s privacy and compliance fluency through mentorship and clear standards.
  • Partner across legal, compliance, security, and product to balance user protections with product velocity.
  • Support audits, certifications, and regulator-facing evidence.
  • Stay ahead of emerging health-privacy regulation and industry practice.

Requirements

  • Extensive professional software engineering experience building and operating production systems at scale, with significant depth in privacy, security, or data protection.

  • Demonstrated ability to translate privacy and regulatory requirements (such as GDPR or HIPAA) into technical designs and enforceable controls.
  • Hands-on command of privacy and security fundamentals: privacy-by-design, data minimization, access-control models (RBAC/ABAC), encryption, audit logging, and data lifecycle management.
  • Experience conducting privacy and security reviews, threat modeling, and risk assessments.
  • Excellent cross-functional communication skills to influence stakeholders and explain trade-offs clearly.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
