About the job
Fast-paced, dynamic, and proactive, YouTube’s Trust & Safety team is dedicated to making YouTube a safe place for users, viewers, and content creators around the world to create, and express themselves. Whether understanding and solving their online content concerns, navigating within global legal frameworks, or writing and enforcing worldwide policy, the Trust & Safety team is on the frontlines of enhancing the YouTube experience, building internet safety, and protecting free speech in our ever-evolving digital world.
In this role, you will work with teams from Engineering to Legal, Public Policy and Sales to set policies and combat fraud and abuse often with an eye to finding industry-wide solutions. Trust and Safety team members are problem solvers first, motivated to find innovative solutions and use technical know-how, user insights and proactive communication to pursue the highest possible quality and safety standards for users across Google products.
The Service Tools and Circumvention (STAC) team, within Ads and Shopping, is responsible for understanding vulnerabilities in the Ads funnel, guiding partners on appropriate enforcement levers for abuse scenarios, and developing additional enforcement mechanisms to combat circumvention of systems, such as repeat violations across one or more accounts. Your work will directly contribute to preventing high-risk policy-violating impressions and escalations, while also safeguarding the customer experience. You will review graphic, controversial, and sometimes offensive content during the course of the role in line with Google's policies. You should have the ability to review or be exposed to sensitive or violative content as part of the core role.

Develop frameworks to catch fraudsters, enforce our product policies, learn spam patterns/ trends and identify product vulnerabilities.
