Thorn is a non-profit focused on building technology to defend children from sexual abuse. Working at Thorn gives you the opportunity to apply your skills, expertise and passions to directly impact the lives of vulnerable and abused children. Our staff solves dynamic, quickly evolving problems with our network of partners from tech companies, NGOs, and law enforcement agencies. If you are able to bring clarity to complexity and lightness to heavy problems, you could be a great fit for our team. Without a doubt you are a passionate technical leader that adeptly navigates between the big picture, details, and team dynamics.
Earlier this year, we took the stage at TED and shared our audacious goal (https://www.pscp.tv/TEDTalks/1zqJVawyjVdGB?t=1h36m44s https://www.pscp.tv/TEDTalks/1zqJVawyjVdGB?t=1h36m44s) of eliminating child sexual abuse material from the internet. A key aspect of our work is partnering with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and building technology to optimize the broader ecosystem combating online child sexual abuse.

- josiahpeters 7y agoI would definitely recommend watching the TED talked linked above to get a glimpse of the impact that this work can have. I watched it for the first time after last months' Who is hiring thread and it opened my eyes to what is going on. Major props to the Thorn team for tackling such a dark problem head on.
