Product Manager, Safety Platform

Remote (U.S.)

Discord is used by over 200 million people every month for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does on our platform: play video games. Over 90% of our users play games, spending a combined 1.5 billion hours playing thousands of unique titles on Discord each month. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming. We are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to talk and hang out before, during, and after playing games.

Discord is about giving people the power to create space to find belonging in their lives. We want to make it easier for you to talk regularly with the people you care about. We want you to build genuine relationships with your friends and communities close to home or around the world. Original, reliable, playful, and relatable. These are the values that connect our users and our employees at Discord. 

As the Product Manager for Safety Platform, you'll drive the vision, strategy, and roadmap for Discord's safety systems. This team is the glue that holds our safety features together. They build the infrastructure that powers everything from detection layers to policy enforcement systems to user-facing features — and beyond. Keeping users safe is crucial for Discord's growth, and Safety Platform provides the foundation for this vital work. We're seeking an impact-driven, hands-on Product Manager to steer this team. This role reports to the Director of Product for Trust.

  • Independently make decisions for your product area, gain buy-in from leadership, and act as a momentum catalyst for your execution team
  • Balance day-to-day execution with long-term product vision — you must be comfortable moving quickly to respond to the moving target of abuse on Discord

What You Should Have

  • 3+ years product management experience or experience building and shipping great software, including responsibilities driving prioritization, trade-offs, and timelines
  • Proven track record of shipping products from design to deployment
  • Confidence to dive into the technical details and challenge designs or solutions with Platform Engineers and Machine Learning stakeholders

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
