**Job:** User Safety at Twitter

**Salary:** not stated

**What it entails:** Looking out for nasty, abusive and unacceptable comments. "The User Safety team is responsible for identifying, investigating, and resolving user safety and abuse issues reported by our users," says the ad.

**What you need:** The nature of the job means the person needs to be "comfortable working primarily on issues related to sensitive content". A second language is a plus and the company also wants someone with a "deep and abiding appreciation for memes". Obviously an active Twitter account would help. Two years of experience at an internet company "preferred". Also, experience in project management and data analysis.
