About the job

With the widespread impact of AI technologies, the growth and diversification of our products, and the proliferation of new and at times fragmented laws and reporting requirements, we face one of the most exciting and challenging moments as a company. The Risk, Compliance, and Integrity organization (RCI) brings together critical compliance, assurance, risk and governance functions across Google to help the company meet compliance needs and enable our businesses to innovate. Our goal is to make compliance an advantage for Google by driving scaled, data-driven, and policy-based compliance programs. We manage our operations through risk-based prioritization and governance and consistent and constructive regulator engagement.

As Director, you will be responsible for building and leading a team of policy experts to shape, craft, and codify Google's content and AI compliance policies. You will be responsible for the development and maintenance of content and AI policies and supporting documents, and work closely with other teams within Google (e.g., Regulatory Affairs and Legal teams) on legal interpretation. You and the team will engage broadly to build awareness of policies, and to solicit input in the development and refinement of policies. You will define key control sets for a given policy to ensure control coverage and consistency of controls across the business. You will advise on questions pertaining to compliance policies, design of controls associated with those policies, identification of gaps in policies and whether those gaps require changes in Enterprise-level policy, creation/updates to sub-Enterprise level policies, or risk acceptance. You and the team will advise and may develop training materials associated with specific policies.

Responsibilities

• Develop, shape, and maintain Google's compliance policies, leveraging legal interpretation, stakeholder input, and research.
• Collaborate with product areas and functions to design controls that are adequate to ensure compliance with policy requirements. Participate in risk reviews to approve exceptions to policy.
• Develop training programs and awareness initiatives for employees to enhance their understanding of compliance requirements, standards, and regulatory obligations.
• Review issues and incidents to assess risk and ensure remediation plans are adequate.
• Identify risk trends through external research and monitoring of regulatory priorities and consumer sentiment.
