Threat Intelligence Analyst, Threat Disruption

Written by the T&S Network from SpaceXAI's posting.

Threat intelligence and enforcement work against adversaries attacking X, covering platform manipulation, account compromises, sensitive influence allegations, financial fraud and scam networks, and other rules violations including illegal activity and child safety. The team investigates how bad actors evade defenses and abuse product features, then runs large sweeps to disrupt them and recommends systemic fixes to product, engineering, and policy.

• Coordinated manipulation
• Fraud and scams
• Child safety and grooming
• Spam and platform abuse

What you'd do

• Investigate coordinated bot networks, account compromises, and suspected foreign-linked influence campaigns on X
• Trace how adversaries circumvent defenses and abuse features, and how they profit from it
• Build and carry out sweeps that clear out adversary accounts in the hundreds of thousands to millions
• Recommend fixes to product, engineering, and policy teams to close systemic vulnerabilities
• Coordinate with law enforcement and external parties where appropriate to support detection and prosecution
• Handle urgent incidents escalated by leadership and brief leadership on outcomes

What it asks for

• Solid SQL skills for digging through huge, messy datasets
• Comfort with the command line, scripting, and AI tools to scale work
• Clear, precise writing and speaking skills
• Background in probing manipulation, account takeovers, influence ops, or fraud (preferred)
• Track record of converting findings into product fixes and enforcement results (preferred)
• Experience in a 24/7 on-call rotation, owning urgent incidents and briefing leadership (preferred)

Worth knowing

• On-call rotation covering weekends, holidays, and multiple time zones
• Requires U.S. citizenship, green card, refugee, or asylee status, or eligibility for State Department authorization under ITAR
