• You're looking for a Data Scientist to join our Data Sciences and ML Engineering team. You'll be building, shipping, and improving the models and LLM-powered systems that sit at the core of our security products. • This is a hands-on role on a small, focused team. You'll have real ownership over the models and pipelines you build, close collaboration with engineering and product, and the runway to go deep on the hard problems. • Your work will span a few areas: • Model development and research. Building classifiers, detectors, and scoring models on messy, high-stakes security data. Designing experiments, evaluating trade-offs, and iterating on architectures — not just hyperparameters. • LLM agent systems. Shaping the prompts, context, tool-use patterns, and supporting content that drive our LLM agents. • Production delivery. Shipping models behind real traffic, monitoring them, and improving them over time. • Evaluation and iteration. Building the evaluation harnesses and feedback loops that let us know whether a change is actually an improvement — often the hardest part of the work. Our models only improve for customers when our evaluations highlight what really matters.
