We are looking for our first Software Engineer, User Safety Tooling!
As an Engineer on our User Safety team, you'll design and build internal systems to protect our users, support data collection, and ensure compliance with global regulations. You'll join a small, fast-paced team where you'll have the freedom to be creative and develop innovative safety tools that make a real impact.
At amo, we're building social apps that bring friends together, and ensuring user safety is a critical part of our mission. You'll work directly with our User Safety lead to create the infrastructure that keeps our community safe.
Design and build highly-scalable, efficient, and robust trust and safety platforms and tools, including data tracking pipelines.
Develop systems to enhance data collection, compliance, and safety processes.
Create APIs and integrations with third-party services.
Create intelligent workflows including automating complex decision-making processes.
Understand product objectives to develop user-friendly platforms that align with operational needs.
Ensure safety services have zero downtime and can scale as our user base grows.
At least 5 years of experience in trust and safety tooling or content moderation systems.
Proficiency in designing data structures, building algorithms, and at least one programming language (Go, Kotlin, C, or C++).
Great communication and teamwork skills.
Demonstrated passion for user safety, human moderation, AI moderation, and operational efficiency.
Experience with web development and frontend technologies.
Familiarity with regulatory requirements related to online safety (DSA, etc.).
Experience working with machine learning models and data pipelines.
To ensure that everyone is set up for success within our way of working, we work together onsite 5 days a week.
We wanted to make sure coming to the office was as comfortable as possible for you:
We chose a location in central Paris, near Opera (Metro lines 3,8,9 and RER A).
We have a beautiful Parisian-style office with high ceilings, balconies, and huge windows. So a lot of natural light!
Because life outside of work should also be stress-free, we cover:
Health care (100% coverage).
Maternity Leave, Paternity Leave, Second Parent Leave (salary maintained at 100%).
Vacation days: 8-9 weeks (total) per year - (European summer? 🥹😎).
5 weeks of paid time off (by the state);
1-2 additional weeks (RTT, based on our company contract);
~11 bank holidays.
We shut down entirely twice a year, two weeks in summer and one week in winter to allow everyone to truly recharge and to avoid prolonged slowdowns (especially in the summer). These pauses are part of your total vacation time, giving everyone a real chance to unplug and recharge. No Slack, no email, no FOMO.
Relocation
We love the diverse perspectives we get from having people from all over the world join us (68% of our team is international), and so we of course support relocation to Paris with:
Help and sponsored visa process.
1 month of Airbnb 100% covered by amo upon arrival.
Assistance from a trusted relocation agency to find your permanent home.
Help with french paperwork like opening a french social security account, tax forms, getting your carte vitale (free healthcare) and more.
French lessons to be fully set with your new Parisian life.

What We Do
Welcome to amo
The bike rides. The sleepovers. Your first cigarette. Gossiping about your latest crush. Being consoled when they break your heart. Discovering a new city. Re-discovering your own (at 2AM). The hungover brunches. The tears. The laughs. The love.
So many of the moments that shaped us were shared with friends.
And then those moments started happening online. Posting photos from last night’s party. Tagging your latest situationship. Poking your roommate (whatever that means??). It was exciting and well intentioned, but something got lost along the way. The platforms that were built to bring friends closer together became places we go to scroll through videos… of strangers.
We’re entertained, but where did our friends go?
A new kind of social company
We believe that friendship still deserves a place online. Our first app, ID, brought a new take on the social profile, providing a collaborative board for you and your friends to express yourselves on. And our second app, Bump, is the best map for friends — giving you a new home on your phone for the people and places most important to you. With Sugar, chatting with friends goes beyond the confines of a green or blue bubble. Drop whatever you want on an unlimited canvas, turning any conversation into art.
Together, the apps form the beginning of a new kind of social company. One that exists across multiple apps, but only one you. And with many more ideas for new ways to bring you closer to your friends. We’re going to experiment, build, re-build again, and no doubt get lots wrong along the way. But we hope that what we get right earns its place on your home screen — as a new collection of apps that serve you and your friends above all else.
On amo, your profile, friendships, and settings are shared across the apps. Trying a new one takes no time at all as your info (and your friends!) are already waiting for you. When we have new ideas, we won’t be constrained by an ever-growing tab bar and the four corners of just one app. We’ll make something entirely new and give you the choice on whether to use it or not. Take what you need, ignore what you don’t.
We feel a real responsibility when it comes to creating stuff for you and your friends — and doing so the right way. We believe that the company that survives long term in this space is the one that aligns itself closest with your best interests. So to keep ourselves accountable, we developed some principles that guide what we do.
