As the Product Manager, you will lead the safety strategy for YouTube's next generation of interactive features. You will be responsible for defining and building the protections that allow our community to connect and engage with confidence. This involves cross-functional collaboration with product, engineering, policy, and operations teams to embed safety-by-design principles from the ground up. Your work will focus on developing AI-powered systems to detect and prevent issues, setting a new standard for user protection in dynamic digital spaces.
At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.
