Senior🎓
Top SchoolJeffrey Gleason is a PhD computer scientist and Research Assistant at Northeastern University with a decade of experience applying field experiments and causal inference to Trust & Safety and platform governance. His work—published at CHI, WWW, ICWSM (two Best Paper awards), and FAccT—evaluates content moderation effectiveness, platform competition, and algorithmic bias to inform policy and operations. He has interned twice at Roblox, designing large-scale randomized experiments and dashboards that directly shaped moderation policy and operational targeting. Earlier roles in DARPA-funded projects honed his ML and interpretability skills, including weakly supervised segmentation and model auditing frameworks. Based in Boston, he is seeking Trust & Safety data science roles starting summer 2026 and brings a rare combination of rigorous causal methods, production experiment design, and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
