About us

Aegis Compliance Tech is a data privacy and compliance firm that helps Indian and global organisations meet their DPDP obligations. We combine hands-on legal and regulatory expertise with technology, and we are building a product that automates privacy compliance end to end.

What you will build

The platform covers the core obligations of a Data Fiduciary under the DPDP Act:

• Consent management: itemised notices, multilingual consent capture, withdrawal, and a tamper-evident consent ledger

• Data principal rights: intake and tracking of access, correction, erasure and grievance requests against statutory timelines

• Data discovery and mapping: scanning of databases, SaaS tools and files to build a Record of Processing Activities (RoPA) and data inventory

• Breach management: incident logging, severity assessment and notification workflows for the Data Protection Board and affected individuals

• Children's data: age gating and verifiable parental consent flows

• Retention and erasure: purpose-based retention rules with automated deletion and proof of erasure

• Assessments and audit: DPIA templates, vendor and processor tracking, cross-border transfer records, and exportable audit evidence

• Dashboards and reporting: compliance posture scoring for DPOs and leadership

Key responsibilities

• Translate DPDP Act and Rules requirements, with input from legal and privacy experts, into product specifications and technical designs

• Design and build scalable backend services, APIs and a responsive web front end for the modules above

• Architect for security first: encryption, role-based access control, audit logging, data minimisation and tenant isolation

• Build connectors to common client systems such as CRMs, ERPs, cloud databases, and HR and marketing tools

• Integrate AI and automation features, for example data classification, policy drafting assistance and request triage, with human review where it matters

• Write clean, tested, documented code; own CI/CD, monitoring and release quality

• Support client onboarding, security questionnaires and technical due diligence

• Review the product against regulatory updates and clarifications, and adapt it quickly

Required qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

• 4 to 8 years building production SaaS or enterprise software

• Strong in at least one backend language (Python, Node.js/TypeScript, Java or Go) and in REST or GraphQL API design

• Solid front-end skills in React or a comparable framework

• Experience with relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and a major cloud (AWS, Azure or GCP)

• Working knowledge of application security: OWASP Top 10, secure authentication and authorisation, encryption at rest and in transit

• Ability to read a legal or regulatory requirement and turn it into clear user stories and system design

• Clear written communication, and comfort working with non-technical colleagues

Preferred qualifications

• Prior work on privacy, GRC, consent management, identity or data governance products

• Familiarity with GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2 or the DPDP Act and Rules

• Experience with data discovery or classification, including NLP or LLM-based approaches

• Experience with multilingual interfaces, including Indian languages

• Exposure to Kubernetes, Terraform and event-driven architectures

• Certifications such as CIPP, CIPT, DCPP or a cloud security credential

Indicative tech stack

Python or Node.js/TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker and Kubernetes, AWS or Azure, and LLM APIs for AI-assisted features.
