Do you believe that creators should have the ability to get paid for the value they give to their fans?
We do, which is why we're building Patreon, a platform that powers membership services for creators with established followings. Patreon strives to provide creators with insight, education, and tools that make it possible to retain creative control while running their creative business, so creators can focus on creating and energizing their fanbases.

Our user base has doubled in the last year alone, and we have paid over $500 million directly to creators on our platform. In order to support this level of growth, Patreon is looking for a Content Policy Specialist.

• Ability to balance empathy with skepticism while investigating trends in content violations
• Interest in recording and analyzing data to find trends
• Able to handle high pressure working environment and lack of clarity
• Passion for and interest in Patreon and our mission

Bonus:

• Ability to help scale a trust and safety team at a fast-growing startup as we automate sophisticated tools for content violations.
• Encyclopedic knowledge of trust and safety responsibilities for a platform that processes payments and hosts user-generated content.
