The Elastic Security Data Science team is looking for a Senior Data Scientist to develop machine learning technologies to detect and prevent malicious activity across Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints. We value autonomy, curiosity, fastidiousness, and questioning the status quo. You will collaborate with the broader Elastic Protections team, a diverse set of security researchers and data engineers who lend domain expertise to work with you to solve creative security problems.

Your responsibilities:
  • Working as part of the Protections team at Elastic, with other machine learning authorities and data engineers
  • Your primary focus will be growing out the supervised and unsupervised models within the Elastic Security platform
  • Gather implicit and explicit feedback from the platform we can collect to improve models
  • Design experimental ML jobs to identify compromised users
  • Participate in collaborative efforts to improve our security protections with malware researchers, threat guides, and other engineers
  • Design and develop data-driven solutions that can run on millions of endpoints, cloud-based infrastructure, or the Elastic SIEM.
Skills you will bring:
  • 4+ years of machine learning experience; strong preference for a focus on information security problems
