"Ha-Satan", which means the opposer or adversary, was not a specific character in the Torah, but would refer to anyone, angel or human.
I believe that UCLA Professor Henry Kelly mentions in his book, Satan: A Biography, considers that Satan holds the position, or in fact is the title of the position, of chief prosecutor (basically) for God. He monitors and tests Mankind to prove their worthiness to entering Heaven.
