Obviously necessary...but I can't imagine a less-desirable job, for 99.9% of decent human beings.

If you just sit 8 hours a day effectively solving the world's most gruesome captcha, I wouldn't last long.
I think it's a holdover from a puritan mindset that work that needs doing but is unsavory— slaughterhouse workers, exterminators, executioners, and well… this are only okay if the person doing it feels bad the whole time.
With how easily so-called AI's are to maliciously mis-train, there are major issues with having "non-decent" people doing this job. Vs. the homicide-enjoying hangman is not making judgement calls on society's behalf.
I think the distinction is:
Some people are okay with the job because they're pedophiles.
Others are okay with the job because they're insensitive to violence.
"Decent" is slightly moralistic and blurs the picture. The people can be absolute assholes, and that's okay, as long as they're not personally motivated to collect and spread CSAM material. So we're really looking for a bunch of psychopaths (in the most well-intended meaning of the word) indifferent to children. I think it's possible to make a qualifying test for both criteria.
I don't want him looking away at the last minute.

The Dexter tv series did popularise the idea of an externally moral psychopath mass murderer.
Or rather, if you happen to be a person who just wants to kill, at least channel your energy.
Anyone who actually wants to be a hangman (or police, military, president, etc) should be immediately forbidden from applying for the job. The desire to wield power disqualifies anyone from actually wielding it wisely.
