Job Description

Data Scientist

Akamai Technologies

• Investigate FP/FN and product escalations from PS and SOCC related to BMP and Account Protector. • Perform deep-dive analysis on traffic patterns, request signatures, behavioral signals, and telemetry to identify root causes. • Develop and validate targeted fixes — rule tuning, threshold adjustments, feature engineering — and communicate findings clearly to teams. • Analyze trends across case history to identify recurring FP/FN patterns and systemic gaps in detection coverage. • Author well-scoped, well-documented research tickets for novel or unresolved issues, providing sufficient context to accelerate resolution by the expert-DS team. • Serve as the technical bridge between PS/SOCC operations and the core data science research group — translating operational case data into actionable research signals.

Job Requirements

  • 2–5 years of experience in data science or applied analytics within a production environment
  • Strong proficiency in Python for data analysis and solid SQL skills for querying and analyzing large-scale event and telemetry datasets.
  • Hands-on experience in web and application security, including bot detection, credential stuffing, account takeover (ATO), fraud, and other forms of automated abuse.
  • Proven experience working with commercial bot mitigation, fraud detection, risk management, or application security platforms, including tools such as WAFs and bot detection solutions.
  • Solid understanding of Internet protocols such as TCP/IP, HTTP/S, DNS, and TLS/SSL, including how they are used and exploited in automated attack methods.
  • Experience analyzing multi-dimensional threat signals, including behavioral biometrics, device fingerprinting, IP intelligence, session behavior, and request patterns
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly present complex findings to both technical and non-technical audiences
