Job description

We are looking for our first Software Engineer, User Safety Tooling!

About the role

As an Engineer on our User Safety team, you'll design and build internal systems to protect our users, support data collection, and ensure compliance with global regulations. You'll join a small, fast-paced team where you'll have the freedom to be creative and develop innovative safety tools that make a real impact.

At amo, we're building social apps that bring friends together, and ensuring user safety is a critical part of our mission. You'll work directly with our User Safety lead to create the infrastructure that keeps our community safe.

What you'll do

• Design and build highly-scalable, efficient, and robust trust and safety platforms and tools, including data tracking pipelines.
• Develop systems to enhance data collection, compliance, and safety processes.
• Create APIs and integrations with third-party services.
• Create intelligent workflows including automating complex decision-making processes.
• Understand product objectives to develop user-friendly platforms that align with operational needs.
• Ensure safety services have zero downtime and can scale as our user base grows.

Who you are

Required Qualifications

• At least 5 years of experience in trust and safety tooling or content moderation systems.
• Proficiency in designing data structures, building algorithms, and at least one programming language (Go, Kotlin, C, or C++).
• Great communication and teamwork skills.
• Demonstrated passion for user safety, human moderation, AI moderation, and operational efficiency.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with web development and frontend technologies.
• Familiarity with regulatory requirements related to online safety (DSA, etc.).
• Experience working with machine learning models and data pipelines.

Life at amo

To ensure that everyone is set up for success within our way of working, we work together onsite 5 days a week.

We wanted to make sure coming to the office was as comfortable as possible for you:

• We chose a location in central Paris, near Opera (Metro lines 3,8,9 and RER A).
• We have a beautiful Parisian-style office with high ceilings, balconies, and huge windows. So a lot of natural light!

Because life outside of work should also be stress-free, we cover:

• Health care (100% coverage).
• Maternity Leave, Paternity Leave, Second Parent Leave (salary maintained at 100%).
• Vacation days: 8-9 weeks (total) per year - (European summer? 🥹😎).
• • 5 weeks of paid time off (by the state);
  • 1-2 additional weeks (RTT, based on our company contract);
  • ~11 bank holidays.
  • We shut down entirely twice a year, two weeks in summer and one week in winter to allow everyone to truly recharge and to avoid prolonged slowdowns (especially in the summer). These pauses are part of your total vacation time, giving everyone a real chance to unplug and recharge. No Slack, no email, no FOMO.

Relocation

We love the diverse perspectives we get from having people from all over the world join us (68% of our team is international), and so we of course support relocation to Paris with:

• Help and sponsored visa process.
• 1 month of Airbnb 100% covered by amo upon arrival.
• Assistance from a trusted relocation agency to find your permanent home.
• Help with french paperwork like opening a french social security account, tax forms, getting your carte vitale (free healthcare) and more.
• French lessons to be fully set with your new Parisian life.
