Product Manager, Moderation

Job Description

About Quora The vast majority of human knowledge is still not on the internet. Most of it is trapped in the form of experience in people's heads, or buried in books and papers that only experts can access. More than a billion people use the internet, yet only a tiny fraction contribute their knowledge to it. We want to democratize access to knowledge of all kinds — from politics to painting, cooking to coding, etymology to experiences — so if someone out there knows something, anyone else can learn it. Our mission is to share and grow the world's knowledge, and we're building a world-class team to help us achieve this mission. About the Team & Role We're now looking for a Product Manager to own moderation. In this role, you'll be responsible for establishing what content should and shouldn't be on Quora, and the design and implementation of systems to enforce those policies, many of which involve machine learning. Our product managers excel at and are responsible for guiding, enabling, and accelerating the efforts of our designers, engineers, and data scientists to build and ship successful products. This position is full-time and based in Quora's headquarters in Mountain View.

Responsibilities:

• Identify key product needs and solutions related to content quality and the scaling of our moderation systems
• Manage project ambiguity, complexity and interdependencies in an organized and structured way
• Research the consumer web content policy ecosystem to inform policy decisions and implementation
• Partner cross-functionally with engineering, design, product, data science, legal, and marketing teams to gather requirements for, define, implement, and communicate changes related to our moderation processes
• Define objectives, metrics, and key results to help guide, prioritize, and measure the success of initiatives

Minimum Qualifications:

• B.S. in Computer Science or a related engineering or mathematical discipline
• 2+ years Product Management experience at a consumer Internet company
• Adept at using qualitative and quantitative data to drive decisions
• Empathy for and understanding of Internet users' needs, behaviors, and motivations

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in or familiarity with machine learning, data science, statistics, or financial modeling
• Experience working with SQL
• Curiosity and passion for Quora
