Software Engineer, Distributed Systems - Trust & Safety
Why this role matters now
AI has dramatically lowered the barrier for bad actors. Generating convincing phishing pages, spinning up realistic-looking fraudulent accounts, and producing abusive content at scale no longer requires specialized skill — a motivated attacker with access to widely available models can do it.
At the same time, AI is transforming what's possible on the defensive side. A small, sharp T&S team equipped with frontier models can now build detection, triage, and response systems that would have required a team five times the size just a couple of years ago. AI-assisted content scanning, automated investigation workflows, and intelligent alert prioritization mean that a lean team can protect millions of users — if they build the right infrastructure.
About the role
You'll architect and scale the trust infrastructure that keeps 70M+ users safe while preserving the creative freedom that makes Gamma magical. This means designing distributed systems for real-time content scanning, anomaly detection, and rate limiting; helping define and evolve the core data model and storage systems behind abuse detection; and shipping the high-volume event pipelines and internal tools that let our support teams act quickly on threats.
