Research Scientist, Demography and Survey Science, University Grad
The Demography and Survey Science team's mission is to improve the way we make decisions and measure impact both within and outside of Meta. We collect and analyze rich survey and behavioral datasets to understand new challenges, solve problems, and shape decisions. We are looking for quantitative social scientists with experience answering complex research questions to join us in this effort.
Our interdisciplinary team includes those with expertise in statistical inference, survey methodology, causal inference and econometrics, regression modeling, exploratory data analysis, and mathematical demography, among other areas. In this role, you ll own research end-to-end. This means you ll navigate trade-offs while designing projects, proposing appropriate methodologies, analyzing data, and communicating results to diverse audiences in order to drive impactful decisions.
Strong candidates may include social scientists, applied statisticians, or other applied researchers with expertise in quantitative research methods, experience working with large datasets and relational databases, and experience with survey methodology (e.g., bias correction, sampling). We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate methodological rigor, strong communication skills, and the ability to make research design choices that balance competing tradeoffs effectively.Research Scientist, Demography and Survey Science, University Grad ResponsibilitiesDevelop a research agenda and drive research projects from end-to-endCollaborate with cross-functional teams across the company to define relevant research questionsDesign and deploy appropriate research methodologies to answer those questionsDevelop innovate new approaches to resolve challenging problemsProvide teams with usable measurement strategies and methodologies to make better decisionsDeliver insights and recommendations clearly to relevant audiencesMinimum QualificationsCurrently has, or in the process of, obtaining a(n) Master s in social sciences (e.g., Economics, Political Science, Sociology, Psychology, Communication), or in a quantitative field (e.g., Statistics, Informatics, Econometrics) with experience answering social questionsSkilled in at least three or more of the following skills:
