About SimpliSafe
We're a high-tech home security company that's passionate about protecting the life you've built and our mission of keeping Every Home Secure. And we've created a culture here that cares just as deeply about the career you're building. Ours is a no ego culture of collaboration and innovation where those seeking their next challenge can find big opportunities and make a huge impact on the lives of all those who we protect. We don't just want you to work here. We want you to grow and thrive here.
We're embracing a hybrid work model that enables our teams to split their time between office and home. Hybrid for us means we expect our teams to come together in our state-of-the-art office on two core days, typically Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday – working together in person and choosing where they work for the remainder of the week. We all benefit from flexibility and get to use the best of both worlds to get our work done.
Why are we hiring?
Well, we're growing and thriving. So, we need smart, talented, and humble people who share our values to join us as we disrupt the home security space and relentlessly pursue our mission of keeping Every Home Secure.
The Role
SimpliSafe is looking for a passionate, experienced privacy and information security attorney to lead our global privacy function. This role will serve as a strategic partner to the Information Security, AI Governance, Go-To-Market, Product and Engineering teams. As the company's internal privacy leader, the Head of Privacy will advise cross-functionally on data privacy, data governance, and information security — and help shape the company's future growth. This role also entails an exciting opportunity to support SimpliSafe's investment in AI through internal adoption and implementation of corporate-wide governance.
What You'll Do
- Serve as the company's internal privacy expert, providing strategic and practical counsel to teams across legal, engineering, product, marketing, security, HR, and strategic partnerships.
- Lead and own the company's global data privacy compliance program end-to-end.
- Serve as the company's designated Data Privacy Officer (DPO), acting as the primary point of contact for regulators, supervisory authorities, and data subjects, and advising senior leadership on privacy risk.
- Act as the escalation point for negotiating, drafting, and reviewing contracts involving personal data — including vendor agreements, DPAs, data transfer agreements, and customer-facing terms.
- Build and maintain privacy policies, data inventories, records of processing activities, and supporting documentation and improve process automation, templates and playbooks.
- Guide the company's response to privacy inquiries and data subject rights requests in a timely and compliant manner.
- Conduct Privacy Impact Assessments (PIAs/DPIAs) and guide the company through information security assessments (PCI / CCPA) to identify and mitigate risks from current and planned data processing activities.
- Support regular audits and monitoring to ensure compliance with applicable privacy requirements globally.
- Develop and deliver privacy training and awareness programs across the organization.
- Maintain deep expertise in relevant global privacy law, including GDPR/UK GDPR, PECR/ePrivacy Directive, CCPA/CPRA and existing and emerging U.S. state laws, BIPA/CUBI, and privacy considerations in AI and IoT.
- Partner with the AI Governance team to assess and mitigate privacy risk in AI-enabled product features and internal AI use cases, including within the Legal team.
- Collaborate cross-functionally on incident response planning and execution and lead the legal analysis of regulatory and individual notification obligations arising from privacy and security incidents.
- Partner with IT to develop and maintain a comprehensive document retention policy.
What You'll Bring
- 7+ years of relevant legal experience, with at least 5 years focused on data privacy and protection; in-house experience strongly preferred.
- Active bar admission (U.S. state) with ability to register as in-house counsel.
- Deep working knowledge of U.S. federal and state privacy and AI laws, GDPR/UK GDPR, and related regulatory frameworks.
- A track record of navigating complex regulatory landscapes, establishing governance frameworks and managing cross functional projects to successful completion.
- A strong business acumen and ability to partner well cross functionally and within the legal team.
- An ability to assess business risk and advise senior leaders in a strategic and business savvy manner is a must.
- Strong contract negotiation skills and experience partnering directly with internal business clients.
- Experience counseling on products and businesses that depend on the collection, storage, and processing of personal data.
- Practical, commercial-minded approach to legal risk — you identify solutions, not only problems.
- CIPP certification(s) preferred.
- Experience with IoT, connected home products, or AI-related privacy matters is a plus.
- Background supporting high-growth technology companies, including those expanding internationally.

Senior Level Practice Head Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level practice head job?
Employers at this level look for candidates who have already led a practice, service line, or clinical unit with measurable results. What gives candidates an edge is demonstrated ownership: budget accountability, staff development, and the ability to set direction rather than follow it. Tailor your materials to show scope of leadership, not just tenure in a clinical or advisory role.
Which companies hire senior level practice heads?
Companies hiring senior level practice heads right now include TikTok, Texas A&M University, and Ahrefs, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from large health systems, national consulting firms, and established professional services organizations that have the operational scale to warrant dedicated practice leadership.
Are there remote senior level practice head jobs?
Yes, though the availability varies by industry and practice type. About 23% of senior level practice head openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with hybrid arrangements most common in consulting and advisory roles where client-facing responsibilities require periodic in-person presence.
What makes a practice head role senior level?
A senior level practice head role is defined by the scope of ownership rather than task execution. These positions carry responsibility for setting practice-wide strategy, managing multidisciplinary teams, owning P&L or operational budgets, and developing the next tier of practitioners. They differ from mid-level roles by requiring independent judgment on complex decisions with limited oversight.
Which industries hire the most senior level practice heads?
Senior Level practice head roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Education, and Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they operate at sufficient scale to warrant dedicated practice leadership and face ongoing demand for professionals who can align clinical or operational units with broader organizational goals.
