About the role

We are seeking a Privacy & Compliance Specialist to build and run Superpower's privacy and compliance program and accelerate our mission. This role will own privacy and compliance end-to-end within our longevity and functional medicine model.

Responsibilities

  • Build and run Superpower's privacy program end-to-end — data mapping and inventory, privacy notices, consent flows, and data subject / patient rights requests (access, deletion, correction).
  • Establish how Superpower collects, stores, processes, and uses member health data across EMRs, health information exchanges, genetic reports, wearables, and the AI-powered digital twin.
  • Run privacy impact assessments and privacy-by-design reviews for new products, features, and services (e.g., prescription peptides).
  • Manage vendor privacy diligence, data processing agreements, and Business Associate Agreements, and maintain the record of processing and data flows.
  • Own compliance frameworks and audit readiness (e.g., HIPAA Security Rule, SOC 2) — policies, controls, evidence, and remediation.
  • Run security and privacy awareness training and maintain the company risk register.
  • Respond to customer and partner security questionnaires and support due diligence for partnerships and fundraising.
  • Own incident response and breach assessment / notification workflows, in coordination with Engineering and leadership.
  • Advise Product and Engineering on practical guardrails for AI-driven clinical recommendations and member data use.
  • Track evolving state and federal privacy regulations — HIPAA, state health privacy laws (e.g., Washington's My Health My Data Act), CCPA/CPRA, and FTC health data rules — and translate them into concrete internal requirements.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years in privacy and/or compliance, ideally in healthcare or another highly regulated, data-intensive industry, with hands-on experience running a privacy program.
  • Working fluency with HIPAA and modern privacy laws (state health privacy laws, CCPA/CPRA, FTC health data rules); familiarity with frameworks like SOC 2 a plus.
  • Ability to research and understand new regulatory requirements.
  • Independent operator that builds scalable frameworks rather than one-off fixes, flagging risks before they become blockers.
  • Strong judgment — able to distinguish real risk from theoretical risk, and to know when to escalate to counsel or leadership versus handle it directly.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to translate complex privacy and compliance concepts into clear, actionable guidance for non-specialists.
  • Comfort with ambiguity, cross-functional collaboration, and building 0-to-1 infrastructure in a fast-moving, tech-enabled startup.
  • Self-starter with a can-do attitude and an ownership mindset — you don't wait to be told what to do.
  • Strong personal interest in longevity and preventive healthcare.
  • Privacy certification (e.g., CIPP/US, CIPM, CIPP/E, or CHPC) valued but not required.
  • No JD or bar membership; this is not a counsel role.

Why Join Us

Be part of a mission-driven team redefining preventative, root-cause, and longevity-focused care. Own privacy and compliance end-to-end and be known as someone who makes things possible — clearing the path so the team can move faster, not slower. Build a modern privacy and compliance function from the ground up, with real ownership and impact beyond a traditional compliance role. Work directly across Operations, Product, Engineering, Growth, and Clinical on a flat, high-velocity team.
