About the Team Community Trust (CT) exists to foster an environment where streamers and their communities thrive, while proactively reducing harm and ensuring support is accessible when needed. Our organization encompasses safety policy & enforcement, fraud prevention, and customer experience. Within CT, the Business Operations & Integrations team is the operational backbone – encompassing four functions (Business Operations, Financial & Contract Management, Go-to-Market, and Safety by Design) split across two sub-teams: BizOps and Integrations. The Integrations team – which this role sits on – is the connective tissue between Community Trust and the rest of Twitch.

We also co-own Safety By Design, the process by which safety risks are identified and mitigated before products ship. We're building a team that can anticipate what's coming and react to what's arrived – getting CT into planning conversations earlier, simplifying how Twitch launches safely at scale, and building the systems that allow a small team to have outsized impact.
