About Pinterest:
Millions of people across the world come to Pinterest to find new ideas every day. It’s where they get inspiration, dream about new possibilities and plan for what matters most. Our mission is to help those people find their inspiration and create a life they love. In your role, you’ll be challenged to take on work that upholds this mission and pushes Pinterest forward. You’ll grow as a person and leader in your field, all the while helping Pinners make their lives better in the positive corner of the internet.
Creating a life you love also means finding a career that celebrates the unique perspectives and experiences that you bring. As you read through the expectations of the position, consider how your skills and experiences may complement the responsibilities of the role. We encourage you to think through your relevant and transferable skills from prior experiences.
Our new progressive work model is called PinFlex, a term that’s uniquely Pinterest to describe our flexible approach to living and working. Visit our PinFlex landing page to learn more.
We are looking for a Senior Director of Product Policy to lead a global team of policy professionals responsible for developing Pinterest’s industry-leading global platform policies. Trust & Safety is core to Pinterest’s mission and our policies set the foundation for how we build Pinterest as a safe and inclusive space. The Product Policy team develops policies across all types of content, accounts and behavior on the platform, defining what is and isn’t allowed on Pinterest
As the Senior Director of Product Policy, you will lead the development of Pinterest’s platform policies for organic content, advertising, shopping and more. You will collaborate with a broad range of internal stakeholders to inform and get feedback on our policy strategy and partner closely with your fellow Trust & Safety leaders to ensure our policies are enforceable at scale. You will serve as a thought leader on policy issues to leaders and teams across Pinterest, drawing on your deep understanding of policy, industry trends, and Pinterest’s product, mission and business objectives. You will also represent Policy and Trust & Safety to external stakeholders, including press, regulators, partner organizations and industry experts, to share and get feedback on our policy approaches. And you will lead a high-performing, distributed team of policy managers and individual contributors, setting team roadmaps, coaching people managers, and holding the team accountable for delivering outstanding work. This role will sometimes involve reviewing graphic and disturbing content and discussing difficult subjects.
What you’ll do:
- Bring to bear your policy experience, exceptional critical thinking skills, comfort with ambiguity and innovative mindset to drive industry-leading policy positions and solve complex policy challenges.
- Become a trusted partner for our Enforcement Operations, Product, Legal, Public Policy, Corporate Affairs, Communications and Sales teams, among others, and collaborate with them to develop, iterate on, and implement Pinterest’s policies.
- Engage with external experts, industry partners, regulators, and the press to share and get feedback on Pinterest’s policy approaches.
- Lead a global team, set team strategy, coach people managers, and foster a collaborative, innovative, and psychologically safe team environment that allows all team members to do their best work.
- Stay abreast of industry trends related to online content platforms and anticipate and plan for policy updates to support Pinterest’s continued growth amid a dynamic regulatory and industry landscape.
What we’re looking for:
- An experienced people manager with a passion for developing others, experience managing managers, conducting strategic planning, and holding teams accountable for achieving goals.
- Demonstrated expertise developing content safety, advertising and/or other platform policies for a large, global platform.
- Exceptional critical thinking and decision making skills. The ability to thrive amid ambiguity and make hard decisions with limited information.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including executive presentation skills. Experience representing companies externally and engaging with the media.
- Experience building and maintaining strong and productive relationships with a wide variety of internal (e.g. Ops, Legal, Product, Comms, Public Policy) and external stakeholders (civil society groups, regulators, industry groups).
- Experience managing high-profile escalations while maintaining composure and strong decision quality.
- Strong understanding of regulatory and industry trends and best practices in tech policy and enforcement.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
