They're leveraging GenAI to automate classification, risk prioritization, and remediation across complex environments.

THE ROLE

  • Collaborate with engineers, data scientists, and annotators

SKILLS & EXPERIENCE
Must-Have:

  • 4+ years in Data Science/Machine Learning (BSc/MSc in CS/STEM preferred)
  • Strong Python skills
  • Proven experience building agentic systems end-to-end
  • Hands-on with LangGraph, Small Agent, or similar frameworks
  • Experience with self-hosted and API-based LLMs
  • Familiarity with NumPy, Pandas, and compiled languages (e.g., Go)

Nice-to-Have:

  • Deploying open-source solutions on AWS
  • Background in big data, security, or cybersecurity
  • Passion for AI/ML trends and open-source tools
