Senior Data Analyst

Modulate builds voice intelligence technology that enables organizations and platforms to understand what happens when people connect online.

Our flagship product, ToxMod, is a voice moderation platform that is used by some of the largest gaming studios in the world, including Activision, Riot Games, and Rockstar. We use machine learning models that identify the worst behaviors happening across millions of voice chats, allowing Trust & Safety teams to take action against racism, threats of violence, and other kinds of harms at scale. 

Identifying and escalating that behavior to safety teams is only a part of what we do. We also provide leaders on these teams with the information they need to make the best decisions about how to protect their community. We’re always learning alongside our customers and being challenged by new use cases for our technology. The reports we create and deliver to our customers and partners help them create robust moderation strategies, figure out where to deploy ToxMod for maximum impact, and transparently report their progress to the industry and to regulators.
