Senior Engineering Analyst

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in a quantitative field (e.g., Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering) or equivalent practical experience.
• 5 years of experience in a Trust and Safety, anti-abuse, security engineering, or data analysis role.
• Experience constructing SQL queries and utilizing data extraction techniques to analyze datasets.
• Experience designing, testing, and implementing technical solutions, workflows.
• Experience working with AI/LLM technologies or Machine Learning models.

Nice to haves:

• Understanding of software engineering and automation principles, with experience in a data-focused scripting language (e.g., Python, C++, or R).
• Ability to collaborate with a variety of stakeholders ranging from policy to engineering teams to gather technical requirements, explain model architectures, and iterate on system improvements.
• Exceptional communication skills, along with the ability to synthesize complex analytical projects into actionable product insights for cross-functional or executive audiences.
• Proficiency in data visualization and statistical analysis techniques to map abuse journeys and evaluate system performance.

What you'll be doing:

• Design, implement, and optimize scalable enforcement workflows, models, and technical solutions from scratch to protect the YouTube monetization ecosystem.
• Co-develop product protections and integrate Generative AI/Large Language Models (LLMs) technologies (e.g., machine-readable policies, AI agents) with partner engineers.
• Write complex, efficient SQL and Python code independently to extract and analyze high-volume product metadata and compute classifier performance metrics.
• Perform complex anti-abuse investigations and deep-dive data analyses to identify system gaps, discover novel threat vectors, and implement robust mitigations. Review controversial or offensive content to validate and improve the precision and recall of Applied AI and automated protection systems.
• Translate complex, nuanced technical concepts and data insights into recommendations to influence leadership and cross-functional strategies. Drive outcomes for multiple adjacent technical projects, managing priorities, resource allocation, and project timelines across quarters.
