Experienced in qualitative and quantitative research, with a strong preference for experience analyzing social media data in some capacity (e.g. as part of academic or prior work project).

A well-developed understanding—either through research, study, or experience—of one of the following areas:

social media research, government and politics (including international politics), disinformation, information operations, violent extremism, quantitative analysis, computer science, or cybersecurity.

Experienced at briefing verbally and writing on complex and disparate findings.

Able to think strategically, see the big picture, and, when necessary, act independently and decisively in alignment with the team's best interests and the organization's broader goals.

Comfortable with a fast-paced start-up environment that involves regular iteration and improvement of existing products and processes.

A great teammate and have a collaborative mindset.

Preferred Qualifications (not required):
Bachelor's or Master's degree in a related discipline (e.g. social science, computer science, intelligence studies, etc.)

Prior work experience analyzing social media data.

Familiarity with the disinformation space (e.g. through academic research, training, or prior work experience).

Note
:

This role involves potential exposure to sensitive or disturbing content, including but not limited to vulgar language and violent threats.

Compensation and Benefits

Salary and stock options are negotiated based on experience.

Healthcare at the gold-tier level, dental, and vision is fully funded by the employer. 50% of dependent coverage is provided by the employer.

Unlimited vacation, sick leave, including office closure between Christmas and New Year's, and extended holidays at Thanksgiving and the 4th of July.
