As Reddit’s advertising ecosystem rapidly expands, protecting our platform, advertisers, and users from bad actors is paramount.

Serve as the primary Safety SME interfacing with Ads Product, Ads Engineering, and Policy teams to align on shared risks.

• Playbook & Methodology Development: Design, document, and standardize operational playbooks, escalation frameworks, QA standards, and feedback loops for all investigative and enforcement pathways.

Qualifications & Experience:

• 7+ years of experience in threat intelligence, ad tech safety, trust & safety investigations, or platform integrity (focused on ad fraud, financial crime, ATO, or spam abuse).

• Demonstrated 0-to-1 track record of operating in ambiguous environments to build threat response frameworks.

• Strong proficiency in SQL, Python or R, and big data environments to independently query petabyte-scale datasets and construct adversarial network graphs.

• Experience using AI/LLMs as investigative copilots and partnering with ML teams to deploy LLM-based detection classifiers.

• Deep functional expertise in digital ad ecosystems, ad serving infrastructure, and ad-specific fraud archetypes.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Familiarity with global ad compliance, privacy regulations, and regulatory reporting standards.

Benefits:
