(WFH) Software Engineer – Trust & Safety (Remote) Job ID- 1792

GitHub has a strong pedigree as a domain-specific social network aiming to connect communities through software collaboration. As with other social networks, GitHub is subject to users who aim to engage in bad behavior, resulting in complex user-facing issues with real-world implications. As a Trust & Safety Software Engineer, you will be at the forefront of protecting our community by building and maintaining infrastructure and tools to create a safe, inclusive, and productive environment for GitHub users.

 

 

Specifically, this includes engineering tooling for:

Abuse detection and remediation
Resolution of DMCA takedown requests
Screening for harmful content

As time progresses we expect to explore more innovative and exhaustive approaches to identify, anticipate, and fight abuse on our platform. 

 

About the Team

You will be working with a dedicated cross-functional team that includes Hubbers from GitHub’s Security & Legal organizations. This includes collaboration with the Platform Health team which combats abuse at scale, the Security Incident and Response team (SIRT) which responds to security incidents, and GitHub Legal which owns the Terms of Service and serves as stakeholders in defining and enforcing Trust & Safety standards for the platform.

 

What We Value

Collaboration: We believe the best work is done together.
Empathy: We believe in putting people first.
Quality: We believe in setting the standard for excellence.
Positive Impact: We believe in making the world a better place through our work.
Shipping: We believe in creating things for the people using them.
