• Collaborate across teams to integrate ML-driven insights into the platform and apply automation and analytics to reduce analyst workload and enhance detection fidelity
• Provide architectural guidance across engineering based on the fast-paced world of GenAI, Agents, and classic ML models, including those developed by our internal R&D teams

Qualifications

• 12+ years of experience inclusive of data architecture and AI/ML, with a track record of designing and implementing large-scale data systems and production-grade ML solutions
• Proficiency in Python (for data processing and ML pipelines), cloud platforms (AWS and/or Azure including data storage, compute services, and security controls), and MLOps best practices
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field or equivalent

Requirements

• Security domain knowledge including SOC operations, threat detection methodologies, log formats, common attack techniques, and understanding of how ML can enhance detection and response
• Familiarity with modern data pipelines, streaming technologies, and AI Agent frameworks
• Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code, containerization, and CI/CD for data and model deployments

Benefits

• Various health plans
• Time off plans for vacation and sick time
• Parental leave options
