Principal Solution Engineer (RFX Lead)

Strength in Trust OneTrust’s mission is to enable innovation through the responsible use of data and AI. We believe that ensuring data is trusted shouldn’t slow teams down—it should accelerate what’s possible. This led us to develop the first technology platform for responsible data use in 2016. Today, with AI representing the latest and most impactful expansion of data yet, OneTrust is once again redefining what responsible innovation looks like. OneTrust, the AI‑Ready Governance Platform™, unifies regulatory intelligence, automation, and connected governance workflows so businesses can continue to move at the speed of AI while ensuring good governance to prevent data misuse at scale. Trusted by thousands of organizations worldwide, OneTrust is shaping the future where trusted data becomes a transformative force for business and society. The Challenge We are looking for a Principal Solutions Engineer to lead the RFX practice within OneTrust’s Solutions Engineering Centre of Excellence.

You will partner closely with Account Executives, Solution Engineers, Product, Product Marketing, Infosec, and other subject-matter experts to turn complex customer requirements into differentiated, high-quality responses that help us win. This role is not about personally running every questionnaire that comes in. It is about owning the strategy for the most important opportunities while building the systems, content, operating rhythms, and AI-enabled workflows that help the wider field execute better at scale. At the same time, you will help raise the level of the broader Solutions Engineering organization by creating a stronger RFX function: one that is more strategic in deals, more efficient in execution, more consistent in quality, and more useful as a source of market, customer, and competitive insight. Ultimately, the mission is to lead and focus RFX efforts in ways that positively affect win rate, efficiency, response quality, and business impact. This is a builder-operator role for someone who can combine deal strategy, technical understanding, strong writing, operational rigor, and cross-functional influence to create a smarter and more scalable RFX motion.
