About Sirak Takele

I’m a Trust & Safety professional with 6+ years of experience leading global policy enforcement, high-severity investigations, and operational risk mitigation. I’ve owned initiatives across misinformation, synthetic media, hateful conduct, privacy, and child safety. In each of my roles, I was responsible for crafting policies and building scalable workflows that balance user safety, platform integrity, and freedom of expression.At Twitter/X, I drove the launch of new enforcement protocols that improved SLA resolution times by 55% and increased policy compliance accuracy across vendor teams. I developed policies that led to a 73% uptick in enforcement actions (Q1 post-launch), created training documentation for global escalations, and helped streamline tooling to support more efficient case reviews.Post-Twitter, I’ve consulted with early-stage startups and social platforms, writing policies, establishing SLAs, and building processes that support fast, compliant growth. I also own and operate multi-family real estate, applying data-driven strategy to drive passive income and long-term ROI.I thrive in ambiguity, collaborate cross-functionally with policy, ops, legal, and engineering, and remain committed to creating safer, more accountable digital ecosystems.
