Twitter Is Getting Serious About Battling Spam

If you follow iconic Twitter account @TweetSmarter, you have no doubt noticed the abundance of scams and spam hitting Twitter lately. But while TweetSmarter tries to alert you to the latest scams, they can’t cover it all – which is why Twitter itself needs to step up its spam-fighting efforts.

The Next Web noticed that Twitter added a new job opening earlier today, for a full-time software engineer to work on its anti-spam team.

From the sounds of the description, Twitter is looking for more than one engineer to fill this position.
