Many successful freelancers also join online trading communities or seek mentors to sharpen their skills and reduce isolation. Regularly analyzing performance and adapting to market changes are key for long-term success and career growth in this field.

What is a freelance trader?

A Freelance Trader is an independent professional who buys and sells financial assets, such as stocks, forex, or cryptocurrencies, to generate profit. Unlike institutional traders, they operate on their own, using personal funds and trading strategies. They analyze market trends, manage risk, and execute trades without the support of a firm. Success in this role requires strong market knowledge, discipline, and risk management skills.

As one of Alice's OSINT/WEBINT Researchers, you'll conduct in-depth open-source and web intelligence research to identify, analyze, and assess a wide range of online threats and harmful activities across platforms.

  • Collect, analyze, and contextualize data from a variety of open and closed sources, including social media platforms, chat applications, gaming platforms, forums, and AI tools
  • Apply OSINT/WEBINT methodologies (search, dorking, verification, network mapping, and trend analysis) to identify indicators of online threats and harmful behavior
  • Prepare concise analytical reports and datasets, summarizing key findings, insights, and emerging risks
  • Stay up to date on global online threat trends and evolving tactics across different platforms
  • Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders (e.g., Delivery, Product, and Policy teams) to ensure timely and high-quality outputs

Requirements
  • 2+ years of experience conducting online research or intelligence analysis (OSINT/WEBINT, investigations, or Trust & Safety)
  • Proven ability to manage and deliver research projects independently, from data collection to reporting
  • Fluent or native-level English (both written and spoken)
  • Strong analytical and writing skills, with the ability to synthesize large volumes of data into clear, actionable insights
  • Familiarity with online platforms and digital ecosystems, including social media, messaging, and content-sharing networks
  • Technical literacy: ability to work with spreadsheets, search operators, data collection tools, and AI-assisted workflows
  • Resilience to sensitive or disturbing content, including exposure to violent, extremist, or sexual materials

Preferred Qualifications
  • Additional language skills
  • Academic or professional background in international relations, political science, criminology, communication, or related fields
  • Experience in one or more domains: Counterterrorism, Hate Speech, Child Safety, Disinformation, or Organized Crime

Additional Requirements
  • Excellent organizational and multitasking abilities; able to manage multiple projects simultaneously
  • Proactive mindset, curiosity, and eagerness to learn about new digital ecosystems
  • Team-oriented, collaborative, and comfortable working in fast-paced, cross-functional environments
  • Capability to maintain professional boundaries and follow data sensitivity and privacy guidelines

All applicants will be required to complete a screening exam and background check.
