About the Team

The Feed Safety-Model & Data Intelligence team within TikTok Platform Responsibility ensures that AI models meet the highest bar before they make content safety decisions affecting billions of users. Our work spans three layers:

• Standards & Governance — We define and iterate the safety standards that AI systems must follow, translating complex policy intent into structured, machine-interpretable frameworks. This requires deep governance thinking: navigating trade-offs between safety, fairness, user experience, and enforcement consistency.
• AI/ML Solution Design — We partner closely with algorithm teams to improve model accuracy and stability across safety scenarios, tackling challenges unique to this domain — adversarial content, imbalanced distributions, and deep contextual understanding. We evaluate, select, and help shape the right AI approaches (LLMs, prompting strategies, agentic workflows, etc.) for each problem.
• Rigorous Evaluation — We design statistically grounded evaluation frameworks, build high-quality ground truth datasets, and ensure our assessments are valid, reproducible, and actionable — so the platform can confidently ship AI-powered safety systems at scale.

Our work sits at the intersection of AI/ML product development, trust & safety policy, and data-driven quality assurance — ensuring that AI systems can be reliably deployed for high-precision content review and risk governance at scale.

We are looking for talented individuals to join us for an internship. Our internship program offers students hands-on experience, industry exposure, and opportunities to apply their knowledge to real-world challenges
