OpenRouter is hiring for a Software Engineer, Trust & Safety role (full-time). See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • 4+ years building and operating production systems, ideally including work in trust & safety, fraud, payments risk, security, or anti-abuse.
  • Proficient in React, TypeScript, Next.js, and JS runtimes.
  • Ability to write SQL against large event datasets and reason about base rates, precision and recall, and the cost of a wrong decision.
  • Sound judgment when working with incomplete evidence.
  • High agency and a bias toward action; spotting problems, iterating, and shipping without waiting for tickets.
  • AI-forward in your workflow, using coding agents often, finding interesting ways to automate your work, and holding opinions about what works and what doesn't.
  • Comfortable in a small, fast-moving environment where boundaries between teams are intentionally fluid.
  • Discretion and resilience, since parts of this role may involve reviewing or discussing disturbing content and handling sensitive user data.
