At Vercel, our mission is to enable the world to ship the best products and that goes hand in hand with creating an environment where you can do your best work.

About the role:

If you like greenfields and challenges—in a supportive department—Vercel is the place for you.

Getting started:

  • We want you to feel like part of the team early on! Our team will help integrate you into the company with explanations on our product, policies, processes, team structure and roadmap.

  • Run Trust & Safety’s policy escalations program to solve edge cases and create answers to new questions (from the Abuse Operations team and in general).

  • Pair with the T&S team and the Abuse Operations team to implement policy in Abuse Operations workflows to industry-best levels; training and workflow evaluation.

  • Build out Vercel’s external acceptable use policy and user-facing documentation.

  • As needed, be able to represent Vercel in external Trust & Safety communications

About you:

  • 2+ years of experience in policy or user policy management (researching, writing, and implementing change) at a webhosting-based business

  • 2+ years in incident management and policy escalations

  • Experience with user restriction systems and setting, tracking, and using KPIs to understand and optimize policy/operations outcomes

  • Experience working with an Abuse Operations team

  • Understands current and upcoming regulatory systems that apply to Trust & Safety work

Bonus if you have:

Experience in risk mitigation, conflict resolution, or product policy; understanding of geo-politics related to trust & safety issues; familiarity with SQL and creating SQL queries; experience with production ML systems, ticketing systems, and ticket labelling; experience with elections/misinformation.

Benefits:
