10a Labs: Threat Investigator (apply now!)

About 10a Labs:

10a Labs’ Investigations Team needs additional support to conduct investigations and expand into other abuse verticals that are currently unstaffed like National Security Organizations, Extremism, Hate, Cyber, CBRNE, and more.

About the Role:

As a threat investigator, you will be supporting our Investigations Team and responsible for detecting and/or responding to malicious uses and abuse (such as, but not limited to, influence operations), investigating the activity, drafting reports based on your findings, and making recommendations. This will require experience investigating threat actors, cyber operations, and/or other activities; and an ability to use SQL and Python to query data. You will also respond to escalations and reactive leads, including those that are not caught by our existing safety systems.

This role could include serving in an on-call capacity that will involve resolving urgent escalations, potentially outside of normal work hours. Some investigations may involve sensitive content, including sexual, violent, or otherwise-disturbing material.

In this role, you will:

  • Proactively detect and reacquire bad actors on our platform
  • Investigate potentially policy-violating activity by querying internal data sources (using SQL and Python) and cross-referencing open source information
  • Document and share investigative findings with internal stakeholders

Requirements:

  • Full professional proficiency in Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, Portuguese, Russian, or Spanish, as well as English
  • Familiarity with technical investigations, especially using SQL and Python
  • Have at least 3+ years of experience working on related topics
  • Ability to rapidly context switch across domains, modalities, and abuse areas
  • Excited to work in a fast paced and ambiguous space

Desired Qualities (but not required):

  • Have experience scaling and automating processes, especially with language models
  • Familiarity using language models to scale
  • Familiarity with one of the following topics/areas: transnational repression/dissident targeting/national security organization work; spam and fraud abuse, including in the financial space; radicalization/persuasion/grooming; hateful activities and groups

At 10a Labs, diversity is central to our mission. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and are committed to creating an inclusive, equitable work environment.
