Role Overview
As a Staff Product Manager for Moderation, you will define the future of moderation on Reddit, leading zero-to-one product work at the intersection of user-facing experience, community governance, and cutting-edge LLM systems. You will help Reddit move beyond legacy moderation approaches toward proactive, intelligent, and scalable community enforcement.
Responsibilities
- Identify Reddit's highest-impact opportunities to evolve community enforcement and moderator workflows, turning them into a clear product strategy and roadmap.
- Lead zero-to-one development of LLM-powered moderation experiences critical to scaling healthy communities globally.
- Build deep understanding of moderators, community members, and healthy community dynamics, translating insights into high-quality product experiences.
- Define success metrics and model/product evaluation criteria connecting user value, community health, and Reddit's broader strategy.
- Reason about AI/ML quality, including precision, recall, error costs, coverage, latency, failure modes, human review, and feedback loops.
- Assess high-stakes ecosystem tradeoffs across community health, moderator trust, user trust, safety, and product quality.
- Partner with Engineering, Data Science/ML, Design, Safety, Consumer, and senior leaders to drive execution.
- Communicate strategy, decisions, tradeoffs, and learning clearly to executive stakeholders.
Must Haves
- Staff-level product experience owning meaningful consumer surfaces or systems with measurable user impact.
- Exceptional product sense across user intuition, problem framing, prioritization, UX judgment, and product taste.
- Track record leading ambiguous zero-to-one or major product-evolution work from strategy through launch and learning.
- Experience building AI/ML-powered products, with fluency in model evaluation and product/model tradeoffs.
- Strong analytical judgment, including defining metrics, interpreting evidence, and changing direction when needed.
- Excellent cross-functional leadership with Engineering, Data Science/ML, Design, Safety, and partner teams in ambiguous, technically complex spaces.
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience with community, social, creator, UGC, trust/safety, or moderation products.
- Experience with ML-heavy consumer surfaces or policy-sensitive AI experiences.
- Experience replacing mature systems with a new product paradigm in complex, matrixed organizations.
