Senior Policy Manager - US
OpenMined
OpenMined is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation that brings together leading minds in AI, security, and privacy technology to develop open-source solutions that transform how data can be accessed and shared. Founded in 2017, we've grown into a global community of over 18,000 members working to ensure that privacy protection and AI innovation reinforce each other rather than undermine one another. We are driven by a simple challenge: the most valuable data for solving humanity's greatest challenges remains locked away due to numerous concerns. We believe technology can change that without compromise. Just as ARPANET allowed researchers at small universities to access computing power previously available only to a few elite institutions, we're building infrastructure that allows any organization to participate in AI development without surrendering their data. But where ARPANET connected computers, we're connecting data silos. Through a "structured transparency," framework we enable meaningful collaboration and attribution without requiring full disclosure. Imagine pharmaceutical companies collaborating on drug discovery without revealing proprietary compounds, hospitals jointly developing diagnostic AI without pooling patient records, or government agencies sharing insights on public health without compromising citizen privacy. This is the future we're building. We're seeking a Senior Policy Manager to lead our US policy initiatives. This role will be instrumental in advancing OpenMined's mission by engaging with US policymakers, contributing to regulatory frameworks, and ensuring our technical solutions align with evolving privacy regulations while supporting our global infrastructure deployment strategy.
