Bluesky’s mission is to build an open protocol for the social internet. As Bluesky continues to grow and explore new product surfaces, Trust & Safety needs to be embedded early in product strategy, design, and launch readiness. We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager, Trust & Safety and AI Safety to serve as the primary product partner between Trust & Safety, Product, Engineering and Legal. This person will own our product risk assessment process, lead operational readiness for AI-adjacent product work, and help ensure new features are built with safety considerations from the start. This is a high-context, cross-functional role for someone who can move between strategy and execution: understanding emerging product risks, translating them into clear operational requirements, driving alignment across teams, and building repeatable systems that help Bluesky ship quickly and responsibly.
Job Responsibility
Own the product risk assessment process end-to-end for new feature launches, including intake, scoping, risk categorization, mitigation tracking, launch readiness, and post-launch review
Serve as the primary trust & safety liaison to product and engineering for new product development, ensuring safety considerations are included early in specs, roadmap conversations, and launch planning
Lead trust & safety product thinking for AI-adjacent product work, including harm framework operationalization, launch readiness, tooling needs, queue impact, escalation paths, moderator training, and communications posture
Build and maintain repeatable launch readiness frameworks for trust & safety, including checklists, templates, trackers, and feedback loops from post-launch moderation and operational observations
Partner with product, engineering, policy, legal, comms, and operations to identify risks, define mitigations, and clarify ownership across complex or ambiguous product launches
Establish a forward-looking roadmap for trust & safety product needs, including internal tooling, AI safety capabilities, detection systems, queue routing, escalation infrastructure, reporting, and risk dashboards
Act as the trust & safety product counterpart in roadmap reviews, product planning rituals, spec reviews, and launch readiness checks
Translate operational trust & safety needs into product requirements that engineering and product can act on
Identify strategic opportunities where trust & safety systems, automation, tooling, or process improvements can compound over time
Help move trust & safety from a reactive review function to a proactive product partner embedded in how Bluesky builds
Requirements
Experience in product management, trust & safety, integrity, platform safety, AI safety, risk, or a closely related field
Experience working on consumer products at scale, especially products with user-generated content, social interactions, recommendations, messaging, AI features, or other high-risk surfaces
Strong at identifying product risks early and translating them into practical mitigations, operational requirements, and launch criteria
Can build systems from scratch: intake processes, risk assessment frameworks, launch readiness checklists, product requirements, trackers, and cross-functional operating rhythms
Comfortable working across Product, Engineering, Policy, Legal, Comms, and Operations, and can drive clarity when ownership is ambiguous
Strong product judgment and can balance user experience, safety, operational feasibility, legal exposure, and company velocity
Thoughtful about AI safety and can reason about how AI-enabled features may create new forms of user harm, abuse, manipulation, operational burden, or regulatory risk
Communicates clearly in writing and can create crisp documentation that helps teams make decisions
Likes working on small, fast-moving teams with high autonomy
Excited to help build the safety foundations for an open social protocol
