Make sound, timely decisions in time-sensitive threat scenarios with minimal supervision

Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies

Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)

Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)

Knowledge of data tools such as SQL, Python, or other data analytics programming coding languages and data visualization tools

Experience working with a team spanning multiple locations/time zones

Experience conducting open source investigations and/or investigations on behalf of a technology company

Proficiency in languages other than English is preferred because the role involves investigating content and threats in specific non-English-speaking regions and communities served by Meta platforms
