Senior ML Engineer

You will prioritize engineering rigor by implementing advanced MLOps methodologies, including automated CI/CD pipelines, robust testing protocols, and comprehensive model performance monitoring. Your goal is to deliver models that the SOC trusts implicitly by minimizing alert fatigue through high-fidelity, production-hardened detections. •

You will influence the security engineering roadmap by building the internal tooling, feature stores, and libraries that enable rapid scaling of machine learning services. You will treat security telemetry as a first-class citizen, ensuring a closed-loop system for automated response and mitigation. •

You will ensure that all production services are built with an "attacker's mindset," implementing defenses against model evasion and ensuring high availability under high-volume load.

Demonstrated success in implementing comprehensive MLOps methodologies for high-volume data, encompassing automated deployment, CI/CD, and real-time performance monitoring. •

Deep understanding of containerization (Docker) and workflow orchestration (Kubernetes, Apache Airflow) for managing automated, production-grade ML pipelines. •

Mastery of Python programming with an emphasis on software engineering best practices, including scalable code design and API development for real-time inference. •

3-5+ years in machine learning engineering or data science, with at least 2+ years dedicated to deploying anomaly detection and clustering systems in a production cybersecurity environment. •

Solid foundation in implementing feature stores and low-latency feature retrieval techniques for real-time model scoring. •

Demonstrated experience building and deploying ML models to production, conducting research or working collaboratively with Machine Learning (ML) research teams. •

Ability to take ownership of complex engineering problems, structure data-driven solutions, and work with minimal supervision.

Masters or PhD in a quantitative field. •

Background in offensive security or Red Teaming to improve system resilience. •

Practical knowledge of security frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and OCSF to inform the engineering of detection logic. •

Previous experience in a mentoring role for junior engineers, specifically in production engineering and MLOps.
