Job Description

Senior Adaptive Data Analyst

Discord | Remote (U.S. Based)

Full-Time | $180K–$202.5K + Equity & Benefits


As a Senior Adaptive Data Analyst at Discord, I drive the proactive defense against scaled abuse—including spam, account takeovers, and payments fraud—by combining the rigor of data science with the real-time impact of anti-abuse engineering. This role sits at the intersection of safety, machine learning, and data analytics, within a highly collaborative, cross-functional environment. With a user base of over 200 million and a platform central to the gaming experience, the stakes are high—and the opportunity to make a difference is massive.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Detect, analyze, and mitigate scaled abuse threats using a blend of heuristic rules and ML classifiers.
  • Design and lead data-driven investigations into emerging threat vectors; develop actionable safety strategies based on insights.
  • Draft and champion RFCs for new features and data tooling to improve Discord’s anti-abuse capabilities.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Safety Engineering, ML, Trust & Safety, and Customer Experience teams to address complex safety issues and implement scalable solutions.
  • Monitor real-time abuse metrics, appeals, and community reports to identify new patterns and adversarial behavior.
  • Contribute to and review safety-focused product development efforts, anticipating abuse vectors in new features before they go live.


What I Bring:

  • 5+ years of experience with Python or JavaScript and advanced SQL for large-scale data analysis.
  • 3+ years specializing in anti-abuse or trust & safety roles, with a proven record of developing adaptive defenses against adversarial behavior.
  • Deep understanding of experimentation, A/B testing, and causal inference methods in production environments.
  • Strong troubleshooting and investigative skills for identifying root causes and crafting scalable mitigations.
  • Exceptional communication skills and the ability to bridge the gap between technical depth and strategic context for stakeholders of all levels.
  • Hands-on knowledge of software engineering practices including version control, documentation, and spec development.


Bonus Strengths:

  • Experience as a Data Scientist, ML Engineer, or Security Engineer in consumer-scale products.
  • Skilled in designing innovative metrics to expose new abuse surfaces.
  • Background in building and operationalizing ML models and performing sophisticated feature engineering.
  • Passion for safety, resilience, and creating better digital spaces for users.
