Quality & Training Specialist - VSO - Chinese at TikTok in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Responsibilities
The Quality & Training Specialist (QTS) department ensures that safety policies are enforced accurately and consistently at scale. The Q&T Market Lead acts as the strategic bridge between high-level policy and boots-on-the-ground execution. While Specialists focus on quality assurance, the Lead focuses on systemic scalability, proactive operational risk identification and mitigation, and team excellence.
- This role requires commitment to work shifts, weekends, and public holidays as operational needs demand.
- What will I be doing?
- Quality Assurance & Auditing: Conduct regular analytical audits of human moderation, ensuring all processes comply with data protection and Trust & Safety standards while maintaining specific audit targets (e.g., Accuracy, RCA, and Appeal success rates).
- Data Analysis & RCA: Perform deep-dives into recurring quality issues through Root Cause Analysis (RCA), spot error patterns, and translate data into actionable feedback for Operational Guidelines & Standards and Operations Teams to drive continuous process optimization.
- Policy Interpretation & Curation: Act as an authority to provide expert judgment on complex, ambiguous, or high-risk cases under quality methodologies and processes (like KOM). Deeply interpret safety guidelines and validate "golden sets" (benchmark data) to guide enforcement accuracy.
- Calibration & Collaboration: Lead calibration sessions to ensure consistency across different moderation teams. Partner with cross-functional stakeholders (BPO Partners, PPS, PS, and OGS teams) to simplify complex policy explanations and drive global quality goals.
- Operational Oversight & Escalation: Manage and resolve unprecedented "edge cases" with speed and accuracy. Drive policy cascading to ensure new policies & operational guidelines updates are 100% communicated and implemented across all relevant internal and external partners.
- Technical Reporting & AI Utilization: Leverage AI to improve performance and reduce manual, repetitive tasks. Utilize QA dashboards, RCA tools, and calibration platforms to prepare comprehensive weekly and monthly reports focusing on market accuracy, error trends, and policy gaps.
- Training & Policy Cascade: Lead or support training rollouts for new policy changes and operational guideline updates, especially for BPO staff, ensuring changes are clearly understood, operationalized, and consistently applied. This is estimated to take up around 20% of total monthly output deliverables.
- This role requires commitment to work shifts, weekends, and public holidays as operational needs demand.
Requirements
Minimum Qualification(s)
- Quality Assurance Experience: Min 1 year of proven expertise in conducting analytical audits, tracking performance targets, and maintaining data integrity within a trust and safety, compliance, or high-volume operational environment.

High level of self-motivation with the ability to operate independently, demonstrate end-to-end ownership, and thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.
- Policy Interpretation & Judgment: Deep understanding of content policies and SOPs, with the critical thinking skills required to make expert judgments on complex or high-risk escalation cases.
- Cross-Functional Communication: Excellent stakeholder management skills with the ability to lead calibration sessions, deliver training, and partner with BPO and internal teams to align on global quality goals.
