As a Principal Data Science Security Engineer, you will be part of the Global Security Detection Engineering team. This global team is responsible for detecting and responding to sophisticated cyber threats and attacks. In your role you will leverage a variety of tools and resources to develop traditional ML models and Agentic AI that proactively detect, investigate, and respond to emerging and / or persistent threats impacting the client and / or its customers
Responsibilities :
- Assist with the development of a multi agent AI system leveraging current industry knowledge around AI Engineering
- Researching, developing, implementing, and managing data-driven algorithms, AI / ML techniques, & classical statistics for threat detection, behavior analytics, vulnerability assessment, prediction, and prevention
- Communicating complex data findings, model predictions, and the implications to non-technical stakeholders using reports and visualizations
- Staying abreast of the latest research, developments, experimentations, and products in the AI / ML and cybersecurity landscapes to identify new opportunities
- You will be providing hands-on solutions, customization and tuning, automation, and use case development for the SIEM, SOAR, and other stakeholder requirements for threat informed defense strategies
- You will support leading production level projects to completion as a contributor and a collaborator between multiple stakeholder teams including the Security Operations Center (SOC), Threat Intelligence, Incident Response, and Incident Response
- You will be working on a globally distributed team and expected to create and present strategies, technical plans, and architecture to audiences of technical and executive leadership levels when asked.
- You will also maintain existing internal code, use cases, and further extend SIEM and SOAR integrations aligned to the Detection Engineering program efforts
