The T&S Network estimates this role to be P3, Senior. The typical base salary for that level in Safety Engineering & Data Science is $190k to $260k in New York. Key skills at this level: owns a detection system end to end, including its drift and its retraining, designs for adversarial pressure rather than for a static distribution, and sets evaluation methodology others in the company adopt.
Why this level
Estimated from the posting rather than stated by the employer: asks for 11+ years · posts $165k to $210k base in New York · the title reads as P2.
The role, in T&S terms
Written by the T&S Network from Partiful's posting.
Engineering work on trust and safety for a consumer social event-planning app, detecting, investigating and mitigating phishing, spam, objectionable content, scraping and other fraud and abuse. The role sits on the engineering side of T&S and splits time between that work and product infrastructure, reliability and developer velocity.
What you'd do
- Build AI-driven systems that make real-time enforcement calls and apply policy at scale
- Create monitoring tools that surface abuse trends and help the team react to new attack methods quickly
- Monitor how protective systems affect trusted users and tune interventions to limit friction
- Translate ambiguous judgment-heavy policy calls into rules that can be enforced at scale, working with Operations
- Build enforcement tooling, escalation paths and appeal workflows for Support to use
- Participate in an on-call rotation for T&S incidents and build fixes to prevent repeats
- Design and maintain serverless, secure GCP infrastructure and backend APIs and databases
What it asks for
- 3 to 11 years of engineering experience in infrastructure, full-stack or applied machine learning, ideally at a fast-moving company
- 2+ years of trust and safety experience
- Experience building enforcement systems end to end, including detection, action pipelines, escalation and appeals
- Working knowledge of how bad actors exploit consumer social platforms
- Experience with legal, regulatory and compliance requirements for trust systems
- Hands-on experience running serverless or event-driven systems at large scale
- Comfort with TypeScript and Node.js
Worth knowing
- On-call rotation for T&S incidents
