About Verifymy

Verifymy is a Trust &​ Safety technology business dedicated to safeguarding children and society online. We provide frictionless, trustworthy Age Assurance, Identity Verification, and Content Moderation solutions to help platforms maintain their integrity, protect their reputation, and meet their regulatory obligations.

Our products serve platforms across social media, marketplaces, gaming, adult content, and other age-gated or regulated industries. We count marquee clients such as eBay, Google, Microsoft and Snap Inc among our partners.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a product-minded Lead Product Manager to own the product vision and roadmap across our content moderation, age assurance, and identity verification capabilities.

You will lead cross-functional teams to deliver innovative computer vision and verification solutions, work closely with engineering and ML teams to advance our AI capabilities, and shape the future of digital content safety, all while ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory requirements including the Online Safety Act, Ofcom’s codes of practice, and international age verification standards.

This role sits at the intersection of product, compliance, and technology. You’ll be equally comfortable defining detection model requirements as you are navigating the regulatory landscape around CSAM, age-gated content, and platform accountability. If you’ve worked in trust &​ safety, compliance, content moderation, or identity verification and want to shape how regulated platforms protect their users, this is a rare opportunity.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

• 4+ years of product management experience, including time in a senior or lead capacity
• Experience shipping B2B SaaS products and a demonstrable track record of delivery
• Some experience with or strong interest in trust &​ safety, content moderation, identity verification, or adjacent compliance technology
• Awareness of the regulatory landscape for online safety (e.g. Online Safety Act, Ofcom); deep regulatory expertise can be developed in the role
• Working knowledge of API-first product development and platform integrations
• Comfortable working alongside engineering and ML teams, with a willingness to develop technical knowledge on the job
• Familiarity with modern software architecture, APIs, and cloud-based systems
• Ability to translate complex AI/ML concepts, content safety challenges, and regulatory requirements for non-technical stakeholders
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Proven experience shipping a product from 0 to 1. You have taken a new product or feature from concept through to launch in a previous role, and can speak to the decisions, trade-offs, and lessons learned along the way.

Nice to Have

• Experience with age estimation, document-based age verification, or liveness detection technologies
• Background in trust &​ safety, content policy, digital forensics, or compliance consulting
• Knowledge of content moderation standards, hash databases (PhotoDNA, PDQ), and CSAM detection technologies
• Understanding of the adult content and/or social media regulatory landscape, including the Digital Economy Act and Ofcom enforcement
• Experience with product analytics tools and metrics-driven decision-making
• Proficiency with data analysis, statistical interpretation, and A/B testing methodologies
• Knowledge of biometric verification, document verification, or KYC/AML product development

What You’ll Work On

Product Strategy &​ Vision

• Define and execute the product strategy and roadmap for the Verifymy content moderation and verification platform.
• Conduct market research and competitive analysis in the trust &​ safety, content moderation, and age assurance space.
• Collaborate with senior leadership to align product strategy with business objectives and the evolving regulatory landscape.
• Monitor emerging threats, content safety trends, and regulatory developments (including Ofcom enforcement actions) to inform product direction.

Product Development &​ Delivery

• Define detailed product requirements and user stories for content detection, classification, moderation, and age verification workflows.
• Prioritise feature development based on platform safety needs, regulatory requirements, and technical feasibility.
• Manage product backlogs and sprint planning in collaboration with engineering and ML teams.
• Ensure timely delivery of high-quality product releases with rigorous testing for accuracy and bias.

Customer &​ Market Focus

• Engage directly with clients and their technical, trust &​ safety, and compliance teams to understand moderation and verification challenges.
• Analyse content pipeline metrics, detection accuracy, verification completion rates, and moderation efficiency to identify improvements.
• Collaborate with sales and customer success teams to gather feedback from platforms, creators, and regulated operators.
• Monitor industry trends in content moderation, CSAM detection, synthetic media, AI-generated content risks, and age assurance.

Compliance &​ Risk Management

• Ensure product development aligns with regulatory requirements (Online Safety Act, GDPR, UK GDPR, CSAM regulations, Digital Economy Act).
• Stay current with evolving online safety regulations, codes of practice, age-verification standards, and content-moderation best practices globally to inform the product roadmap.
• Balance automated detection with human review requirements across content types and jurisdictions.
