Role Overview

As our lead AI/ML Engineer , you will design, build, and scale the intelligence layer powering our next-generation security products. You will turn complex datasets—including configurations, security alerts, and raw network logs—into production-ready AI capabilities that drive automated analysis, reasoning, and intelligent recommendations.

Key Responsibilities

- Model Development & Tuning : Train, fine-tune, and evaluate ML/DL models for pattern matching, anomaly detection, and classification across massive, heterogeneous security datasets.
- Ensure AI Trust & Alignment : Implement strict guardrails, evaluation frameworks, and safety alignment techniques to ensure all model outputs and recommendations are deterministic, safe, and highly accurate.
- Establish MLOps : Build and maintain scalable ML pipelines (from data preprocessing to model monitoring in production), collaborating closely with Data and Product Engineers to ensure low-latency, secure inferences.

Required Experience & Skills

- Experience :6+ years of professional experience deploying machine learning models into production, with 1+ years focused on LLMs and generative AI**. Experience in the cybersecurity domain is highly valued.

- AI/NLP Stack : Deep expertise in Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow,



and frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Hugging Face .

- Data & Vector Systems : Hands-on experience with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Qdrant, Milvus) and semantic search strategies over complex, technical datasets.

- Production Engineering : Solid understanding of API design, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and cloud ML platforms (AWS SageMaker, Azure ML, or GCP Vertex AI). :

- Mindset : A builder's mentality—comfortable setting technical direction, navigating ambiguity, and executing fast in a small team.
