Key skills for this role
Local Now is a free, ad-supported streaming service delivering local news, weather, sports, and lifestyle programming to viewers across virtually every connected device. As part of Allen Media Group, we operate at meaningful scale across mobile, smart TVs, streaming sticks, set-top boxes, and the web. We are now investing in a ground-up rebuild of our streaming platform with a privacy-first architecture, modern shared-code strategy, and the engineering rigor needed to grow sustainably.
We build for audiences who expect frictionless playback on any device, and for advertisers who depend on us to deliver reliable, high-quality monetization. The work is tangible: every improvement we make is felt by millions of viewers.
We are hiring a Privacy Engineer to help build and coordinate the technical privacy posture of our streaming platform. This is fundamentally a full-stack software engineering role — one where a strong builder becomes the go-to owner of the privacy patterns, plumbing, and coordination work that make our platform trustworthy across every surface.
You do not need to have spent your entire career in privacy engineering to succeed here. What we need is a capable full-stack engineer who has worked meaningfully across backend and frontend systems, cares about doing right by users, and is energized by coordinating consent, data-handling, and compliance-adjacent work across a wide array of systems. Deeper privacy specialists are very welcome to apply — but the baseline is a solid full-stack engineer with a data-and-privacy lean.

4+ years of full-stack software engineering experience shipping production code across backend and frontend systems.
Strong backend fundamentals — services, APIs, data pipelines, and storage — combined with practical frontend experience on CTV, web, or mobile.
Meaningful exposure to data privacy, security, or compliance-adjacent engineering work. This does not have to be your whole career, but it should be a real thread in it.
Ability to reason clearly about data flow across a distributed system: where PII enters, where it lives, where it moves, and where it leaves.
Working awareness of privacy regulations (CCPA/CPRA and GDPR at minimum) and an appetite to go deeper as the role grows.
Comfortable coordinating across engineering teams and with non-engineering partners (Legal, Compliance, Product).
A pragmatic disposition — you can advocate for the right privacy outcome while helping the business ship.
Prior hands-on work with consent management platforms, DSAR workflows, or data-mapping / classification tooling.
Experience with privacy engineering platforms such as Fides, Ethyca, OneTrust.
Background in streaming, media, ad-tech, or another consumer-scale business where user data and monetization intersect.
Familiarity with connected TV and mobile SDK privacy behaviors — advertising ID handling, IDFA/AAID/RIDA, and platform-specific consent surfaces.
Privacy certifications such as IAPP CIPP/US, CIPP/E, or CIPT.
Comfort using AI-assisted development tooling to accelerate policy-to-code translation and data-inventory work.
