Competitive Intelligence Lead
About the role
As an Analyst in Meta’s Competitive Intelligence organization, you will operate at the intersection of analytics, data science, and market strategy. You will work on major projects and product areas (often in environments of significant ambiguity or technical complexity) to drive both technical and business outcomes. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for builders who thrive on solving real problems. This role demands a unique blend of analytical and statistical knowledge, strategic thinking, and the ability to translate complex insights into impactful product and business decisions. You will be recognized as a thought partner by cross-functional leads and will help shape the analytical foundations that inform how we build and grow our products. Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today—beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.
Responsibilities
- Market Strategy: Influence organization-level product direction through data-driven narratives and an in depth understanding of the competitive landscape. Demonstrated experience operating at scale, and across ambiguous, environments with working knowledge of econometrics. As a quantitative market-strategist, you will blend practical and applied understanding with technical expertise, including pressure-testing data for quality, reliability, understanding data biases and being solution-driven.
- Analytics Leadership: Conduct analyses with 3P datasets, develop statistical models and forecasts, and deliver actionable insights that inform market and business strategy. These include, but are not limited to: Data onboarding: Identify, onboard, and rigorously evaluate 3P datasets to determine their signal-to-noise ratio and predictive power. Data triangulation: Triangulate data from many sources of imperfect information. Synthesize multiple, low-fidelity 3rd-party signals into a single high-fidelity trend report using Bayesian aggregation or other methods. Data transformation: Apply quasi-experimental designs (e.g., synthetic control, diff-in-diff) to isolate the impact of exogenous market shocks and competitor actions on internal performance metrics, using 3rd-party behavioral and economic datasets. Insight and implications: Apply guidance from analyses to increase the accuracy of forecasts and better understand market trends
