+ Create data-efficient modeling approaches (self-supervision, embedding models, sampling strategies, feature extraction).
+ Design inference strategies that work under tight cost, performance, and real-time constraints.
**Cross-Functional Technical Work**
Collaborate with Detection Engineering, Data Engineering, Red Team, and Threat Intelligence to define problem statements, understand attack patterns, and interpret telemetry.
+ Provide scientific insights and deep technical guidance to engineering partners building pipelines and detections.
+ Translate research prototypes into production-ready designs with engineering teams.
**Scientific Rigor**
+ Establish strong modeling baselines, validation methodologies, ablation studies, and well-defined success criteria.
+ Document findings, methodologies, and recommended approaches clearly and reproducibly.
+ Maintain awareness of current academic and industry research; apply relevant advances appropriately.
**Required Qualifications**
**Technical Expertise**
+ Deep knowledge of ML approaches relevant to security:
+ anomaly detection
+ statistical modeling
+ representation learning / embeddings
+ sequence models (RNNs, Transformers)
+ graph-based analysis
+ clustering and outlier detection
+ Strong understanding of:
+ adversarial ML challenges
+ noisy/weak/no-label environments
+ data imbalance and cost-sensitive modeling
+ model explainability and operational constraints
**Hands-On Skills**
+ Expert programming in Python, SQL; comfortable with Spark, Beam, Flink, or similar distributed data systems.
+ Ability to rapidly prototype models and experiment with large datasets using PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, or similar.
+ Experience building models that run in production, including monitoring, drift detection, and model evaluation.
**Experience**
+ PhD or Master's in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Applied Mathematics, or equivalent experience.
+ 10+ years of industry or research experience applying ML to real-world problems.
+ Experience with security telemetry, cloud logs, SIEM/EDR/XDR analytics, identity data, fraud detection, or similar adversarial domains strongly preferred.
+ Demonstrated impact through deployed models, patents, publications, or widely adopted research outputs.
