Title : Data Privacy, Cybersecurity & AI Compliance Manager

Reporting to : Sr. Enterprise Compliance Director

About Hippo

Hippo was built on a promise: make homeownership effortless. Nearly a decade later, that mission still drives us. We use technology and data to help our customers stay ahead of problems and protect what matters most.

Today, that same tech-native approach powers our work beyond homeowners. Hippo operates as a diversified carrier platform, partnering with MGAs to deliver tailored program solutions that help them grow and deliver better customer experiences. Behind that work is a team that values ownership, curiosity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

If you're energized by building what's next, we'd love to meet you.

About You

You are a compliance professional who lives at the intersection of data privacy, cybersecurity, and AI governance. You're not necessarily an attorney, but you know how to translate complex regulatory requirements into practical, operational compliance programs, and you know when an issue needs to go to Legal for interpretation or sign-off. You've built or matured compliance programs against frameworks like the CCPA/CPRA and other state privacy laws, the TCPA and related marketing rules, the NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation (23 NYCRR 500), the NAIC Insurance Data Security Model Law, and emerging AI regulations (e.g., Colorado AI Act, EU AI Act, NAIC AI model bulletins). You're as comfortable running day-to-day privacy operations, working a live security incident alongside InfoSec, or writing a quarterly report for a board committee as you are designing the program those activities live in. Insurance industry experience is a strong plus, since you understand the regulatory overlay carriers and producers face beyond standard corporate compliance. You're detail-oriented, comfortable managing multiple regulatory threads at once, and skilled at partnering across Legal, Security, Engineering, Marketing, and the business to keep Hippo ahead of a fast-moving regulatory landscape.

What You'll Do

• Privacy Program Build & Ownership: Design, build, and run Hippo's enterprise data privacy compliance program, maturing it from today's operational footing into a documented, auditable program: governance and accountability structure, data inventory and records of processing, privacy impact assessment process, policy framework, program metrics, and a regulatory change management process covering CCPA/CPRA, other state privacy laws, and insurance-specific privacy requirements (e.g., GLBA and state insurance privacy laws)
• Privacy Operations & Consumer Rights: Own Hippo's privacy mailbox and consumer rights request process end to end: intake, verification, tracking, and timely response to access, deletion, correction, and opt-out requests, with documentation sufficient to withstand regulatory scrutiny
• Marketing & Advertising Compliance:
