About Alethea:
Founded in 2019, with the mission to protect the truth, Alethea is a tech company that detects and mitigates instances of disinformation and social media manipulation to help clients navigate the new digital reality. We protect clients from the threat of disinformation that targets brands, reputations, employee safety, or financial bottom lines through our industry-leading investigation and remediation services.
Position Summary:
Are you a recent college graduate with a passion for analysis and a keen interest in countering the effects of disinformation? Alethea is looking for a Junior Analyst to join our team analyzing social media manipulation and online threats targeting our clients.
In this entry-level role, you'll be working closely with experienced analysts, learning the ropes of daily monitoring, and conducting OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) investigations. Your primary responsibilities will include analyzing social media data and other online sources to identify potential risks. You'll also support the team by assisting in the creation of client briefing materials and contributing to the development of detailed reports.
