About the job

You will think through the unique challenges of a broad array of policy areas (e.g., Hate, Misinformation, Adult) while developing processes and guidelines that are consistent and resilient. You will review graphic, controversial, and offensive video content in line with YouTube's Community Guidelines.
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.
