Technical Partner Manager

Ethyca is a high-growth Series A remote startup on a mission to make Trust, Respect, and Privacy a default feature of every tech stack. To accomplish this, we created the Fides open source language for data privacy and its related suite of free developer tools to enforce privacy policies as code, automate users’ right to access and erase their data, and much more. We believe software engineers are uniquely equipped to solve modern privacy challenges, but only if we work together on shared standards and best practice tools - come join our team and help make this a reality!
